Residual stress and its distribution are the key indicators to ensure structural integrity.
However, current ultrasonic methods are not appropriate for complex stress measurement …

Two compressional wave modes, a fast P1 and a slow P2, propagate through fluid‐
saturated porous and permeable media. This contribution focuses on new experimental …

Ultrasound wave reflection from one of the crystal faces is the convenient way to arouse the
acoustic beam with a desired propagation direction in acousto-optic cells with collinear and …

Angle of incidence amplitude variations of acoustic waves reflected from an interface is
increasingly important in acoustic sea floor imaging and seismological studies. Such …

Laboratory and field measurements often fail to identify small-scale variations in rock elastic
properties. Due to limited spatial resolution, conventional laboratory methods cannot …

Transit-time flow meters based on guided ultrasonic wave propagation in the pipe spool
have several advantages compared to traditional inline ultrasonic flow metering. The …

The variations in the strength of seismic reflections with both angles of incidence and
azimuth are being used to constrain the orientations and degrees of mechanical anisotropy …

Due to depositional, diagenetic, and structural processes, reservoir rocks are rarely
homogeneous, often exhibiting significant short-range variations in elastic properties. Such …

For the past decades, plate transmission effects have been extensively studied with the
incentive of applying the knowledge in GUW methods in the industry. With these studies …

Current evolutions in transducer design, such as phased arrays, but more importantly,
metamaterials-based acoustic lenses, potentially enable generating specific beam shapes …
