Flaw detection is one of the most fundamental machine vision tasks.

Characterization of the properties of anisotropic and inhomogeneous composite materials for use in demanding structural applications requires a wide range of mechanical tests.

The central concept behind model-based definition (MBD) is that the digital model contains all of the detailed information necessary for all aspects of the product life cycle.

Leak detection has become a necessary quality task for some time now. The methods of detecting leaks have changed in recent history.

Ultrasonic nondestructive testing (NDT) is a well-established technique that utilizes high frequency sound waves to locate cracks and other hidden flaws in metals, composites, and plastics.

The previous two columns dealt with a study of thread plug gage calibration, the results of which will be discussed and/or argued over for some time.

The purpose of tensile or mechanical testing is to measure the effect of force on a particular material or component, or on the adhesive or fastener that bonds two materials together.
