Zusatztext "Three titles from CRC Press look of interest! though I have not seen the books themselves? Introduction to the Principles of Materials Evaluation by D.C. Jiles! which covers mechanical properties! acoustic and ultrasonic properties! thermal properties! electrical and magnetic properties! effects of radiation! mechanical! ultrasonic! electrical! magnetic! radiographic and thermal testing methods! destructive vs. non-destructive testing! defect detection and reliability and lifetime extension. An appendix provides solutions to the exercises. All this is squeezed into 272 pages."-P.W. Hawkes in Ultramicroscopy 108 (2008)"The book is well written . . . illustrations are fairly good . . . Useful to graduate students! faculty! and professionals involved with materials testing! and a good acquisition for an academic or industrial library. Summing Up: Recommended." - T. Z. Kattamis! University of Connecticut! in Choice: Current Reviews for Academic Libraries! April 2008! Vol. 45! No. 8 Informationen zum Autor David C. Jiles Klappentext Developing an understanding of the way different types of energy interact with materials, this text presents a thorough examination of all types of destructive and nondestructive testing methods, focusing on each one's strengths and utility. The author first discusses relevant physical properties and how to determine them using mechanical, acoustic, thermal, optical, electrical, magnetic, and radiative energy. For the remainder of the book, he systematically examines the testing methods derived from these types of energy, how the methods work, how to identify defects and potential problems, and how to make decisions based on the results. Numerous illustrations, examples, and exercises help demonstrate the concepts and reinforce understanding.
