Deliverables:<br />
Fundamental properties of nickel billet.<br />
Report of ultrasonic properties (sound velocity, attenuation, and backscattered noise) and types of<br />
defects of concern in IN718, Waspaloy, and IN901.<br />
Report of characterization of defects and ultrasonic properties (sound velocity and acoustic<br />
impedance) as a function of composition <strong>for</strong> defects in IN718.<br />
