Method of arresting crack growth for application at a narrow working space

The many fracture accidents in engineering applications are related to fatigue crack initiation and growth. Therefore, the inspection of fatigue crack initiation and the arrest of crack growth are very important for the safe operation of a machine and the maintenance of a structure. Non destructive...

Therefore, the inspection of fatigue crack initiation and the arrest of crack growth are very important for the safe operation of a machine and the maintenance of a structure.
