Rayleigh Wave Test Block

Aluminium test block to carry out experiments on the subject of non-destructive testing using Rayleigh waves

The material sample for investigation with Rayleigh waves has an intact surface side, at which the velocity of Rayleigh waves can be determined in transmission mode. Another side has different material defects that can be detected and localised by means of the Rayleigh waves. A special process in material testing is crack depth measuring using Rayleigh waves. For this purpose, on one side there are several cracks of varying depths, from which the signal amplitude of the Rayleigh wave can be measured.
