Comparison between three mathematical models of three well defined ultrasonic NDT cases

Paper i proceeding, 2020

Ultrasonic nondestructive testing (NDT) is commonly used for in-service inspection in different areas. But reliability of NDT method is highly dependent on the equipment and crack features. Although, it is possible to use thoroughly validated mathematical models to avoid complicated and costly experimental work, when it is necessary to qualify new procedures. Finite Element Model (FEM) is a powerful tool, which is commonly used for such cases. In this paper three mathematical models of three well defined cases will be compared with each other.
