Abstract
Non-destructive evaluation of adhesively bonded joints has been under study for a number of years. A resumé of the application of radiographic and ultrasonic techniques with an indication of the limitations of the methods is given. New ultrasonic techniques and a theoretical analysis of the method in the time domain are described.
