Abstract

Abstract A multilayered neural network model is used here for solving an inverse sizing problem in the field of ultrasonic nondestructive evaluation. In particular, a feed-forward network trained via the error backpropagation algorithm is shown to be able to invert size and orientation information for circular cracks from time domain ultrasonic data. Test results of the network's performance on both theoretical and experimental data are presented. A new adaptive learning scheme for improving the training speed of such methods is also presented.
