Witek, R R

The acoustic emission investigation was successful in that waveform energy, identified as originating under stress at the crack zone, was detected. Equipment, methods, and techniques were developed to detect, record, and analyze the waveform energy. Raw and filtered waveform data were presented on an oscilloscope screen and photographed.
