Papers presented include the application of the electric current perturbation method to the inspection of magnetic materials, the acoustical holographic Siamese image technique for imaging radial cracks in reactor piping, advanced enhancement techniques for digitized images, ultrasonic inspection systems for sonar dome rubber windows, and a novel acoustic coupling device using permeable membranes. Consideration is given to a dry imaging system for radiography, the role of laser technology in materials processing and NDT in the 21st century, a computer controlled array of ultrasonic transducers for the fast inspection of steel pipes, quantitative ultrasonic NDE, and the effect of tensile straining on the magnetic pulses induced during cyclic loading of a ferromagnetic steel. In addition, use of ultrasonics for quantitative nondestructive evaluation, imaging of defects in fiber-reinforced composites, and for determination of principal stress differences in a slightly anisotropic residual stress specimen are discussed.
