Ebook: Advanced Nondestructive Evaluation I

The papers which make up this volume reflect the very diverse nature of nondestructive evaluation; covering as they do topics ranging from traditional NDE to newly developing NDE methods such as structural health monitoring; where nondestructive technologies are rapidly progressing by integrating emerging technologies from various fields.

The collection is divided into twenty-seven chapters: Modeling and Simulation, New Methods and Devices, Optical Methods, Micro-Sensors and MEMS, Smart Structures & Systems, Health Monitoring of Structures, NDT for Infrastructures, NDT in the Nuclear Industry, NDT in Power Plant, Aging & Degradation, Fatigue & Fracture, Guided Wave, IR Thermography, Composite Materials & Structures, Bio & Medical NDE, NDE for Biosystems and Agriculture, Signal Processing, Image Processing, Materials Properties, NDE in Materials Processing, Railways, Reliability, Vibration, Neutron Radiography, NDE in the Electronic Industry, Welding and Personnel Qualification.

This thorough coverage will make it a quite indispensible reference work.
