| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For the safety of materials and structures, nonlinear ultrasound testing are highly demanded that enables evaluation of closed cracks. Though laser ultrasound (LU) using pulsed laser generation of ultrasound enabling remote testing is useful, nonlinear testing by LU has not been realized.
Therefore, we developed a novel nonlinear LU method in this study where a laser pulse of finite energy is irradiated on the tested object, and image is formed by shift and summation of waveforms detected at different positions. Then we obtain difference of image intensities formed for different laser energy, and evaluate nonlinear response at closed cracks. Then we verified the developed method by performing a damped double node (DDN) model simulation using parameters used in a real LU in-process testing equipment, where a closed crack with 10 MPa closure stress was located near a void. It was shown that the effect of void can be successfully suppressed by the developed method.
