A1 - Krause, Martin T1 - Ultrasonic imaging of defects in known anisotropic and inmomogeneous structures with fast synthetic aperture methodes N2 - Imaging methods like Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique (SAFT) are based on the principle of propagation of the measured ultrasonic wave field back to field sources. In the case of a pulse-echo measurement, this back propagation under some approximating conditions leads to an image of the scattering object with well known properties and imperfections. The back propagation through the object which is under concern needs the knowledge of material properties in respect of the wave propagation. If these properties are known, we can use imaging algorithms like SAFT with all their advantages (computational speed and robustness) not only for isotropic but also for anisotropic material; moreover, the inverse ropagation concept allows crossing boundaries between materials, even if the materials are anisotropic. Examples of this concept are given with modelled and measured data for tendon duct imaging in concrete structures, for 3D imaging of air cavities in wood specimens and for imaging of defects in anisotropic welds.

Das neu entwickelte 3D-Verfahren berücksichtigt den anisotropen Aufbau des Holzes. Die Bildschnitte und Projektionen werden aus flächigen Ultraschallaufnahmen berechnet. Die Messungen erfolgen an Probekörpern sowie an Bauteilen aus der Praxis. In dem Forschungsvorhaben wird die für Holz neue 3D-Rekonstruktionsrechnung verwendet und mit dem Ziel weiterentwickelt, unter Berücksichtigung der anisotropen Struktur des Holzes eine dreidimensional aufgelöste Abbildung von Reflektoren im Inneren der Holzbauteile zu ermöglichen. Damit werden die bisher für Holzbauteile zur Verfügung stehenden Verfahren entscheidend ergänzt, weil nun eine hochgenaue dreidimensionale Abbildung erreichbar ist (Auflösung: 20 mm und besser).

T1 - Ultrasonic Imaging Methods for Investigation of Post-tensioned Concrete Structures: A Study of Interfaces at Artificial Grouting Faults and Its Verification N2 - This paper presents the progress of successful location of grouting faults in tendon ducts with ultrasonic imaging. The examples were obtained in the research group FOR 384 funded by DFG (German Research Foundation). The co-operation of experimental research and modeling allowed imaging and identification of grouted and ungrouted areas of tendon ducts (including strands) in a large test specimen (40 m²). In addition to the criteria for indicating grouting faults in post-tensioned ducts known until now the phase evaluation of reflected ultrasonic pulses is described. Experiments and modeling of wave propagation are presented for reflections at metal plates in concrete (thickness range 0.5 mm to 40 mm) and for tendon ducts including strands. The main part of the progress was achieved by automated measurements using dry contact transducers, 3D-SAFT reconstruction including phase evaluation and modeling considering wave propagation for typical elastic parameters and exact experimental site conditions. The results for shear waves as well as for pressure waves are compared in the frequency range from 50 kHz to 120 kHz.

The analysis of the phase of complex reflection coefficients together with the properties of imaging algorithms can help to characterize and to classify indications of defects in concrete buildings. This paper describes a method to extract phase information from measurements and SAFT reconstructed images. The influencing factors like material properties, transducer characteristics, and imaging algorithms based on Born or Physical Optics approximations are elaborated. Simulated and experimental results are briefly discussed.

The goal is to understand the physical phenomena of electromagnetic wave propagation and scattering in detail in order to optimize imaging algorithms like SAFT (Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique as the NDT version of SAR) in its 3D diffraction tomographic FT-SAFT formulation (Fourier-Transform-SAFT). Therefore we start with the simulation of a "simple" specimen and switch to a more realistic one in order to check whether simulation and experiment can give comparable results. Basically, this could be confirmed, but, nevertheless, various parametric studies will still have to be performed in the future.

A1 - Effner, Ute T1 - Ultrasonic imaging of defects in building elements made from timber N2 - There is a great demand for non-destructive testing methods for quality assurance and to assess the safety and durability of wooden structures. Ultrasonic echo technique with shear waves in the frequency range of 50 kHz is one of those promising methods and is already frequently applied for usual and glued laminated timber. The article describes the development and first results for an imaging method for this purpose. The highly anisotropic properties of the ultrasonic velocity have to be considered. A 3D-SAFT (Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique) imaging scheme is developed initially for synthetic data resulting from modelling the elastic wave propagation. The main part of the paper describes the experimental validation of this evaluation technique by experimental studies applying automated ultrasonic scanning techniques. 3D ultrasonic imaging results are described for test specimens made from pine and spruce wood. Another object of investigation was a pedestrian bridge made from siberian larch.
