Acoustic detection of hidden objects and material discontinuities
Robert W. Haupt,Ken Rolt +1 more
TL;DR: Sonic excitation is used to locate, without contact, an object or defect beneath a surface as mentioned in this paper, which may include damage and flaws in load bearing concrete structures wrapped in plastic, fiberglass or composite sheathing, while buried objects amenable to detection include landmines or above ground mines.
Standoff Acoustic Laser Technique to Locate Buried Land Mines
Robert W. Haupt,Kenneth D. Rolt +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a parametric acoustic array (PAA) source is used to transmit a highly directive sound beam from a safe distance to induce mechanical vibrations in both plastic and metal mines, which can then be measured remotely with a laser Doppler vibrometer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser vibrometry from a moving ground vehicle
TL;DR: By subtracting the response of an accelerometer and an optical reference channel, it is shown that the excess noise from vehicle vibrations can be reduced by a factor of up to 33, to obtain nearly speckle-and-shot-noise-limited performance from 0.3 to 47 kHz.
Journal ArticleDOI
Operational and defect parameters concerning the acoustic-laser vibrometry method for FRP-reinforced concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, an acoustic-laser vibrometry method for nondestructive testing was studied by altering operational and defect parameters to determine their effects on measured signatures and system performance.
