The Half-Skip Total Focusing Method (HSTFM) is an ultrasonic array post-processing (imaging) technique. The method allows surface-breaking cracks (SBCs) to be imaged and also sized using 6 dB drop rule. The HSTFM has previously been used to size SBCs initiating from flat and horizontal walls. Howeve...
