Sourav Banerjee, Cara A.C. Leckey

This book is an invaluable addition to technical libraries in Computational Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE), as it is focused on the computational methods for NDE modeling and simulation, providing discussion of a variety of commonly used methods. Given the complexity of the subject, the authors have dedicated their first seven chapters to paving the way toward understanding. They discuss experimental methods for nondestructive testing of materials, basics of continuum mechanics, and wave propagation theory. The book [also] includes numerous clear illustrations as well as many numerical solved examples. Graduate students and researchers already specialized for work in this field would fully benefit from this book."--S. D. El Wakil, emeritus, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, CHOICE, June 2021
