ABSTRACTMethod of electromagnetic acoustic resonance (EMAR) was applied to the noncontact measurement of the shear wave attenuation during the creep test of 2.25Cr-1Mo steels. Two electromagnetic acoustic transducers were manufactured for this purpose, which generate the polarized shear waves through the magnetostriction effect. The attenuation coefficient increased with the creep deformation. The evolution range of the attenuation was beyond 0.1 μs−1 before the failure, which was much larger than the attenuation variation among the samples.

And Performance

Nickel and nickel-based composites are of vital importance in many fields, while temperature loading can greatly influence the strength and performance of the materials. Nondestructive evaluation and characterization of such thermal damage can be used to predict the failure of metallic structures, thermal barrier coatings and so on, especially in a non-contact way under certain strict circumstances, such as testing at high temperature or in radiative environment. Herein, a contactless ultrasonic technique employing electromagnetic acoustic transducers (EMATs) combined with the resonance ultrasound spectroscopy is applied to make up the low energy transition efficiency of EMATs and enhance the signal-to-noise ratio of ultrasonic testing signals. The method is adopted to assess the thermal damages of different levels in artificially heat loaded nickel plates. The damage sensitivity of third order harmonics generated from shear waves is discussed, along with linear ultrasonic features including wave velocity and attenuation. Experimental results show that the proposed nonlinear electromagnetic acoustic resonance (EMAR) technique can be used to evaluate the thermal damage in ferromagnetic material with improved reliability and sensitivity over linear ones.

Interval attenuation measurements provide valuable information for reservoir characterization and lithology discrimination. We extend the attenuation layer-stripping method of Behura and Tsvankin to mode-converted (PS) waves with the goal of estimating the S-wave interval attenuation coefficient. By identifying PP and PS events with shared ray segments and applying the [Formula: see text] method, we first perform kinematic construction of pure shear (SS) events in the target layer and overburden. Then, the modified spectral-ratio method is used to compute the effective shear-wave attenuation coefficient for the target reflection. Finally, application of the dynamic version of velocity-independent layer stripping to the constructed SS reflections yields the interval S-wave attenuation coefficient in the target layer. The attenuation coefficient estimated for a range of source-receiver offsets can be inverted for the interval attenuation parameters. The method is tested on multicomponent synthetic data generated with the anisotropic reflectivity method for layered VTI (transversely isotropic with a vertical symmetry axis) and orthorhombic media.

AbstractQuantitative mechanical properties of biological tissues can be mapped using the shear wave elastography technique. This technology has demonstrated a great potential in various organs but shows a limit due to wave attenuation in biological tissues. An option to overcome the inherent loss in shear wave magnitude along the propagation pathway may be to stimulate tissues closer to regions of interest using alternative motion generation techniques. The present study investigated the feasibility of generating shear waves by applying a Lorentz force directly to tissue mimicking samples for magnetic resonance elastography applications. This was done by combining an electrical current with the strong magnetic field of a clinical MRI scanner. The Local Frequency Estimation method was used to assess the real value of the shear modulus of tested phantoms from Lorentz force induced motion. Finite elements modeling of reported experiments showed a consistent behavior but featured wavelengths larger than measured ones. Results suggest the feasibility of a magnetic resonance elastography technique based on the Lorentz force to produce an shear wave source.

The creep deformation and damage evolution of nickel base superalloy (Waspaloy) at 700 °C are studied using the classic Kachanov–Rabotnov (KR) and a recently developed Sin-hyperbolic (Sinh) model. Uniaxial creep deformation and Bridgman rupture data collected from literature are used to determine the model constants and to compare the KR and the Sinh solutions. Finite-element (FE) simulations on a single eight-node element are conducted to validate the accuracy of the FE code. It is observed that KR cannot predict the creep deformation, damage, and rupture life of nickel base superalloys accurately using one set of constants for all the stress levels. The Sinh model exhibits a superior ability to predict the creep behavior using one set of constants for all the stress levels. Finite-element analysis (FEA) on 3D Bridgman notched Waspaloy specimen using the Sinh model is conducted. The results show that the Sinh model when combined with a representative stress equation and calibrated with experimental data can accurately predict the “notch effect” observed in the rupture life of notched specimen. Contour plots of damage evolution and stress redistribution are presented. It is demonstrated that the Sinh model is less stress sensitive, produces unconditional critical damage equal to unity at rupture, exhibits a more realistic damage distribution around the crack tip, and offers better crack growth analysis than KR.
