The in-plane component of the wavefield provides valuable information about media properties from seismology to nondestructive testing. A new compact scanning laser ultrasonic interferometer collects light scattered away from the angle of incidence to prov ...
Electromagnetic techniques present definite advantages for Non Destructive Testing such as no need for surface couplant, potential for miniaturization, and fast scanning rates. They suffer, however, from a lack of reliability when crack sizing capabilities ...
Micromechanics is a booming research area experiencing the development of new advanced testing methods at small dimensions A relatively young but very popular technique involves uniaxial compressing micrometer and sub-micrometer sized objects, usually in t ...
Configurable high-performance bias current reference circuits are useful in complex mixed-signal chips. This paper presents the design of a configurable current reference array with ultra wide dynamic range (DR). A coarse-fine architecture using octal coar ...

Phase-contrast imaging at laboratory-based x-ray sources using grating interferometers has been developed over the last few years for x-ray energies of up to 28 keV. Here, we show first phase-contrast projection and tomographic images recorded at significa ...
In a method for determining geometrical characteristics (d) of an anomaly (12) which changes the electrical conductivity in the region near the surface of an electrically conducting, in particular a metallic test object (10), a considerable simplification ...
From February 2007 to May 2008, 18 short length conductor sections have been tested in SULTAN for design verification and manufacturer qualification of the ITER Toroidal Field (TF) conductor. The test program is focussed on the current sharing temperature, ...
This paper presents the results of a comprehensive experimental study of the desiccation of fine-grained soils. Air-drying of initially saturated soil slabs in controlled conditions is investigated, by performing three kinds of tests: free desiccation test ...
Significant progress has been achieved in the international research effort on reduced activation ferritic/martensitic steels for fusion structural applications. Because this class of steels is the leading structural material for test blankets in ITER and ...
