Like an X-ray is used to see inside the human body, non-destructive testing (NDT) can be a powerful and effective means of understanding a bridge’s structural integrity without damaging the ...
Well-established regulations have been used worldwide to certify the mechanical characteristics of advanced materials like polymer nanocomposites across different industries. To establish a ...
All over the world, pressure vessels are being pressed into service beyond their design lifetimes. Advances in machine learning can lead to the deployment of increasingly reliable non-destructive ...
Xarion’s laser-excited acoustics (LEA) is a couplant-free nondestructive testing (NDT) method that uses laser principles and an optical microphone without a membrane. In a single-sided “pitch-catch” ...
Everything has a quality control process to ensure its safety and integrity. Everyday items and large infrastructure are continually subjected to wear and tear, causing damage and erosion, while the ...
A new IAEA research project will investigate how artificial intelligence can be used to strengthen non-destructive testing techniques used in disaster response. The project aims to enable faster, ...
Typical pathway: attain Level II in core NDT methods (VT, PT, MT, UT) under a recognized scheme (ISO 9712/PCN/CSWIP or ASNT SNT-TC-1A/ACCP), complete required OJT hours with Level III oversight, pass ...
