Abstract :
Two applications of laser-ultrasonics in the steel industry are described: thickness gauging at elevated temperature of seamless pipes and grain size evaluation by measurement of ultrasonic attenuation. A laser-ultrasonics generating/detecting system for use in the steel industry is also discussed
