Fabrication of artificial defects in aircraft components for nondestructive testing using 3D printing by Chan, Marcus Jia Jun

“…An Ultrasonic C-scan was also being performed to understand correctly the topography provided in the results. It was found that despite being able to correctly measure the component’s depth, the topography was found to be distorted due to a combination of beam spread and machine measurement errors. …”
