100% Verified Exam Prep and Comprehensive
Rationales Included
,ACOUSTIC EMISSION Transient elastic waves resulting from local internal micro-displacements in a
material
ACOUSTIC EMISSION ACTIVITY Number of bursts ( or events, if the approriate conditions are fulfilled) detected
during test or part of test
ACOUSTIC EMISSION EVENT Micro-structural displacement that produces elastic waves in a material under
load or stress
ACOUSTIC EMISSION TESTING ( AE ) Passive NDT method that monitors a component or assembly for transient
elastic waves into electrical signals. Acoustic waves may be movement of
micro-structural dislocations during crack propagation, melting, phase
transformation or thermal stresses.
, ACOUSTIC IMPEDANCE Frequency dependent property of a medium through which acoustic waves
propagate in units of kg.s-1.m-2. in its simplest form, acoustic impedance is the
product of longitudinal ultrasonic wave velocity and material density.
RADIOGRAPHIC ACTIVATION the process by which neutrons bombard stable atoms and make them
radioactive.
RADIOGRAPHIC ACTIVITY Degree of radioactivity of a particular isotope. expressed as the number of
atoms disintegrating per unit of time.
AGING Heat treatment method that alter material properties and micro structures
because of the duration of time at ambient or elevated tempature
ALTERNATING CURRENT Electric current whose waveform changes cyclically in magnitude and direction
ALTERNATING CURRENT MAGNETIZATION in mag-particle testing, a technique for inducing an active magnetic state by a
cyclically reversing wave form, a state generally characterized by its form
following ability and by shallow penetration.
AMPERE SI unit of electric current
ANISOTROPY Material characteristic in which different values of a property are noted in
different directions
