DISCOVER HOW MACHINE LEARNING OF ULTRASOUND MEASUREMENTS PROMOTES EFFECTIVE NDE OF FATIGUE DAMAGE IN METALS

Join REMADE for an exciting project update webinar looking at non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of fatigue damage in end-of-life metals and exploring how NDE is essential to maximizing the benefits of such materials for remanufacturing. NDE not only enables effective materials screening but also provides valuable information for the process optimization and control of downstream remanufacturing processes.

In this webinar, we will present a novel machine learning-based NDE framework that harnesses linear and nonlinear ultrasound techniques to predict the fatigue damage, remaining useful life, and residual stress. Experimental results will be presented to show the effectiveness of our technology.
