Abstract
An inspection procedure for a metal-to-metal step-lap joint problem is presented. Rather than study the mechanics of bonding and the relationship of performance to many manufacturing and service variables, it is proposed to examine the potential of selected ultrasonic signal features and their ability to predict performance of an adhesively bonded structure. Emphasis is placed on studying the nondisbond problem. A completely automated data acquisition and analysis procedure is utilized in this study.
