Acoustic emission testing comprises a range of powerful techniques for exploiting the natural acoustic emission process and for gaining practical value from the available information. These techniques include means for characterizing the acoustic emission from particular materials and processes; for eliminating noise; for checking wave propagation properties of engineering structures and applying the results to test design; for loading that will optimize the acoustic emission data from a structure without causing appreciable damage; for locating acoustic emission sources, either roughly or precisely; methods of data analysis and presentation; and for acceptance, rejection or further inspection of the test structure
