Applications of Non – Destructive Testing (NDT) are very broad varying from the medical to heavy industries. Several advanced NDT methods, mainly developed form of the conventional methods, are used to render the technique more flexible and easier to interpret. Ultrasonic Phased Array method can be employed in almost any test, where conventional Ultrasonic Testing (UT) has traditionally been used. The benefits of Phased Array technology over conventional UT come from its ability to use multiple elements to steer, focus and scan beams with a single transducer assembly. In this study, the advantages and limitations of the Phased Array system will be investigated via using several test blocks, prepared from different types of steels, having well-defined artificial defects. The reliability of the Phased Array and conventional Ultrasonic Testing methods will be compared using a statistical approach, the Probability of Detection (PoD).

Determination of residual stress state in SAE/AISI 8620 carburized steel by non-destructive testing methods
Kaleli, Tuğçe; Gür, Cemil Hakan; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2017)
Industrial performance of the carburized steels is mainly dependent on the residual stress state in the carburized layer that is controlled by the process parameters such as carburizing temperature and time. Non-destructive evaluation of the material properties and residual stress state has been gained importance for industrial applications due to its advantages such as measurement speed and complete control possibility of the components by automation. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the efficiency...
Computerized test procedure for industrial radiographic examination of metallic welded joints
Güneş, E. Evren; Doyum, Bülent; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2004)
Radiography is an extensively used NDT method, especially in nuclear, aerospace and automotive industries where optimal designs call for greater reliability. The rules corresponding to industrial radiography are defined in a system of radiographic standards. The standards related to the radiographic testing of metallic welded joints had been harmonised in all over the Europe and at the end in 1997, the standard "EN 1435" was established and published. Since then, this standard has become the most widely use...
Determination of fracture and fatigue behaviours of 4340 steel
Şen, Gökçe; Gürbüz, Rıza; Ögel, Bilgehan; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2015)
In this study both the characteristic and mechanical properties of received modified AISI 4340 steel -generally used in aeronautical and defense applications- has been examined. Mode I Fracture toughness (KIC) tests have been conducted with two different directional specimens of RL and LR. Fatigue crack growth behaviors of directional specimens are compared and discussed at three different positive stress ratios (R) which are 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 under constant amplitude loading. Walker equation is used to perf...
Assessment of changes in the dielectric properties of multidrug resistant cancer cells by electrorotation technique /
Bahrieh, Garsha; Külah, Haluk; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014)
With recent advances in microfabrication technologies different methodologies are employed to study the dielectric properties of the biological systems. These include electrorotation (ER), dielectrophoresis, microelectrical impedance spectroscopy, and impedance flow cytometry. Among them, ER is utilized as a high accuracy approach in determining the membrane and interior dielectric properties of single cells. In addition, in cancer therapy, cancer cells are developing resistance toward the chemotherapeutic ...
FOUNDATIONS OF SEMIALGEBRAIC GENE-ENVIRONMENT NETWORKS
Kropat, Erik; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Tirkolaee, Erfan Babaee (2020-10-01)
Gene-environment network studies rely on data originating from different disciplines such as chemistry, biology, psychology or social sciences. Sophisticated regulatory models are required for a deeper investigation of the unknown and hidden functional relationships between genetic and environmental factors. At the same time, various kinds of uncertainty can arise and interfere with the system's evolution. The aim of this study is to go beyond traditional stochastic approaches and to propose a novel framewo...
