Extensive experience using non-contact ultrasonic generation and detection with lasers to explore surface wave interaction with cracks in a Rail project. Successfully generated laser ultrasonic finite element method (FEM) models to explore further this interaction. Several exciting discoveries have been found during this work, such as angle dependence of.

Enhanced electronic facilities to test the Teletest NDE system, which was accomplished by designing a test fixture to measure electrical properties of PZTs. Additionally, a functional test was implemented to test performance of the PZTs. Contributed to writing of proposals for SME's.
