Acoustic Emission

open access: yes, 2018
Acoustic Emission (AE) is an NDE technique that measures the elastic energy released in the form of acoustic waves in materials that undergo irreversible structure changes (e.g., plastic deformation, cracking, rupture). The emitted acoustic waves are captured by sensors attached to the material’s surface.
