Abstract: A system for detecting vehicle body damage is disclosed. One or more ultrasonic transceivers are installed on a portion of the vehicle body and configured to transmit and receive ultrasonic sound waves. One or more controllers are coupled to the one or more ultrasonic transceivers. The one or more controllers are programmed to cause the ultrasonic transceiver to emit first ultrasonic sound waves and receive first reflected ultrasonic sound waves, store in memory first sound signature data relating to the first reflected ultrasonic sound waves, cause the ultrasonic transceiver to emit second ultrasonic sound waves and receive second ultrasonic sound waves, and determine a presence of damage on the portion of the vehicle body based on second sound signature data relating to the second reflected ultrasonic sound waves deviating from the first sound signature data.

Abstract: Devices, systems, methods, and kits of parts for monitoring operation of an electron beam additive manufacturing systems are disclosed. A monitoring system includes one or more measuring devices positioned on the at least one wall in the interior of a build chamber of the additive manufacturing system. Each one of the one or more measuring devices includes a piezoelectric crystal. The monitoring system further includes an analysis component communicatively coupled to the one or more measuring devices. The analysis component is programmed to receive information pertaining to a frequency of oscillation of the piezoelectric crystal. A collection of material on the one or more measuring devices during formation of an article within the build chamber causes a change to the frequency of oscillation of the piezoelectric crystal that is detectable by the analysis component and usable to determine a potential build anomaly of the article.

Abstract: An inline robotic detector for inspection of pipelines includes two groups of real time sensors at both front and rear to measure pressures, temperatures, and flows. The robotic detector further includes radial displacement sensors, acoustic sensors and a digital radiographic camera or Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducer (EMAT) at the head and front, and a rechargeable power system at the rear. A GPS positioning module and communicator communicate with an intelligent gateway. Real time data is obtained and associated with the geo-position of the robotic detector received from the intelligent gateway.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods provide for measuring elastic modulus usable with a tubular object. A sound signal is propagated within the tubular object via a speaker coupled to a proximal end of an impedance tube. The propagated sound signal is measured within the tubular object via a pair of microphones coupled to the impedance tube. An elastic modulus of the tubular object is determined in response to the measurement of the propagated sound signal.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a structure evaluation system of an embodiment includes one or more sensors, a signal processing apparatus, and an evaluator. The plurality of sensors detect elastic waves generated from a structure. The signal processing apparatus calculates information on a frequency distribution by amplitude scale based on the plurality of elastic waves detected by each of the one or more sensors, and transmits the calculated information on the frequency distribution by amplitude scale in a wireless manner. The evaluator evaluates a state of deterioration of the structure based on the information on the frequency distribution by amplitude scale which is transmitted from the signal processing apparatus.
