Abstract

At the 1980 Review of Progress in Quantitative NDE the authors presented a paper outlining the NDE techniques then under development for fatigue crack detection and monitoring in welded structures (1). The present paper describes the progress made since then in applying the techniques to welded pressure vessels.
