ME 533 - Non-Destructive Testing and Evaluation

Credits: 3

Various non-destructive testing techniques will be introduced with emphasis on ultrasound techniques. For ultrasound, physical principles of acoustic waves in solid media will be introduced, and acoustic sensor design and properties will be discussed. For other techniques, including eddy current techniques, X-ray techniques, acoustic emission, etc., basic physics of the method and modern applications will be introduced. Experiments and demonstrations will be conducted to enhance students’ understanding of the concepts and applications. Corequisites: ME 533L.
