GEOMETRY COMPENSATING TRANSDUCER ATTACHMENTS FOR ULTRASONIC INSPECTION OF CHAMFERS OR COUNTERSUNK SURFACES

摘要

A geometry compensating transducer attachment for ultrasonic inspection of a structure includes a geometry-compensating structure having at least one angled surface configured to engage the structure to be inspected, and the geometry-compensating structure having an acoustic velocity generally matching an acoustic velocity of the structure to be inspected.
