Abstract
To implement new process control strategies including Intelligent Processing of Materials, advanced sensors are required to nonintrusively evaluate process and microstructure variables. Researchers increasingly are looking to innovative extensions of traditional nondestructive evaluation technologies, such as ultrasonics, acoustic emission, and eddy current methodologies for this. Here, the nature and characteristics of emerging sensors based upon these new measurement methods are described and examples of their application discussed.
