Description
Detecting and monitoring corrosion (e.g., galvanic, dissimilar metal contact, salt water induced, fresh water induced, etc.) and its related physical property degradations for 5XXX-series aluminum in harsh environments (high humidity and/or flooding, high temperatures, electromagnetic interference, etc) is calling for the development of a new type of NDE tool. MicroXact Inc. is proposing to develop such a system based on ultrasonic computer tomography approach. The proposed solution will provide two-dimensional mapping of densities and Young"s modulus of the device under test (DUT) with
