Nondestructive Testing LaboratoryNondestructive testing (NDT) is one of the most powerful and cost effective techniques for quality andsafety control of structures, parts, and products. NDT of materials and components is crucial to aerospace,naval, railroad, and other industries. The objective of the three-credit course that was developed is tointroduce AET students to the engineering principles of ultrasound measurements by combining hands-onlaboratory experience with lectures. Specifically, the students

: Polymer composites have become an essential material and formidable choice forapplication and selection by designers in advanced structures for aerospace and marineapplications, and the hybrid nanocomposite material systems further enhance the desirableproperties along with the added benefits of the nano level material constituents. As such,effective processing techniques are required to integrate the nanomaterial particulates into thematerial systems at a larger component and structural level. Vacuum assisted resin transfermolding (VARTM) is a low cost manufacturing process regularly used for the processing ofpolymer composite laminate structures.

FYEP students are typically assigned to a five-person design teamat the beginning of the class for the duration of the semester. Teams work on a brief introductoryproject and spend the bulk of the semester on a main design project.While we employed an informal social style self-evaluation in workshops in the First-YearProjects course for 12 years, we did not compile results across course sections and years.
