The VICAT softening temperature is defined as the temperature at which a circular probe of 1.0 mm2 cross section, under a load of 1000 g, penetrates 1.0 mm into a sample 12.7 mm thick (33). Using the same samples as were used for the DTUL tests, the correlation between TM A and VICAT softening temperatures are given in Table 11.5 (32).

The calibration in UTDefect is perfomed by a side-drilled hole or a flat-bottomed hole. The flat-bottomed hole is approximated by an open circular crack with the probe s beam axis going normally through its centre. This approximation should be sufficiently accurate as long as the crack diameter is larger than about a wavelength. 

Becker et al. (11) have performed extensive experiments on surface-breaking cracks, tilting both the cracks or the back-side. The cracks are like a half ellipse, but could presumably be reasonably approximated by a strip-like crack. Figure 3 shows a comparison between the experiments and UTDefect for a 2.54 mm crack with varying tilt. The thickness of the plate with the crack is 15.24 ram. The probe is a circular 45 SV probe with frequency 2.25 MHz and diameter 12.7 mm. The experiments are calibrated with a notch but this is presently not... 

By increasing the probe diameter, we bring down tlie impedance point along the impedance curve with the same way as the electrical frequency or conductivity. We will describe only one type of probes, namely, the probe with ferritic circular section that we could qualify as punctual with an optimal sensibility. In order to satisfy these conditions, tests will be made to confirm these results by ... 

It is a probe whose the coil support is a small circular sticks with a straiglit section. The aim of our study is to assimilate the resulting magnetic field to a material point, hi order to minimize the lateral field, we have chosen the construction of conical coil where the lateral field at a contact point in respect to a straight configuration is decreased with an exponential factor. The results obtained from the curves are as follow ... 

This paper deals with the control of weld depth penetration for cylinders in gold-nickel alloy and tantalum. After introducing the experimental set-up and the samples description, the study and the optimization of the testing are presented for single-sided measurements either in a pulse-echo configuration or when the pump and the probe laser beams are shifted (influence of a thermal phenomenon), and for different kind of laser impact (a line or a circular spot). First, the ultrasonic system is used to detect and to size a flat bottom hole in an aluminium plate. Indeed, when the width of the hole is reduced, its shape is nearly similar to the one of a slot. Then, the optimization is accomplished for...

Ever since Pasteur s work with enantiomers of sodium ammonium tartrate, the interaction of polarized light has provided a powerful, physical probe of molecular chirality [18]. What we may consider to be conventional circular dichroism (CD) arises from the different absorption of left- and right-circularly polarized light by target molecules of a specific handedness [19, 20]. However, absorption measurements made with randomly oriented samples provide a dichroism difference signal that is typically rather small. The chirally induced asymmetry or dichroism can be expressed as a Kuhn g-factor [21] defined as ... 

Direct probe of ligand field and charge transfer excited states Greater sensitivity than ABS in observing weak transitions and greater resolution due to differences in circular polarization complimentary selection rules aiding in assignment of electronic transitions... 

Kinetic treatments are usually based on the assumption that reaction does not occur across the micelle-water interface. In other words a bimolecular reaction occurs between reactants in the Stern layer, or in the bulk aqueous medium. Thus the properties of the Stem layer are of key importance to the kineticist, and various probes have been devised for their study. Unfortunately, many of the probes are themselves kinetic, so it is hard to avoid circular arguments. However, the charge transfer and fluorescence spectra of micellar-bound indicators suggest that the micellar surface is less polar than water (Cordes and Gitler, 1973 Fernandez and Fromherz, 1977 Ramachan-dran et al., 1982).
