Nondestructive Materials Characterization With Applications to Aerospace Materials

From the reviews:

"This book describes techniques for the material characterisation to detect and quantify degradation processes such as corrosion and fatigue. Emphasis is made on aircraft materials. … It demonstrates the potential of the techniques for a wide variety of applications concerning aircraft materials, especially aluminum and titanium alloys and polymer coatings. … It is suitable as a textbook in special training courses in advanced NDE and aircraft materials characterisation." (Yvon Renotte, Physicalia Vol. 57 (3), 2005)

"Meyendorf and his fellow editors have collected together a series of descriptions of modern techniques, which could give early detection of crack or corrosion defects. … the book is as a whole an interesting read, and should find itself a useful reference work for anyone working in this area, especially if they have an eye on future developments." (Dr. D.G. Bucknall, Contemporary Physics, Vol. 46 (2), 2005)
