Materials engineers create new materials and improve existing materials. Everything is limited by the materials that are used to produce it. Materials engineers understand the relationship between the properties of a material and its internal structure — from the macro level down to the atomic level. The better the materials, the better the end result — it’s as simple as that.

Abstract

The nondestructive determination of material properties has taken on added importance in recent years. For example the evaluation of material properties can produce significant economic advantages through removal of defective material from the production line before value-added costs are incurred. The measurement of properties to control manufacturing processes is another case in point. For these and ·other reasons, it is desirable that nondestructive methods be developed for the measurement of various properties of materials of technological importance.
