  • Method and device for mapping components for detecting elongation direction
    Patent number: 11480550
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for the non-destructive mapping of a component, in order to determine an elongation direction of the elongate microstructure of the component at at least one point of interest, characterised in that it comprises at least two successive intensity measurement steps comprising the following steps: a sub-step of rotating a linear transducer into a plurality of angular positions, said linear transducer comprising a plurality of transducer elements, a sub-step of emitting a plurality of elementary ultrasonic beams at each angular position, a sub-step of measuring a plurality of backscattered signals resulting from the backscattering of the elementary ultrasonic beams by said elongate microstructure, the intensity measurement steps making it possible to obtain two series of intensities measured according to two axes of rotation, and in that the method comprises a step of combining the measured series of intensities so as to determine the elongation direction of the microstructure at s
