[EN] This paper presents a novel application of Independent Component
Analysis (ICA) to the evaluation of ashlar masonry walls inspected with
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR). ICA is used as preprocessor to eliminate ...
[EN] This paper presents an application of ultrasounds and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) for analysis of historic walls. The objectives are to characterize the deformation of a historic wall under ...
[EN] This work envisages a detailed study of two-dimensional defect localization and reconstruction, using laser generated ultrasound and its application as a remotely controlled non-destructive testing method. As an ...
[EN] In this work, we numerically investigate the diffraction management of longitudinal elastic waves propagating in a two-dimensional metallic phononic crystal. We demonstrate that this structure acts as an "ultrasonic ...
[EN] Nondestructive testing of metallic objects that may contain embedded defects of different sizes is an important application in many industrial branches for quality control. Most of these techniques allow defect detection ...

[EN] Structures and elements buried beneath heritage buildings are frequent but are often unknown and inaccessible. Therefore, they are difficult to locate in general if an archaeological excavation is not carried out, ...
[EN] This paper presents a prospective analysis of non destructive testing (NDT) based on
ultrasounds in the field of archaeology applications. Classical applications of ultrasounds techniques are reviewed, ...

[EN] The test for determining the resonance frequencies has traditionally been used to investigate the mechanical integrity of concrete cores, to assess the conformity of concrete constituents in different accelerated ...
[EN] In this paper, a new approach for characterizing material damage, using ultrasonic waves, is proposed. Two
concrete series with two types of cement with different C3A content and similar mechanical properties ...
