Nondestructive Testing of Materials
Abstract
This report describes standard techniques and facilities for evaluating surface and subsurface characteristics of metallic/nonmetallic materials. It identifies current nondestructive test methods and ultrasonic test techniques applicable to cannon tubes, cast armor plate, welded joints, projectile fuzes, vehicle track shoes, and other items in which detection of cracks, voids, corrosion, and thickness variations is important. Keywords: Test methods; Artillery; Inspection equipment; Pretest inspection; Liquid penetrant inspection; Magnetic particle inspection; Metallurgical tests; Physical measurement; Radiographic inspection; Wear effects; Weldments.
