Non-Destructive Evaluation Systems for the Naval Aviation Maintenance Environment Technology Assessment.

Abstract

Under NAVAIRSYSCOM direction, NAEC-GSED conducted an investigation and analysis of the field of non-destructive evaluation as it relates to the Naval aviation community. This report finalizes that task. Areas of discussion include: general description of what NDE is and why it is practiced, how inspection requirements are established and suggested methods for improvement, assessment of the positive impact expanded utilization of NDE could provide, discussion of present and future field inspection requirements, technology base assessment/projection, and recommended research program options.
