Padua is one of the oldest cities in Italy. In ancient times, Padova achieved a victory over the Spartans before it was conquered by the Romans and received the town charter. In the Middle Ages, Padua was an independent city state, like many of its neighbouring cities, but was ruled by a Podesta of the emperor. 

In 1405 the city finally fell to Venice, in 1797 to Napoleon, and finally to Austria. With one of the oldest universities in the world officially founded on 1222, Padua was always an intellectual and artistic centre, wich brought many art treasures to the city and made it a hotbed of revolutionary ideas.

ABSTRACT

Within the field of aerospace structural design, Non-Destructive Testing and Evaluation (NDT&E) is one of the most critical aspects. In fact, today, with the aim to guarantee the safety for both persons and components in the aerospace field, a wide range of NDT procedures ensure that not a single manufactured component reaches service without first passing a series of stringent tests. New researches in this field have strategic and essential role in order to reduce the NDT costs and improve the test performance. This Special Session aims to represent a forum for researchers and practitioners from industry, academia, and government interested in methods, systems, and devices for NDT of equipment for aerospace security.

TOPICS

More specifically, suitable topics for this Special Session include but are not limited to:

  1. Methods and systems for designing, optimizing, and characterizing NDT instruments and devices
  2. New NDT investigation methods
  3. Methods and devices to optimize the performance of existing NDT techniques
  4. Data processing for NDT
  5. Sensors and Transducers for NDT in aerospace applications
  6. Advanced techniques for NDT measurements
