Fundamentals of Ultrasonic Nondestructive Evaluation A Modeling Approach /

This extensively revised and updated second edition of a widely read classic presents the use of ultrasound in nondestructive evaluation (NDE) inspections. Retaining the first edition's use of wave propagation /scattering theory and linear system theory, this volume also adds significant new ma...
