Abstract

Equivalent flaw sizing using ultrasonic waves is an approach whereby shape and orientation information of a defect are obtained in terms of a best-fit simple geometry that is able to represent the major aspects of the flaw. Separate examples of this approach have previously been developed for volumetric flaws and cracks using the Born and Kirchhoff approximations, respectively. Here, these separate algorithms are unified into a single algorithm capable of sizing both volumetric flaws and cracks. Some examples of the performance of this unified algorithm on both synthetic and experimental data are also given.
