The aim of this study is to assess a looseness in a bolt being utilized for connecting components of a structural elements with the help of an Nd:YAG pulsed laser scanning system. Ultrasonic wave propagation imaging (UWPI) of a waveform generated using laser light and recorded by AE sensor was first found. Filtering operation was performed to remove an incident wave. The energy in the reflected wave was further assessed to arrive at a result which indicates structural defect has appeared, i.e., bolt loosening.
