Abstract

We report on two laser-based ultrasonic studies aimed at measuring various components of materials degradation. These studies span the spectrum from fundamental studies involving idealized single component materials to applied studies involving multicomponent multiphase alloys. In the first portion of this paper, the application of laser-based Resonant Ultrasound Spectroscopy (RUS) to characterize in situ material properties will be discussed. Two sets of results will be presented. The first involves RUS measurements on a nickel-based alloy before and after fatigue testing. The second involves in situ RUS measurements performed in a high radiation environment at the Gamma Tube Facility at INEEL. While RUS offers a noncontacting, fieldable approach to the determination of material degradation, the results are empirical, requiring material dependent calibration. In the second portion of this paper, fundamental work involving imaging of the interaction of surface acoustic waves with individual grain boundaries will be discussed. In addition to exhibiting sensitivity to grain orientation mismatch, our results suggest that careful analysis of the reflected acoustic component can be used to characterize the subsurface grain boundary orientation. This work is helping lead to a fundamental understanding of elastic wave interaction with selective microstructural features that are well known indicators of fatigue damage.
