Abstract
Increasing quantity of spent nuclear fuel that must be under national and international control requires a novel approach to safeguard techniques and equipment. One of the proposed approaches is utilize intrinsic features of casks with spent fuel. In this article an application of a phased array ultrasonic method is considered. This study describes an experimental results on ultrasonic fingerprinting of austenitic steel seam weld.

Summary
1. Introduction Modern ultrasonic testing (UT) procedure more often starts to use phased array transducers for both manual and automated inspections. Reconstruction of inspection results possible only with automated testing, because it is necessary to provide a precise data on position of a transducer. Ultrasonic fingerprinting procedure is requiring a precise position data . This paper describes a series of experiments on immersion ultrasonic fingerprinting procedure.
