Review of Progress in Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation
Center for Nondestructive Evaluation

Begun in 1973, the Review of Progress in Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation (QNDE) is the premier international NDE meeting designed to provide an interface between research and early engineering through the presentation of current ideas and results focused on facilitating a rapid transfer to engineering development.

This site provides free, public access to papers presented at the annual QNDE conference between 1983 and 1999, and abstracts for papers presented at the conference since 2001.

Abstract

Damage is conventionally defined as the progressive deterioration of materials due to nucleation and growth of microcracks. The purpose of the damage concept [1] is to take into account the microscopic deterioration of the material in its macroscopic constitutive law. In composite materials, the microcracks have a preferential orientation and the damage variable depends on the direction of measurement [2]. Non linear analysis of such materials must consider this anisotropy by introducing a tensorial damage variable in the constitutive equations [3]. The main difficulties when dealing with anisotropic description of damage are to be able to identify the introduced parameters [4].
