Background: This paper deals with the possible field of application of ultrasonic Surface Reflection Method (SRM) to achieve the mechanical characteristics of isotropic materials. This method is based on the measurement of the amplitude of the reflected wave at the interface between reference material and the material to be characterised. Objective: The purpose of Part 1 of this paper is to establish the theoretical conditions for the applicability of SRM. Methods: First, the theoretical formulas necessary to obtain the mechanical properties of the material to be tested will be established. Then, on the basis of these analytical formulas, the validity of the results for the material to be studied will be discussed according to the choice of the mechanical properties of the reference material through uncertainty calculations. The measurand error of SRM is then compared to that of traditional methods (transmission, transmission in water bath, pulse-echo). Results: The analytical solution to the inverse problem (the mechanical characteristics of the tested medium based on those of the reference medium and the waves' amplitude) will be given. From this analytical solution, an analysis of the measurand error will be performed and a method for choosing the reference material will be proposed. Conclusions: It appears that SRM is better suited than traditional methods in two specific cases: measurement of small deviations of mechanical properties from a reference material or characterisation of high damping materials. In Part 2 of this paper, the practical conditions of applicability of the method are described and then applied to different kinds of materials. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
