(2009-05-15)This thesis demonstrates the practicability of using Resonant Ultrasound Spectroscopy (RUS) in combination with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to determine the size and location of a defect in a material of known geometry ...
-
(2011-08-02)Recent developments in ultrasound elastography have suggested the possibility of using elastographic methods to estimate the temporal mechanical properties of complex tissues. In this context, elastographic methods to ...
