    <title>Abstract</title>To obtain the necessary information on fuel debris and water leakages during the decommissioning task of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, an ultrasonic-based method was proposed for future internal investigation of the primary containment vessel (PCV). In this article, we describe the rotatable winch mechanism and visual localization method, which were used to aid the investigation. We used the rotatable winch mechanism to adjust the height and orientation of the ultrasonic sensor and localized the robot with cameras to localize the sensor, to provide assisting information for data combination. We studied the feasibility of the conventional visual odometry method for application to the situation and performed localizing accuracy evaluation experiments with a mobile robotic platform prototype. The results showed that the visual odometry method could generate intuitive bird’s-eye-view maps, and provided an average error rate of 35 mm/1500 mm, which met the required maximum error rate of 100 mm/1500 mm for the grating movement. Experiments were also conducted with adjustable parameter ranges that could provide the required accuracy.

    Bentonite is a good candidate of buffer material for disposal repository of high-level radioactive waste. Understanding groundwater behavior in bentonite buffer material is important in order to evaluate the bentonite buffer performance and guarantee long-term safety. Elastic constants of the bentonite buffer material are important parameters for the long-term safety. Water content in buffer material may have an influence on its elastic properties. For this reason, the monitoring system of the water saturation level in compacted bentonite is required. In this study, the ultrasonic velocity measurement method for evaluation of water content in compacted bentonite was proposed. At first, the effect of a degree of saturation in compacted bentonite on the longitudinal and shear wave velocities was investigated experimentally. In addition, the elastic property, bulk modulus, in unsaturated compacted bentonite were evaluated by ultrasonic velocities. As a result, it can be confirmed that ultrasonic velocities can evaluate a degree of saturation and bulk modulus of compacted bentonite.

    Bentonite, which is a kind of clay, is considered as a candidate for a buffer material in a geological repository of the high-level radioactive waste. Bentonite could provide long-term isolation of the radioactive waste because of its high adsorption capacity, low water permeability and good swelling property. In the context of long-term safety of disposal management, understanding groundwater behavior in bentonite buffer is one of the important issues, related to evaluating its long-term performance. In order to understand water behavior in compacted bentonite, the ultrasonic measurement was focused on. However, Ultrasonic wave propagation in compacted bentonite has not been understood well. Therefore, in this study, high spatial measurement system with Laser Doppler Vibrometer was developed in order to observe the ultrasonic wave propagation in compacted bentonite specimen. Ultrasonic wave propagation in compacted bentonite surface was measured. As a result, ultrasonic wave reflection was observed on the boundary between two different degrees of saturation. Thus, the capability of the developed system for investigation of the wave propagation in compacted bentonite is confirmed.

    The dissolution rate of minerals is affected by not only physical factors but also chemical factors, such as temperature, solid applied stress, pore water pressure and pH. In general, previous studies on mineral dissolution have dissociated these physical and chemical factors. In this paper, we propose a new dissolution rate equation for quartz dissolution that considers the physical and chemical effects of dissolution. Therefore, the reaction rate constant (k), which is the most important factor in the calculation of the reaction rate, was separated into three individual terms: temperature, solid applied stress and pore water pressure. Finally, the theoretical dissolution rate equation is proposed in this study; the equation contains all of the parameters that are related to the dissolution mechanism, such as temperature, solid applied stress at contact zone, pore pressure and pH conditions. To verify the proposed equation, it is compared with the experimental results, which were collected under various physical and chemical conditions; the equation is found to fit the experimental data well.

    In this study, the apparent thermal conductivity of unsaturated sand is simulated numerically modeling the sand as a periodic porous medium having immobile solid, fluid and gas phases. By varying the amount and location of the pore water, the thermal conductivity is obtained as a function of Sr (the degree of saturation) for three different sand particle packing structures. The numerical results show that the three typical relationships between the thermal conductivity and Sr, which are well known, but have been modeled poorly, can be well reconstructed by the present numerical approach.

    Soil consists of three phases that show significantly different thermal conductivity. The overall thermal conductivity depends not only on the phase composition but also the geometry. In this study, we made a 3-dimensional porous material model with a micro structure of the soil, and estimated the macroscopic thermal conductivity of the model by un upscaling heat conduction analysis. On the other hands, we carried out laboratory experiments aiming to estimate soils thermal conductivity by using column specimens of water content soil. Finally we verified the validity of the numerical model by comparing the experimental results with the numerical ones.

    Most commercial ultrasonic phased array systems implement B- and C-scan methods which use flight time and amplitude of flaw echoes. However, these methods are based on the fundamental ray-tracing theory in homogeneous media, and they are not directly applicable to heterogeneous media because of the complicated phenomenon of wave propagation. Time reversal techniques are adaptive methods that can be used in nondestructive evaluation to improve flaw detection in heterogeneous media. In this study, we propose a simulation-aided flaw imaging method based on the time reversal approach. Scattered waves from a flaw are recorded using an array transducer, and the time-reversed waves are re-emitted in the image-based FIT simulation. The re-emitted waves propagate through the heterogeneous media and focus on the flaw. The shape of the flaw can be visually estimated from the focal point of the ultrasonic wave in the simulation.

    A signal prediction simulation tool for ultrasonic testing (UT) has been developed by combining the finite integration technique (FIT) with an image-based modeling approach. A realistic numerical model of a target can be made directly from digital images such as X-ray CT and three dimensional point cloud data. The image-based FIT for UT is accelerated using graphics processing units (GPUs) with Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) Fortran. The methodology is described, and checked by numerical experiments using multiple GPU boards. The calculation speed can be dramatically improved compared to that obtained by running the same simulation on a conventional CPU. As an application of the image-based FIT, we propose a simulation-aided flaw reconstruction method for UT by means of the time reversal approach. Scattered waves from a flaw are recorded using an array transducer, and the time-reversed waves are re-emitted to numerical model in the FIT simulation. The re-emitted waves propagate through the heterogeneous media and focus on the flaw. The shape of the flaw can be visually estimated from the focal point of the ultrasonic wave in the simulation.

    There is a phased array technique which makes use of flaw echoes, measured by every two-element combination as a pulser and a receiver, to synthesize high amplitude beams for any arbitrary angle and/or focal depth. Using this full waveform sampling and processing (FSAP) technique, we show a flaw reconstruction method for the angle beam phased array ultrasonic testing. In the case of the angle beam testing, it is necessary to estimate a beam path from a wedge to a specimen appropriately and to consider the mode conversion at the wedge-specimen interface. The main feature of our method is the use of processed wave data, called "scattering amplitude", which is extracted from each flaw echo. First, the basic principle of the reconstruction method is described and then some flaw reconstructions are demonstrated. The resolution of the flaw images and the accuracy of flaw sizing can be improved by means of the scattering amplitude.

    This study is concerned with a non-linear inverse scattering technique called Time-Domain Topological Gradient (TDTG) for 2D wave equation. The TDTG is a recently developed shape optimization technique for elastodynamic problems with several potential advantages. The method, however, hasn't been used in the context of array ultrasonic imaging. In this study, performance of the TDTG is investigated numerically and experimentally by solving two example problems. The first is a numerical example in which a vertical slit in a plate is reconstructed from simulated data. The second one is a reconstruction from experimental data. Ultrasonic signals from a side-drilled hole in a steel block specimen are measured by an array transducer. The profile of the hole is reconstructed from those ultrasonic signals in the second problem. The results show that the TDTG can effectively use the phase focused beam fields, and very accurate in reconstructing not only a flat object but also a round one.

    A time domain simulation tool for the ultrasonic propagation in concrete is developed using the elastodynamic finite integration technique (EFIT) and the image-based modeling. The EFIT is a grid-based time domain differential technique and easily treats the different boundary conditions in the inhomogeneous material such as concrete. Here, the geometry of concrete is determined by a scanned image of concrete and the processed color bitmap image is fed into the EFIT. Although the ultrasonic wave simulation in such a complex material requires much time to calculate, we here execute the EFIT by a parallel computing technique using a shared memory computer system. In this study, formulations of the EFIT and treatment of the different boundary conditions are briefly described and examples of shear horizontal wave propagations in reinforced concrete are demonstrated. The methodology and performance of parallelization for the EFIT are also discussed.

    A finite difference time domain method (FDTD) is based on a grid-based time domain differential technique, in which wave equations are solved in a leapfrog manner. It is required to discretize a whole target domain into computational grids with an adequate size. Therefore computational burden increases if the computational domain is much larger than the wave length. To solve such a large-scale problem in high speed, we apply a parallel computing technique to the FDTD. OpeuMP is an interface to execute program codes in parallel using a shared memory system of computers. As an example of large-scale analysis, SH wave propagations in concrete material are demonstrated in this study.

    This paper presents calibration-free crack sizing techniques based on ultrasonic imaging. The techniques are intended for 2D (line) surface-breaking cracks with the size of the incident wavelength or greater. The probing wave mode is the anti-plane shear wave (SH-wave). Two methods are employed for the ultrasonic imaging. One is a synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT) and the other is a computed time-reversal focusing technique (TRFT). In this paper, those methods are modified so that crack tips are located directly from measured A-scope waveforms without any calibration experiments. The results are shown as a peak in the ultrasonic image created by the respective methods. Reasonable accuracies of the proposed techniques are demonstrated first for the sizing of slits with known depths. The techniques are applied thereafter to the sizing of fatigue cracks. Since fatigue cracks may not be open without an external load, ultrasonic measurements are taken with and without external loads. The results of the imaging show that the depths of open cracks can be estimated accurately. It is also shown that crack opening (closing) behavior can be deduced by observing appearance (disappearance) of the peak in the images indicating the crack tip. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.

    This paper presents a 3D linearized inverse scattering method for shape reconstruction of obstacles in a two layered medium. The problem here is to estimate the shape of an obstacle embedded in the bottom layer, using scattered waves observed at points in the top layer. Wave sources are assumed to be acoustic monopoles settled in the top layer. For this situation, two inversion formulas based on the Born and the Kirchhoff approximations are proposed with the help of the Green's function for the layered medium. In numerical examples, the two inversion formulae are tested for reconstruction of spherical and spheroidal rigid scatterers from simulated wave data. It is shown that an illuminated side of the scatterers is well reconstructed by the proposed methods.

    This paper concerns a boundary element method (BEM) for 2D SH-wave scattering in an elastic layer sandwiched by two half spaces. The BEM is based on the integral equation having a Green's function for a layer as its integral kernel. Since the Green's function satisfies the interface conditions, numerical integration in the BEM is necessary only on the surface of scattering objects, thus the computational memory can be saved greatly. On the other hand, numerical evaluation of the Green's function is critical and burdensome. In this paper, a hybrid ray-mode representation of the Green's function given by Kamel [2] is employed. Numerical aspects of the representation are discussed in some detail, and the BEM code with the Green's function is developed thereafter. As a numerical example, SH-wave scattering by a cavity in a layer is considered. Some numerical results to investigate the interaction between the cavity and layer interfaces are presented.

    This paper presents a method for 3D elastic wave scattering analysis by an obstacle in a thick plate. The method is a coupling method of the boundary element method (BEM) and the generalized ray theory (GRT). For computational efficiency, the free field displacement in a plate is calculated by the GRT, and the solution is used as an incident field in the successive BEM analysis. The displacements or the tractions on the surface of the scattering object are obtained by the BEM. The boundary values obtained thus are then substituted into the integral expression of the scattered waves, in which the Green's functions are evaluated by the GRT to reduce computational cost further. As a numerical example, the scattering by a spherical cavity embedded in a plate is solved. The numerical results are shown for displacement waveforms as a function of time at points on the cavity and plate surface. Through the numerical example, benefit of the proposed method is discussed.

    This paper discusses a numerical modeling of contact SH-wave transducers in conjunction with a BEM-based simulation technique for an ultrasonic testing. In the modeling, transmitters are modeled as distributed traction on the area of contact and receivers as a weight function to emulate averaging effect due to finite dimensions of receivers. The whole testing system is firstly formulated as an integral equation that involves the traction and the weight function. Using the integral equation, those unknown functions are then estimated from experimental data. In the last part of this paper, to examine validity of our modeling approach a numerical simulation of a pulse echo test is carried out and results are compared with experiments.

    Time reversal techniques with an array transducer are adaptive methods that can be used in nondestructive evaluation to improve flaw detection through heterogeneous media. Here we propose a simulation-aided flaw imaging method combined with the time reversal approach. First scattered waves from a flaw are recorded in the signal matrix of the full-wave sampling and processing (FSAP) technique. Then the time-reversed waves are re-emitted in a numerical simulation. The simulation is based on the finite integration technique (FIT) and image-based modeling. The re-emitted waves propagate through the heterogeneous media and focus on the flaw. The flaw shape can be estimated visually in the simulation through the focal point of the ultrasonic wave.

    This paper presents a boundary integral equation method for 3D ultrasonic scattering problems in a fluid-loaded elastic half space. Since full scale of numerical calculation using finite element or boundary element method is still very expensive, we formulate a boundary integral equation for the scattered field, which is amenable to numerical treatment. In order to solve the problem using the integral equation, however, the wave field without scattering objects, so-called free field need to be given in advance. We calculate the free field by the plane wave spectral method where the asymptotic approximation is introduced for computational efficiency. To show the efficiency of our method, scattering by a spherical cavity near fluid-solid interface is solved and the validity of the results is discussed.

    土木工学における非正規確率現象を発見し、それを抽出・解析するための方法論を開発し、近代確率過程論の枠組みを超越する新しい確率過程を構築するのが、本研究の主目的である。本年度は、観測加速度時刻歴のフーリエ位相スペクトルの確率特性が非ガウス性を示すことを明らかにした上で、その模擬法を開発し、それが長期記憶過程であることを明かにする。
    最初に、フーリエ位相スペクトルの確率特性が非ガウス性を示すことを明確にし、位相スペクトルの模擬法を確立した。応答スペクトル準拠の加速度時刻歴の形状はフーリエ位相スペクトルに大きく依存するので、観測地震動から位相平均勾配の確率特性を抽出し、それを用いて模擬されるフーリエ位相スペクトルを用い、応答スペクトル準拠の加速度時刻歴を模擬する方法論を確立した。また、初期フーリエ振幅スペクトルの与え方にも任意性が有るので、その設定法についても考察を加えた。多数の設計用応答スペクトル準拠の加速度時刻歴を模擬し、それらを用いて、フーリエ位相スペクトルの不確定性が構造物の非線形応答特性に及ぼす影響を評価した。
    次に、因果性を有する地震動加速度時刻歴のフーリエ変換の虚数部は、ヒルベルト変換を用いて実数部から再構築できることに着目し、加速度時刻歴を模擬できる方法論を開発した。まず、フーリエ変換・実数部の角振動数に関する変動特性を抽出し、それを実数部の「平均変動過程」とする。平均変動過程で実数部を除したものを「標準化実数部過程」と名付け、これが定常な確率過程となることを確認した。さらに，標準化実数部のサンプル過程を自己回帰過程として模擬した。その不確定性は自己回帰過程の予測誤差として評価した。模擬されたサンプル標準化実数部過程に変動過程を乗じて、サンプル実数部過程を求めた。さらに、ヒルベルト変換で虚数部過程を計算し、フーリエ逆変換で因果性を有する加速度時刻歴を多数模擬した。

    The purposes of this research are to discover phenomenon that is expressed by the non-Gaussian stochastic feature and to develop a new stochastic process transcends the frame of the modern stochastic theory. The candidate to detect the non-Gaussian feature is the phase spectrum of acceleration time history. There are three topics in this theme. The first is to make clear the non-Gaussian stochastic characteristic of the mean gradient of phase (an approximation of the group delay time). The next is to develop an algorithm to simulate the phase process, which is called as “the Levy flight process”. We applied this phase process to simulate design response spectrum compatible acceleration time histories. Using the simulated acceleration time history we evaluate nonlinear response characteristics of the structural system. The third is to develop a non-Gaussian stochastic differential equation for simulating the time history of acceleration. We discuss a method to solve this equation.

    This study is concerned with the ultrasonic method for the evaluation of water content and bulk density of unsaturated clay. Since acoustic properties of unsaturated clay has not been investigated systematically, we performed ultrasonic transmission test on compacted bentonite clay of various water content and bulk density. As the result, it was found that the ultrasonic wave velocity is correlated highly with the dry density, while the ratio of P- to S-wave velocity increases with the degree of water saturation. The set of ultrasonic velocity data obtained thus can be used to invert ultrasonic data to the water saturation and the dry density. To investigate the feasibility of ultrasonic spectroscopy further, surface waves in heterogeneous clay samples are visualized by a scanning laser ultrasonic detector. The result is encouraging in the sense that the heterogeneity of the sample appears in the measured ultrasonic wave field as the variation in the wave speed.

    In this study, ultrasonic measurements and the signal processing were carried out aiming to understand the elastic wave propagation characteristics in a highly heterogeneous crystalline rock core samples. For the ultrasonic measurements, PZT and laser Doppler vibrometer were used. With the measurement setup, longitudinal (L), shear(S) and Rayleigh surface(R) waves transmitted through a cylindrical granite samples were measured. It was shown as the result, that the granite core behaves as an acoustically orthotropic material which can support a ballistic waves having the frequency components up to 500kHz. Another important finding is that the grain boundaries act as a relatively weak scatterer while strong scattering occurs at more sparsely distributed micro cracks.

To begin with, a simulation code was developed to analyze generation and propagation mechanisms of the leaky waves. A numerical inverse technique to identify surface-breaking crack was then proposed in conjunction with a guided wave mode-separation technique. Finally, a high-precision and resolution leaky wave measurement system was developed for future experimental validation of the proposed technique

Also images of defects in experimental specimens are reconstructed from measured wave data by means of the synthetic aperture focusing technique(SAFT). Furthermore, an innovative inversion method is proposed for shape reconstruction of defects using guided waves in a plate.

    平成17年度は、以下の二項目の研究を行った。
    「アレイ探触子から発生する入射波動場の実験および数値シミュレーションによる解析」
    接触型、P波のアレイ探触子に対して、数値解析と実験により各素子から発生する入射波動場の解析を行った。実験では、板試験体に密着させたアレイ探触子から超音波を入射し、受信はハイドロフォンを用いた水浸法によって行った。計測結果は、高周波近似によって得られた近似理論解と比較を行い、隣接するアレイ素子の間でその程度は素子ごとに異なるものの、機械的な相互作用が発生していることが分かった。また、フェーズドアレイ探触子としてビーム合成を行ったときに、素子間の相互作用が入射波動場形成に与える影響についても調べ、正確なビーム制御には素子間相互作用を予め定量化しておくことが重要であることを示した。
    「開口合成法を用いたアレイ探傷データからの欠陥形状再構成」
    開口合成法は簡便でロバストな方法であるが、各種計測条件が画像化結果に与える影響については明らかでない部分が多い。そこで、リニアアレイ探触子によって板材内部の欠陥を探傷する場合に条件設定を絞り、探触子位置、素子間隔が開口合成結果に与える影響について数値シミュレーションによって調べた。その結果、素子間隔よりもアレイ探触子全体としての開口の大きさが重要であること、探触子位置によって再構成される欠陥境界の部位が変化すること、板裏面からの反射波の利用が画像化において有効であること等が分かった。実験的検討としては、SH波のリニアアレイ探触子を用意し、鋼材中模擬欠陥の形状再構成を行った。複数の位置でアレイ探触子を使って計測を行い、その結果を使って開口合成を行ったところ、シミュレーションで予め調べた知見を裏付ける結果が得られた。

    This research project aims at developing a numerical simulation tool of ultrasonic waves for accurate and efficient ultrasonic nondestructive evaluation of an inhomogeneous and anisotropic elastic solid. In simulation of ultrasonic waves, the numerical method has to be designed taking account of the following advantages; high accuracy and efficient computational cost, being capable of arbitrary shaped defects and outer boundaries, and mathematical modeling of all wave processes from transmission to receipt in ultrasonic testing. Using numerical data in simulation, an inverse analysis method also needs to be developed for visualization of defect shapes.

    従来の線形化逆散乱解析では、画像化すべき欠陥が無限体中に存在するものとして定式化が行われてきた。この方法を入射波が平面境界を介して欠陥に到達するような場合にも拡張するには、定式化に修正が必要である。接触型探触子を用いた板材の探傷はそのような場合の一つであり、必要な修正を行うには1.接触型探触子の数値モデル化2.板材中の波動場の波線理論による解釈3.多重反射波の逆散乱解析への利用方法についての研究を行う必要がある。これらの三点に対し、本研究では次のような研究を行った。
    1.接触型探触子のモデル化
    接触型の斜角探触子までを対象として現実的な探触子のモデル化を可能とする方法について研究を行った。ここでは、探触子をそれと等価な表面力分布に置き換える従来のモデル化手法を採用しているが、具体的な分布の決定には実験的に測定した超音波の変位データから逆解析を行う方法を提案している。
    2.板材中の場の波線理論解による表現と物体波の抽出
    線形化逆散乱解析の定式化のためには、板材中の波動場を近似的には波線理論解により表現できることが前提となる。ここでは、どの程度そのような近似が可能かを明らかにするために必須となる、板材における弾性波の散乱解析プログラムの開発を行った。用いた手法は境界要素法と一般化波線理論の結合解法であり、三次元的な任意形状散乱体による散乱波の効率よい解析が可能である。
    3.屈折を受けて入射される波動の線形化逆散乱解析への利用
    板材における逆散乱解析では、直達波だけでなく反射波も用いることで送・受信角度の制限を緩和することが望ましい。本研究では、モード変換を伴った反射波までを利用できるよう、モード変換の影響を取り入れた新しい定式化を示した。さらに、ここで示した定式化により、数値解析データを用いて行ったいくつかの欠陥形状再構成例から、定式化の妥当性についても示すことができた。

    The objective of this research is the development of quantitative low frequency ultrasonic testing in the range of several 10kHz to 100kHz, in which major topics are 1. fundamental properties of low frequency ultrasonic method, 2. numerical method for low frequency ultrasonic wave method and 3. application to concrete structures.
    1. Fundamental properties of low frequency ultrasonic method :
    Our review of papers related to ultrasonic transducers showed that there are few works on transducers producing low frequency ultrasonic waves. It was also found that commercial transducers for ultrasonic nondestructive testing of concrete are not designed under the optimum condition based on the wave theory. Applicability of laser vibrometer to nondestructive testing for concrete was investigated.
    2. Numerical method for low frequency ultrasonic testing:
    A low frequency ultrasonic wave method is applied to large-scale infrastructures. In numerical simulation of the ultrasonic testing, therefore, large-scale calculation is required. To this end, we developed a 2.5-D boundary element method and a fast multipole boundary element method, both of which are effective for large-scale wave analyzes.
    3. Application to concrete structures :
    Low frequency ultrasonic testing was applied to the evaluation of debonding on material interface and the evaluation of PC grouting. In the evaluation of interface debonding, an L-scan method with use of leaky surface waves was demonstrated as a better method than a conventional C-scan method. In the PC grout evaluation, the wavelet transform was used for the wave analysis obtained by impact-echo method and comparison between theory and experiment was carried out.

    The aim of the present study is to develop a quantitative ultrasonic method for large complex structures. The following research topics have been investigated ; 1. Development of numerical codes for wave analysis of complex structure members, 2. Characteristic evaluation of ultrasonic transducers and incident wave fields, and 3. Application to experimental data. In the first topic, effective wave analysis methods, which combine a ray theory with a boundary element method or a finite difference method, have been developed. The ray theory is an approximation method in the high frequency range, which requires little computational effort if the scatterer has a simple geometric shape. On the other hand, numerical methods like boundary element method and finite difference method can be applied to analyze wave fields it arbitrary complex structures. In this study, the numerical methods of the boundary element method or the finite difference method were used to investigate the complex scattering phenomena by flaws, whereas reflection and transmission on simple outer boundaries were analyzed by the ray theory. In the second topic of the evaluation of ultrasonic transducers and incident waves, the inverse problem was formulated to estimate the vibration modes on the surface of an immersion transducer from observed waveforms. The problem is a typical inverse problem, in which the solution is sought to minimize the difference between theory and measurement. The Tikhonov regularization method was adopted to obtain a stable solution. In the third topic, the numerical methods developed in the first topic were applied to various experimental configurations including step, slit, welding flaw, defects in cylindrical bar and thick plate. Comparison between experiment and numerical results showed a good agreement. The flaw shapes were, furthermore, visualized by means of SAAF and linearized inverse method. It was shown that the resolution of the imaging of flaw shapes has been improved by taking account of multiple ray paths.
