Imaging of the Elastic Wave Propagation in Concrete Using Scanning Techniques: Application for Impact-Echo and Ultrasonic Echo Methods
Source abstract
Abstract
Acoustic NDT methods like ultrasonic echo and impact-echo are successfully used for NDT of concrete structures. This paper describes useful techniques for a detailed experimental study of the elastic wave propagation, which is highly relevant for the interpretation of the results obtained from practical measurement applications.
