facesof arbitrarygeometry.USLDV allowsfor measurement of in-plane

callyby theresolution of thepositioning system(< 1 mm). The Georgia

At present,the paper industrylacks an on-line, noncontactquality
controlsystem.Severalstudiesindicatethat there are strongcorrelations
betweenpaperstrengthandelasticstiffnessproperties. Theseelasticprop-
ertiesor elasticcoefficients
canbe determinedby measuring the velocities
of propagationof variousultrasonicwaves. Lamb waves, for instance,
propagatein paper and appearto be sensitiveto paper strength.Experi-
mentshavebeenconducted with a laser-basedsystemto bothgenerateand
detectultrasonicLamb wavesin copy paper.Resultsobtainedregarding
the relationshipbetweenthe generationlaserspotsize,powerdensity,and
ultrasonicsignalstrengthare presented.Paperdamageis assessed at the
generationspot.Phasevelocitydispersioncurvesare producedfor those
modesthat have sufficientsignal-to-noise ratio. Thesedispersioncurves
are thencomparedto thosepredictedby ortotropicplatetheory.[Work

Recentresearchhasshownthe feasibilityof performinginverseaeroa-
cousticproblemsfor streamlinedbodies.The unsteadypressureon a flat-
plate airfoil, due to a convectedvorticaldisturbancein the meanflow, can
be recoveredfrom the far-fieldradiatedsound.The presentpaperextends
thisanalysisto oscillatingairfoilsin a uniformmeanflow.In thiscase,the
oscillatingairfoil createsan unsteadypressurefield on the airfoil surface.
The inverseproblem,then, is to determinethe surfacepressurefrom the
radiatedsound.For the oscillatingairfoil problem,the normalpressure
gradientdoesnot vanishalongthe airfoil surface,renderingthe inversion
processmore complexthan for the gustproblem,howeverit is still fea-
sible.This paperalsocomparesthe oscillatingairfoil applicationto acous-
tic holography.While the two problemsare similar mathematically, far-
field input data are, in general,not sufficientfor acousticholography
applications while theyare sufficientfor theinverseaeroacousticproblem.

soundsourceswith hot surfaces. Marfin GutitrrezV. (Inst.of Acoust.,
UniversidadAustralde Chile, Casilla 567, Valdivia,Chile)
Sincenear-fieldacoustic
holography
(NAIl) is a powerfultoolto in-
vestigatethe soundradiationof a wide rangeof sourcesimmersedin a
homogeneous medium,a correctivemodelfor the presenceof inhomoge-
neitiesin the near field, where the hologramis performed,is presented.
Strongtemperature gradientsmodify the propagationof the soundwave,
becausetheymodify the densityof the mediumandthenthe soundspeed.
Many modelswere developedto take into accountthis andothereffects;
mostof them were proposedin the atmosphericsoundpropagationarea.
The actualmodel was developedto minimizedthe effect of temperature
gradients
in thenearfield.An earlymodel,previously
presented[M. Guti-
6rrezandJ.Arenas,J.Acoust.Soc.Am. 96, 3263(A) (1994)],basedon the
spatialtransformationof soundfieldstechnique,was modifiedin orderto
obtain a new mathematicalexpressionbasedon a multilayeredGreen's
function.Some theoreticalsourceswere numericallytestedwith the new
model,whichsupposed a disturbanceduringheattransmissionto the free
air by an "omnidirectional"heat source.The comparativeresultsbetween
NAIl theoryand the proposedmodelwill be shown.
