Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) becomes a key discipline for modem
technology. Information about materials defects and properties is
significant to guarantee reliability of a product and avoid fatal
accidents. For instance technologies with high safety requirements
like aviation, automotive, and energy production are driving forces
for NDE. Keeping in mind that aging of the infrastructure is an
issue in all industrial countries and that, for example, an
aircraft can have a lifetime of several decades poses new
challenges for NDE and especially nondestructive materials
characterization. Besides the traditional in field applications,
NDE becomes more and more a tool to study materials degradation
processes and to provide engineers with input data for
sophisticated models describing materials behavior and the life of
components. At present, this marriage of NDE and materials modeling
shows significant success in predicting damage progression
(corrosion, fatigue) and thus an enhancement of availability and
reliability of components and complete aircraft. This book will
give a snapshot of the present research in materials
characterization of aging aircraft. Methods considered are x-ray,
ultrasonic, optical and thermal techniques and in particular
techniques with high spatial resolution to detect and quantify
early stages of degradation or to characterize materials
microstructure. Every chapter briefly describes the basics and the
principles of one NDE method under consideration. Discussing recent
research results by applying these methods completes the chapters.
The readers will get an overview of the present state of the art of
materials characterization techniques."
