Ultrasonic Testing (UT)

Ultrasonic Testing (UT) is one of the most widely used methods of nondestructive testing (NDT). Its primary application is the detection and characterization of internal discontinuities. It is also used to detect surface discontinuities, to define bond characteristics, and to measure thickness.

High-frequency sound waves are introduced into the material to detect surface and subsurface discontinuities. The sound waves travel through the material with some loss of energy (attenuation) and are reflected at interfaces. The reflected sound beam is detected and analyzed to define the presence and location of discontinuities.
