A new hybrid model to calculate echoes and ultrasonic fields scattered by flaws is presented. In this model, transmitted fields by a transducer and fields scattered by flaws are calculated using the Rayleigh integral and the FDTD method, respectively. Received echo signals by the transducer are obtained by the inner product of the transmitted fields and the scattered ones at each grid for the FDTD method, and integrating those in a calculation area. Since the calculation area for the FDTD method can be limited around flaws, the calculation time is short and computer memory usage can be reduced. Experiments are done for two types of test object to confirm the validity of the hybrid model. As a result, experimental results are in good agreement with calculated ones.
