Abstract

um sistema para inspeção de trilhos ferroviários (10) que usa a tecnologia ultrassônica "phased array" inclui tanto modos de inspeção de alta velocidade como alta resolução que eliminam a necessidade de que um operador desça do veículo (12) para executar inspeção detalhada. no modo de inspeção em alta velocidade, as sondas "phased array" (30-36) operam em ângulos fixos em relação ao trilho (10) para identificar os defeitos potenciais nos trilhos à medida que o veículo (12) se desloca ao longo do trilho (10). o veículo (12) pode, então, retornar para a localização de um defeito potencial nos trilhos e trocar para o modo de inspeção em alta resolução, no qual as sondas "phased array" (30-36) realizam a varredura ao longo de uma faixa de ângulos de feixe na localização de um potencial defeito nos trilhos.
