NDE Research At Nondestructive Measurement Science At NASA Langley
Abstract
This document contains technical papers representative of the research performed at the NASA Langley Nondestructive Measurement Science Branch Laboratories. The focus of the program is to advance the science base for NDE resulting in improved quantitative information necessary to assess the safe, economical performance of materials and structures. The program is divided into groups consisting of: Composites, Metals, Advanced Sensors, Remote Sensors, and NDE Imaging. The respective group leaders are: Drs. Eric I. Madaras, Min Namkung, William P. Winfree, Robert S. Rogowski, and Patrick H. Johnston. Dr. Joseph S. Heyman is the program manager with Dr. Eric Madaras as the Assistant Branch Head and Mr. Bobby G. Batten, Director for Planning and Coordination. The multidisciplines associated with this activity are: physics, chemistry, mathematics, materials science, electronics engineering, and computer science. The technologies represented by our staff include: ultrasonics, nonlinear acoustics, thermal acoustics and diffusion, magnetics, fiber optics, and x-ray tomography. We have a strong commitment to transfer technology out of the laboratory to practical applications and welcome interactions with other government, university, and industry centers.
