A baseline-free defect localization method in thin plates is proposed and tested. In this proof-of-concept work, a steel ball pressed against an aluminum plate is used to mimic a surface contact defect. The technique takes benefit of a repetitive nonlinear pump-probe interaction with a backpropagation imaging algorithm. High-frequency probe waves are periodically emitted by a piezoelectric patch transducer glued to the plate. Propagated flexural waves are recorded using a distributed array of transducers. At the same time, a continuous low-frequency pump vibration provided by a shaker fixed to the plate modulates the contact state. By combining multiple probe signals, the contact can be successfully localized. Contrast of the localization images is finally improved by a factor of 3 to 5 by implementing a modified version based on synchronous detection of the imaging algorithm.

Problem: Breast cancer is a leading cause of death among women, and early detection is crucial for improving survival rates. The manual breast cancer diagnosis utilizes more time and is subjective. Also, the previous CAD models mostly depend on manmade visual details that are complex to generalize across ultrasound images utilizing distinct techniques.

Microscopy and crystallography are two essential experimental methodologies for advancing modern science. They complement one another, with microscopy typically relying on lenses to image the local structures of samples, and crystallography using diffraction to determine the global atomic structure of crystals. Over the past two decades, computational microscopy, encompassing coherent diffractive imaging (CDI) and ptychography, has advanced rapidly, unifying microscopy and crystallography to overcome their limitations.
