• Combines engineering and biological material characterization techniques into a single book
• Covers the basics, traditional as well as the state-of-the-art advanced applications
• Includes the traditional ultrasonic NDE applications with the derivation of basic equations

Meeting the needs of a broad range of researchers, Ultrasonic Nondestructive Evaluation combines engineering and biological material characterization techniques into a single book for the first time. Starting with the basics and traditional applications, this book then moves into the state-of-the-art advanced applications of ultrasonic NDE techniques. Written in simple language by experts in each field, the book begins with the fundamental equations of the ultrasonic method. Then each author derives specialized equations for his chapter, discusses the technique's traditional and advanced applications in such a manner that the reader can easily follow the chapter.
