I. Ihara et al., DETERMINATION OF ULTRASONIC-ATTENUATION IN SURFACE-LAYER OF MATERIALSBY ULTRASONIC REFLECTIVITY MEASUREMENT, Electronics Letters, 29(22), 1993, pp. 1999-2000
A novel method for the determination of ultrasonic attenuation in the
surface layer of materials is proposed through an ultrasonic spectrosc
opic technique. The method is based on absolute measurement of the ref
lection coefficient of the materials and spectral behaviour analysis.
An experiment is demonstrated for annealed carbon steel.
