Abstract text:
Single crystal materials are anisotropic in nature, and their structures and properties are directional dependent. While most metal alloys are often taken as isotropic when their elastic and mechanical properties are evaluated in macroscale, however, for metal alloys fabricated by additive manufacture, it has been noticed that the elastic and mechanical properties of some metal alloys show some anisotropic behavior due to the particular manufacture processing used. This anisotropy can be characterized using traditional tensile testing method, but multiple samples must be made at different fabrication direction to conduct tensile testing. In this study, we propose a non-destructive testing system using a line-focus ultrasonic transducer to characterize the elastic property anisotropy by evaluating the Rayleigh Surface Wave velocity on the solid surface. The Rayleigh Surface velocity is calculated by using time resolved defocusing method which based on the change of time delay wave form at different focusing location.
The elastic property anisotropy of metal alloys caused by fabrication process is investigated by measuring different metal alloys fabricated by various additive manufacturing approaches, while the elastic anisotropy of single crystal silicon wafer is studied along different surface wave propagation directions. The results show a variation of the elastic properties along different measurement directions. This study demonstrated the line-focused ultrasonic transducer system would be applied to for elastic property characterization nondestructively for materials processing evaluations.
