Heat Treat Verification
In it the defects/cracks are studied using a penetrant/dye. low surface tension fluid penetrates into clean and dry surface-breaking discontinuities. Penetrant may be applied to the test component by dipping, spraying, or brushing. After adequate penetration time has been allowed, the excess penetrant is removed and a developer is applied. The developer helps to draw penetrant out of the flaw so that an invisible indication becomes visible to the inspector. Inspection is performed under ultraviolet or white light
X-rays are just like any other kind of electromagnetic radiation. They can be produced in parcels of energy called photons, just like light.
These are used to produce image
Ultrasonic testing uses high-frequency sound to examine materials for discontinuities and thickness measurements. It can be used on castings, forgings, welds, and composites. Ultrasonic waves are introduced into a material and the reflection and transmission of the waves is detected to provide information about features inside the material. Common techniques are pulse-echo testing using one transducer to send and receive signals, and through transmission using two transducers. Reflections are displayed to show discontinuities and material thickness. Ultrasonic testing is widely used in industries like petrochemicals and utilities for applications like weld inspection and corrosion monitoring.

Low power architecture of logic gates using adiabatic techniquesnooriasukmaningtyas
The growing significance of portable systems to limit power consumption in ultra-large-scale-integration chips of very high density, has recently led to rapid and inventive progresses in low-power design. The most effective technique is adiabatic logic circuit design in energy-efficient hardware. This paper presents two adiabatic approaches for the design of low power circuits, modified positive feedback adiabatic logic (modified PFAL) and the other is direct current diode based positive feedback adiabatic logic (DC-DB PFAL). Logic gates are the preliminary components in any digital circuit design. By improving the performance of basic gates, one can improvise the whole system performance. In this paper proposed circuit design of the low power architecture of OR/NOR, AND/NAND, and XOR/XNOR gates are presented using the said approaches and their results are analyzed for powerdissipation, delay, power-delay-product and rise time and compared with the other adiabatic techniques along with the conventional complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) designs reported in the literature. It has been found that the designs with DC-DB PFAL technique outperform with the percentage improvement of 65% for NOR gate and 7% for NAND gate and 34% for XNOR gate over the modified PFAL techniques at 10 MHz respectively.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

9. ME101: Materials Science and
Technology
• A liquid with high surface wetting characteristics
is applied to the surface of the part and allowed
time to seep into surface breaking defects.
• The excess liquid is removed from the surface
of the part.
• A developer (powder) is applied to pull the
trapped penetrant out the defect and spread it
on the surface where it can be seen.
• Visual inspection is the final step in the
process. The penetrant used is often loaded
with a fluorescent dye and the inspection is
done under UV light to increase test
sensitivity.

Editor's Notes
The heavy loads that trains place on the railroad tracks can result in the formation of cracks in the rail. If these cracks are not detected, they can lead to a derailment. Special rail cars equipped with NDT equipment are used to detect rail defects before they are big enough to cause serious problems.
The US has 578,000 highway bridges, which are the lifelines of US commerce. Corrosion, cracking and other damage can all affect the bridges load carrying capacity. Therefore, all of the elements that directly affect performance of the bridge including the footing, substructure, deck, and superstructure must be periodically inspected or monitored. Visual inspection is the primary NDE method used to evaluate the condition of the majority of the nation's highway bridges. Inspectors periodically (about every two years) pay each bridge a visit to assess its condition. However, it is not uncommon for a fisherman, canoeist and other passerby to alert officials to major damage that may have occurred between inspections.
The potential penalties for ineffective inspection of bridges can be very severe. Instances of major bridge collapse are very rare, but the results are truly catastrophic. The collapse of the famous Silver Bridge at Point Pleasant, Ohio in 1967 resulted in loss of 47 lives. The cost of this disaster was 175 million dollars but some experts estimate the same occurrence today would cost between 2.1 and 5.6 billion dollars. Furthermore, these cost figures do not take into account factors such as loss of business resulting from loss of access or detours, the cost resulting from blockage of a major river shipping channel, and potential environmental damage due to hazardous materials being transported over the bridge at the time of collapse.
Fatigue cracking and corrosion will become increasingly important considerations as we go beyond the 75 year life expectancy and current visual inspection techniques will not suffice. The life extension approach will require increased use of NDE in a coordinated effort to obtain reliability assurance for these structures. NDE techniques such as magnetic particle inspection and ultrasonic inspection are being used with greater frequency. One of the newer NDE technologies being used is acoustic emission (AE) monitoring. Some bridges are being fitted with AE instruments that listen to the sounds that a bridge makes. These sophisticated systems can detect the sound energy produced when a crack grows and alert the inspector to the cracks presence. Sensors can be permanently fixed to the bridge and the data transmitted back to the lab so that continuous bridge condition monitoring is possible. The image provided here shows field engineers installing an AE monitoring system on the lift cables of the Ben Franklin Bridge in Philadelphia, PA
