Title: Advancing technologies and applications in nondestructive evaluation

Journal Article · · Science and Technology Review
OSTI ID:567430

The methods used to inspect and evaluate materials, decides, and products are now based on imaging systems that collect digital data and process and interpret them through specially developed computer algorithms. Lawrence Livermore`s Nondestructive and Materials Evaluation Section has been developing a wide range of imaging systems, implementing them through a range of technologies, including digital radiography, computed tomography, machine vision, ultrasonics, and infrared computer thermography. Applications of these various technologies are described in the article. They demonstrate the range and increasing flexibility of the concept of nondestructive evaluation.
