Advanced Non-Destructive Testing in Steels

Non-Destructive Testing

This book consists of a collection of 27 articles dealing with the subject of probabilistic engineering mechanics with special emphasis on the ensuing computational issues. The book has two parts. The first part is meant as a tutorial on the basic aspects of probabilistic mechanics, whereas the second part is an overview of some of the applications that rely on probabilistic concepts for their ...

Non-destructive Testing

This section contains a review of physical fundamentals and results of practical implementation of methods of nondestructive testing (NDT) and evaluation. It also presents relevant information on magnetic, electrical, eddy current, HF electromagnetic, infrared, optical, acoustic, radiographic, penetrant and other (such as vibration, leakage testing and integrated) methods of NDT and evaluation ...

Non-destructive Testing: Neutron Radiography

Time Reversal Techniques in Non Destructive Testing

The objective of this paper is to show that time-reversal invariance can be exploited in acoustics to create a variety of new methods in non-destructive testing. Two different approaches will be discussed. The first one is the iterative time reversal process. It is an adaptive technique that can be used to detect flaws in complex samples with arrays of transducers. A second technique will also ...

Active Infrared Thermography in Non-destructive Testing

The contribution deals with state of the art non-destructive testing method – active infrared thermography. The method can be used for revealing of defects and inhomogenities inside the bodies, e.g. bubbles and cracks in materials, which can have crucial importance from the point of view of their physical-mechanical properties. Goal of the research is theoretical evaluation of the performance o...
