Ultrasound is currently used in a wide spectrum of applications
ranging from medical imaging to metal cutting. This book is about
using ultrasound in nondestructive evaluation (NDE) inspections.
Ultrasonic NDE uses high-frequency acoustic/elastic waves to
evaluate components without affecting their integrity or
performance. This technique is commonly used in industry
(particularly in aerospace and nuclear power) to inspect
safety-critical parts for flaws during in-service use. Other
important uses of ultrasonic NDE involve process control functions
during manufacturing and fundamental materials characterization
studies. It is not difficult to set up an ultrasonic NDE
measurement system to launch waves into a component and monitor the
waves received from defects, such as cracks, even when those
defects are deep within the component. It is difficult however to
interpret quantitatively the signals received in such an ultrasonic
NDE measurement process. For example based on the ultrasonic signal
received from a crack, what is the size, shape, and orientation of
the crack producing the signal? Answering such questions requires
evaluation procedures based on a detailed knowledge of the physics
of the entire ultrasonic measurement process. One approach to
obtaining such knowledge is to couple quantitative experiments
closely with detailed models of the entire ultrasonic measurement
system itself. We refer to such models here as ultrasonic NDE
measurement models. In other areas of engineering, models have
revolutionized how engineering is practiced. A classic example is
the impact of the finite-element method on elastic stress analysis.
