ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic testing method includes the steps of transmitting an ultrasonic wave from a probe to a test article, detecting an internal flaw in the test article by a reflected flaw echo from the internal flaw, and determining the shape of the detected flaw by comparing and analyzing frequency components of the transmitted ultrasonic wave and the reflected flaw echo.
