Ultrasonic testing, often referred to as ultrasound or UT, is a non-destructive testing method that uses high-frequency sound waves to detect flaws or characterize materials. These sound waves, with frequencies above the range of human hearing, are transmitted into a material. When they encounter a discontinuity, such as a crack, void, or inclusion, the waves are reflected back to a receiver. By analyzing the time it takes for the waves to return and the characteristics of the reflected signal, the presence, location, and size of defects can be determined. Ultrasonic testing is widely used in various industries, including aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, and civil engineering, for inspecting welds, castings, forgings, and composite materials. It can also be used for thickness measurements and to assess material properties. The effectiveness of ultrasonic testing depends on factors such as the material's acoustic properties, the type and orientation of the defect, and the skill of the operator. Specialized equipment, including transducers that generate and receive the ultrasonic waves and display devices, are used for this inspection process.
