title = "Modelling of rotating ultrasonic sensors for pipe inspection",
abstract = "In this paper a basic simulation tool for the generation of simulated images from rotational ultrasonic scanners is presented. The proposed approach has been verified against two experimental tests: lateral beamwidth measurement using a copper wire and scanning of an aluminium plate. The simulation algorithms created have been capable of generating simulated images from given objects constructed by means of a group of scatterers. The developing and validation of the simulation routines presented in this work are the first step towards the development of a simulation system capable of modelling the behaviour of ultrasonic fields inside tubular structures. The final goal is to have a tool capable of generating simulated ultrasonic images from the internal wall of pipes filled with water.",
