Description/Abstract:
1000 SLUGS WERE NONDESTRUCTIVELY TESTED FOR TRANSFORMATION, ORIENTATION, METAL QUALITY, AND SURFACE QUALITY. THE RESULTS WERE ANALYZED TO DETERMINE ANY CORRELATION BETWEEN THE TESTS AND ANY CONSISTENT DIFFERENCES FOUND BY THESE TESTS THAT CAN BE RELATED TO U FABRICATION AND TO ATTEMPT TO CATEGORIZE SLUGS BY THESE TESTS SO THAT SUPERIOR FUEL CAN BE SELECTED OR INFERIOR FUEL REJECTED.
