Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
Representing the proceedings of the first international conference on the topic (November 2005) held in Korea, two volumes contain several hundred papers ranging from traditional to newly developing NDE methods. Arrangement is in 27 chapters on NDT topics related to modeling and simulation, new methods & devices, optical methods, micro-sensors and MEMS, smart structures & systems, health monitoring of structures, the nuclear industry, aging and degradation, biosystems and agriculture, railways, the electronic industry, power plants, image processing, reliability, vibration, neutron radiography, welding, and personnel qualification. A sampling of papers: optically encoded smart dust from DBR porous silicon, biologically inspired smart sensor for acoustic emission detection, crack detection by static measurement in steel beam, drill pipe thread inspection, and design of femoral IM nail by analysis of lateral curve angle.
