In this work we present the optimisation of the oxidative steam reforming of ethanol for
hydrogen production in order to feed a Solid Polymer Fuel Cell (SPFC) over a Ni–Cu/SiO2 …

Ultrasonic testing of austenitic welds prepared by two different welding processes is studied
in this paper. The two welding processes considered are shielded metal arc welding …

Conventional ultrasonic detection methods are commonly used for detecting austenitic
stainless steel weld structure. The anisotropy and inhomogeneity of the weld produces a …

Ultrasonic inspection of austenitic welds is challenging due to their highly anisotropic and
heterogeneous microstructure. The weld anisotropy causes a steering of the ultrasonic …

It is challenging to inspect austenitic welds nondestructively using ultrasonic waves because
the spatially varying elastic anisotropy of weld microstructures can lead to the deviation of …

Featured Application Development of a precise Ultrasonic Testing of Welds using material
modelisation: a solution and its development. Abstract To ensure and to demonstrate the …

Rapid and precise detection of void disease in ballastless track is fundamental to the repair
and maintenance of high-speed rail. Under the difference in material attributes of ballastless …

The knowledge of the anisotropic and heterogeneous behaviour of the material is the key
point for understanding ultrasonic testing. In the case of austenitic stainless steel multipass …

In order to improve the performance of defect sizing and locating in the ultrasonic inspection
of austenitic welds, it is important to predict ultrasonic propagation paths using ray-tracing …

Ultrasound propagation in inhomogeneous anisotropic materials is difficult to examine
because of the directional dependency of elastic properties. Simulation tools play an …
