Aims & Scope

Nondestructive Testing and Evaluation publishes the results of research and development in the underlying theory, novel techniques and applications of nondestructive testing and evaluation in the form of letters, original papers and review articles. Articles concerning both the investigation of physical processes and the development of mechanical processes and techniques are welcomed. Studies of conventional techniques, including radiography, ultrasound, eddy currents, magnetic properties and magnetic particle inspection, thermal imaging and dye penetrant, will be considered in addition to more advanced approaches using, for example, lasers, squid magnetometers, interferometers, synchrotron and neutron beams and Compton scattering. Work on the development of conventional and novel transducers is particularly welcomed. In addition, articles are invited on general aspects of nondestructive testing and evaluation in education, training, validation and links with engineering.
