Abstract

The imaging of the simulated surface-subsurface combined defect using photoacoustic microscope has been demonstrated. Simulated surface and subsurface defects are fabricated independently such that the former was drilled on a pure aluminum plate whereas the latter was machined with end mill. Specimen with subsurface defect alone was also carried out. The photoacoustic image obtained clearly showed the location and the size of both subsurface defect and the surface-subsurface combined defect. The photoacoustic method is useful for detection of the combined defect which is difficult to detect with present NDE techniques.
