Description
This collection of essays is taken from a conference on mathematical modelling in non-destructive testing, organized by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications and held in Cambridge, 1986. The conference was a response to demands on industry to ensure the safety of its manufacturing plant and products which, in turn, has increased the level of serious scientific research into techniques for the non-destructive testing (NDT) of components. The NDT community recognizes that mathematical modelling can play a complementary role to traditional, experimental research in developing, validating and improving NDT inspection procedures. The conference dealt with the use of mathematics in NDT research and one of its main aims was to encourage dialogue between theoreticians and practising NDT engineers. Consequently the material assembled in the Proceedings emphasizes the application of the models as well as their theoretical basis. Topics covered include a range of NDT techniques, such as ultrasonics, eddy current testing and ACPD methods, as well as more specialized papers describing areas of topical interest.
