Non Destructive Testing of Materials
DEPA can be used to determine the elastic properties of a wide range of materials. Some of these are :
Abrasives
Alloys
Cast Iron
Cement and Concrete
Ceramics
Composites
Graphite
Plastics
Powder Metals
Refractories
Rubber and Rubber Composites
Space Age Materials
Steel
Wood
MATERIAL SHAPES
Determination of resonant frequency and damping is material shape independent.
Elastic moduli can be computed for the following material shapes :
