ULTRASONIC ATTENUATION AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF METALS

Abstract

Progress is reported in the investigation of ultrasonic attenuation or rate of energy absorption in a solid material. As the mechanism of attenuation is becoming better understood, a very valuable nondestructive testing tool is being made available for the determination of physical properties of metals.
