ASM CB chapter Technical Presentation series: A walk-through Nondestructive Testing to Nondestructive Evaluation

#Nuclear #Sensors #nondestructive-testing

Abstract:  The talk will look at the impact, importance, and breadth of the field of nondestructive testing (NDT) and its evolution into more quantitative nondestructive evaluation (NDE).  It will specifically look at the impact of digital technologies on NDE, and include some of the examples of important uses of these technologies, together with current trends.
