  • Electronic device and method for simulating an ultrasonic response of a metal part, associated testing electronic system and method and computer program
    Patent number: 11467134
    Abstract: A method for simulating an ultrasonic response of a metal part is carried out by an electronic simulating device. The method includes computing a first distribution of ultrasonic waves for the part without defect, in response to an ultrasonic excitation toward said part computing a second distribution of ultrasonic waves for a predefined zone (S3k) of the part, including a defect (20), in response to an ultrasonic excitation toward said zone (S3k), with the computation of elementary distributions, each corresponding to an ultrasonic response received by a receiver located at a border (F) of said zone; and determining a resultant distribution of ultrasonic waves for the part with defect, from the first and second computed distributions, the resultant distribution forming a simulation of an ultrasonic response received from the part including the defect (20), in response to an ultrasonic excitation toward said part.
