Abstract

A nonlinear ultrasonic parameter is defined by the ratio of displacement amplitude of the fundamental frequency component to that of the second-order harmonic frequency component. In this study, the ultrasonic displacement amplitude of an SUS316 specimen was measured via a piezo-electric-based method to identify the validity of piezo-electric detection method. For comparison, the ultrasonic displacement was also determined via a laser-based Fabry-Pérot interferometer. The experimental results for both measurements were in good agreement. Additionally, the stability of the repeated test results from the piezo-electric method exceeded that of the laser-interferometric method. This result indicated that the piezo-electric detection method can be utilized to measure a nonlinear ultrasonic parameter due to its excellent stability although it involves a complicated process.

음향 비선형 파라미터는 입사시킨 기본주파수 성분의 변위 진폭 크기와 재료의 비선형성에 의하여 발생된 2차 고조파 성분의 변위 진폭 크기의 비로 정의된다. 본 연구에서는, 압전소자 방식을 이용한 초음파 절대변위진폭 측정의 타당성을 확인하고자, 이 기법을 통해 초음파가 입사된 SUS316 시편의 절대변위진폭을 측정하였다. 또한 비교를 위해, 레이저를 통한 패브리패럿 방식의 간섭계를 이용하여 동일 시편에 대한 절대변위진폭을 측정하였다. 두 가지 기법을 통한 실험 결과는 서로 잘 일치하는 경향을 보였으며, 특히 압전형 수신 기법의 경우 기존의 레이저 변위측정기법에 비하여 반복 측정의 안정성이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과로부터 압전형 수신 기법은 기존 레이저 측정 기법에 비하여 과정이 복잡하지만, 미세변위를 더 안정적으로 측정할 수 있어 음향 비선형 파라미터의 측정에 유리할 것으로 기대된다.
