ABOUT
ASNT Research Symposium is one of the premier platforms for exchanging information on groundbreaking,
trending and emerging research, technology transfer and engineering practices in the field of nondestructive
evaluation (NDE). During the Symposium, you will have numerous opportunities to explore, discuss and share
your experiences on cutting edge NDE technologies—from research level to real-world application.

The theme for 2019 Research Symposium is “Advancing NDE Technologies, Research and Engineering in a
Changing World” and will address key research, development and innovation of advancing NDE technologies
and bridge gaps in NDE research, engineering and technology transfer.

The symposium will include presentations in innovative

NDE research and development areas such as:

ɳɳ Advancing/Emerging NDE Methods ɳɳ Radiography NDE

ɳɳ Automation/Robotics in NDE
ɳɳ Electromagnetics NDE
ɳɳ Engineering Design for Inspectibility
ɳɳ Industry 4.0 and NDE
ɳɳ NDE in Additive Manufacturing
ɳɳ NDE Modeling and Simulation
ɳɳ Structural Health Monitoring
• Prognostic and Predictive
ɳɳ NDE for Aerospace/Composites
ɳɳ NDE of Railroads
ɳɳ Passive Wireless Sensors
ɳɳ Pipeline and Petroleum NDE
ɳɳ Thermal NDE Methods
ɳɳ Ultrasonics NDE Methods

We will continue to offer short courses on Monday, April 1. If you have an interest in submitting a proposal for a
Short Course, please contact the ASNT Conference Department at conferences@asnt.org.

On behalf of the organizing committee, we would like to extend a warm invitation to you and your colleagues to
