| Summary: | The lack of information about the features of processes of the surface wave's transformation into volume waves and its scattering in metal objects with ledge, slots, grooves and the others is one of the obstacles to improve of the acoustical testing reliability and widening of technical application. The aim of this work was to study of mechanism of acoustical mode's transformation and determination the laws of the fields forming of scatted volume edge wave's in solids with ledge of different geometry and to suggest direction of the study application in area of acoustical testing and measurements.The features of transformation of surface waves into edge transverse and longitudinal wave modes scatted and their fields forming in the volume of the object with ledge vs. its angle of the slope front surface side (0–135°) and a dimensionless transition radius (0–10,2) varied were studied. Theoretical analysis and experimental data shown that in general case the field of the edge transverse waves in the volume of ledge can be imagined as a superposition of the field of edge waves (scatted on ledge) and accompany waves too, radiated simultaneously with the surface waves to radiate. If dimensionless size of the ledge's transition radius lesser than 1 the resulting field of the edge transverse waves is the summary field of two sources. One of them (with small aperture) is localized in the vicinity of the place of intersection of contact surface with ledge's front side surface. As it was found, the second source of the edge transverse waves – the edge head longitudinal waves to appear in the results of transformation of surface waves on the ledge′s radius transition. The structure of the edge acoustic fields including their extremes vs. ledge's angle and its radius transition, position of the surface wave's probe were experimentally studied and theoretically analyzed.Some directions of the results of researches using are the next: а) ultrasonic testing of hard-to-make technological objects in which defects have low sound reflection; b) ultrasonic structure diagnostics of solid (specimens) set far from the ultrasonic by using edge volume transverse and longitudinal modes; c) creation of new ultrasonic arrangements to sound and to receive transverse waves of different polarization. |
