Non-Destructive Inspection Development

Abstract

This project develops and demonstrates advanced nondestructive inspection and evaluation technologies to monitor performance integrity and to detect failure causing conditions in weapon systems components and materials. Nondestructive inspection and evaluation capabilities greatly influence and/or limit many design, manufacturing, and maintenance practices. This project provides technology to satisfy Department of the Air Force requirements to extend the lifetime of current systems through increased reliability and cost-effectiveness at field and depot maintenance levels. Equally important is assuring manufacturing quality, integrity, and safety requirements are built in. This project includes the initiation and development of programs addressing DAF capability gaps and provides technologies for transformational future force capabilities. Transformational efforts will be identified through a competitive process and be responsive to DAF design priorities. Selected efforts will be designated as transformational, indicating enterprise-level priority.
