Non-destructive testing

Techniques used in Structural Health Assessment (SHA) are assessed. The dynamic cases of SHA are looked at thoroughly and can be further separated into time domain and frequency domain-based approaches. Frequency domain approaches are defined as approaches that compare modal par…

Non-destructive testing (NDT) is the process of non-invasive material examination. Within this field, ultrasonic inspection is one method of examination used to detect flaws in structural and functional industrial components, to assess their structural integrity and fitness for …

Non-Destructive Testing of industrial components carries vital importance, both financially and safety-wise. Among all Non-Destructive techniques, Long Range Ultrasonic Testing utilizing the guided wave phenomena is a young technology proven to be commercially valid. Owing to it…

Cracking adversely affects the long-term performance of reinforced concrete structures since cracking accelerates the ingress of moisture and aggressive ions (e.g., chlorides) into concrete. Detecting cracking and quantifying the rate of moisture movement in concrete, therefore,…
