MICROWAVE NONDESTRUCTIVE TESTING IN ONE (NOT-SO-EASY) LESSON

THIS ARTICLE SUMMARIZES THE CURRENT STATUS OF MICROWAVE NONDESTRUCTIVE TESTING FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF APPLICATIONS AND TECHNIQUES. TOPICS DISCUSSED ARE (1) UNDERLYING PRINCIPLES OF MICROWAVE NDT, (2) FLAW DETECTION BY REFLECTION AND SCATTERING, (3) THE SIMPLE REFLECTOMETER COMPARED TO THE PHASE-AMPLITUDE REFLECTOMETER, (4) MICROWAVE INTERFEROMETRY, (5) MEASUREMENTS OF DISTANCE, DISPLACEMENT, DIMENSIONS, CONTOUR, VIBRATION AND THICKNESS OF NON-METALS AND METALS, (6) MONITORING MOISTURE CONTENT, DEGREE OF CURE, CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND ORIENTATION, AND (7) DIELECTROMETERS FOR MEASURING MICROWAVE DIELECTRIC CONSTANT AND DISSIPATION FACTOR. /AUTHOR/
