Theory and Practice of Non Destructive Testing
Indian Institute of Technology Madras and NPTEL via Swayam
Overview
Nondestructive Testing (NDT) plays an extremely important role in quality control, flaw detection and structural health monitoring covering a wide range of industries. There are varieties of NDT techniques in use. This course will first cover the fundamental science behind the commonly used NDT methods to build the basic understanding on the underlying principles. It will then go on to cover the process details of each of these NDT methods.

I am in the field of material testing and more interested in Non Destructive testing , running a training institute https://aqcinspection.com/ , looking forward to learn more in the field, some one guide me through this -
AnonymousI am a mechanical engineer by profession and I wish to have the knowledged of inspection materials and how they behave when they loss their property.
Never Stop Learning!
