Handbook of Reference Data for Nondestructive Testing (ASTM Data Series Publication)

by Leonard Mordfin (Editor)



This unique book provides the NDT practitioner with the reference data needed to carry out on-site work properly. The data are provided in tables, charts, graphs, and equations that are compiled from many books and standards. This is the only book that brings it all together for the first time in one convenient handbook for the experienced and knowledgeable professional, without extraneous text and tutorial material. This resource will help the NDT professional to plan and to carry out on-site tests that are likely to produce reliable results. Since a substantial amount of NDT work is carried out in the field (e.g. power plants, ships, bridges, pipelines, etc.), it will be especially beneficial to have these reference data in one easy-to-carry volume that can be kept in your toolbox.

Aeronautical Applications of Non-destructive Testing

Abbas Fahr (Author)


Comprehensive guide to the basic principles and applications of non-destructive testing methods for aircraft system and components: airframe, propulsion, landing gear and more Provides detailed analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of major NDT methods Important for design, inspection, maintenance, repair, corrosion protection and safety
This critical book is among the first to provide a detailed assessment of non-destructive testing methods for the many materials and thousands of parts in aircraft. It describes a wide variety of NDT techniques and explains their application in the evaluation and inspection of aerospace materials and components ranging from the entire airframe to systems and subsystems. At the same time the book offers guidance on the information derived from each NDT method and its relation to aircraft design, repair, maintenance and overall safety. The book covers basic principles, as well as practical details of instrumentation, procedures and operational results with a full discussion of each method's capabilities and limitations as these pertain to aircraft inspection and different types of materials, e.g., composites and metal alloys.

Technologies covered include: optical and enhanced optical methods; liquid penetrant, replication and magnetic particle inspection; electromagnetic and eddy current approaches; acoustics and ultrasonic techniques; infrared thermal imaging; and radiographic methods. A final section is devoted to NDT reliability and ways the probability of detection can be measured to establish inspection intervals.
