Abstract:
Impedance-based Non-Destructive Evaluation for Additive Manufacturing (INDEAM) is rooted in the field of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). INDEAM generalizes the structure-to-itself comparisons characteristic of the SHM process through introduction of inter-part comparisons: instead of comparing a structure to itself over time, potentially-damaged structures are compared to known-healthy reference structures. The purpose of INDEAM is to provide an alternative to conventional nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques for additively manufactured (AM) parts. In essence, the geometrical comple

Abstract:
The determination of material properties for very small specimens such as biological cells or semiconductor microchips is extremely difficult and has been a challenging issue for several decades. One important constraint during these measurements is not to harm the specimens during the test process because the specimens, biological cells in particular, are vulnerable to the test itself even during a short period of testing time.Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) is the only suitable precess for such applications. It is fast, causes no disturbance and can give a real time response while being co

Abstract:
This work is aimed at developing a methodology for inspecting large plates, used in civil infrastructure, by Lamb waves. The traditional methods inspecting infrastructure are based on scattering of elastic waves from internal defects and on time of flight measurements. The methods based on elastic wave scattering can only detect defects larger than the wavelength of ultrasound used. The time of flight measurements have proven to be unreliable for strength analysis. This work investigates the potential of the Lamb wave technique to detect small defects when Lamb waves propagate over large dista

Abstract:
Cold rolled carbon steel 1018C is widely used in pressurized fuel pipelines. For those structures, stress corrosion cracking (SCC) can pose a significant problem because cracks initiate late in the lifetime and often unexpectedly, but grow fast once they get started. To ensure a safe operation, it is crucial that any damage can be detected before the structural stability is reduced by large cracks. In the early stages of SCC, microstructural changes occur which increase the acoustic nonlinearity of the material. Therefore, an initially monochromatic Rayleigh wave is distorted and measurable hi

It still needs to be improved on some aspects, three of which include synthesizing industrially useable graphene films under safe conditions, visualizing the domain boundaries of the continuous graphene, and understanding the kinetic features of the Cu-CVD process.
