ABSTRACTPrestressed or post-tensioned concrete structures are vulnerable to hazardous corrosion, if the tendon ducts are not fully injected with grout. Also compaction faults reduce the concrete strength. Advanced ultrasonic testing techniques and data analysis have been utilized to evaluate ducts in concrete members nondestructively. A laser Doppler vibrometer is used as an ultrasonic receiver to automatically collect the data. With this method ducts could be investigated which are not accessible by other methods as radiography or impact-echo. Encouraging results on different specimens are presented.

Temperature dependence of Young’s modulus of Ag microwhiskers was determined by a laser Doppler vibrometer. The Ag whiskers with diameters in sub-microns were synthesized by the use of physical vapor deposition (PVD). They have a five-fold twinned structure grown along the [1 1 0] direction. The temperature coefficient of Young’s modulus was measured to be [Formula: see text] ppm/K in the range of 300 K to 650 K. The measured values are very close to the reported values of [Formula: see text] ppm/K for bulk Ag single crystals. This finding can benefit the design of Ag-based micro/nano-electromechanical systems or micro/nano-interconnectors operated at elevated or lowered temperatures.
