Ultrasonic propagation in cancellous bone (1988)
Thesis
McKelvie, M. L. (1988). Ultrasonic propagation in cancellous bone. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215496

The thesis covers two main areas of work. The first is detailed experimental work and the second is the evaluation of existing ultrasonic theories in attempt to apply them to the propagation in cancellous bone. The work is related to a new technique... Read More about Ultrasonic propagation in cancellous bone.

Applications of laser generated ultrasound using an interferometric sensor (1987)
Thesis
McKie, A. D. W. (1987). Applications of laser generated ultrasound using an interferometric sensor. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4421438

To compliment non-contacting ultrasonic generation using lasers, it is ideal to have a remote, non-contacting detector. An interferometer, based on the Michelson design, has been constructed for the purpose of this thesis, enabling laser generated ul...

Quantitative non-destructive evaluation using laser generated ultrasonic pulses (1987)
Thesis
Crosbie, R. A. (1987). Quantitative non-destructive evaluation using laser generated ultrasonic pulses. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4212076

The work presented here utilises features of laser generated ultrasound for the detection of defects in solids. Ultrasound is generated noncontactively by this method and likewise many of the detection devices used do not require direct coupling to t...

Characteristics of a laser-generated acoustic source in solids (1986)
Thesis
Aindow, A. M. (1986). Characteristics of a laser-generated acoustic source in solids. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4421475

This thesis describes a combined experimental and theoretical study of acoustic generation in solids by laser irradiation. Two basic types of laser acoustic source are identified, namely, the thermoelastic and the ablation source. Both sources are d...

Application of a new ultrasonic sing around system to the study of magnetoelastic effects in some heavy rare earths (1979)
Thesis
Jiles, D. (1979). Application of a new ultrasonic sing around system to the study of magnetoelastic effects in some heavy rare earths. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223806

The development of a new ultrasonic sing around system has been described. The equipment has been used to investigate the behaviour of the second order eleastic moduli of single crystal specimens of Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium and Erbium under co...
