Invisible defect such as delamination and inclusion may cause composite structural failure. Therefore, several research on ultrasonic testing for composite material defect detection have been done for the past few years. However, improper parameter setup may lead to significant error to determine the behavior of defects. In this paper, the intensive study on defect detection with ultrasonic single crystal immersion transducer has been conducted. In general, the defects detection thru acquired signal is determine the behavior of defects through the certain ultrasonic parameter setup such as sound velocity, pulse width, gain, sampling rate and transducer distance with specimen surface. Furthermore, an A-scan signal interpretation for FGCL defect detection is demonstrated and illustrated. This research is focusing on for FGCL with maximum thickness up to 10 mm in ambient temperature. The result shows an appropriate ultrasonic parameter will result better signal interpretation analysis. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. date: 2016 publisher: Institute of Physics Publishing official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84973150446&doi=10.1088%2f1757-899X%2f114%2f1%2f012106&partnerID=40&md5=c556c4ddbea86d1baf0722a0b16f8b28 id_number: 10.1088/1757-899X/114/1/012106 full_text_status: none publication: IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering volume: 114 number: 1 refereed: TRUE issn: 17578981 citation: Mahmod, M.F. and Bakar, E.A. and Othman, A.R.
