V. Sloan, Victor Aviation, Palo Alto, CA; R. Papp, Air Liquide US LP, Countryside, IL; F. Diekman, Controlled Thermal Processing, Park City, IL

This paper discusses the use of Cryogenic NDT(tm) processing as a non destructive test process to determine residual stress of metallic materials. Applications include Aerospace, Vechicle, Wind Energy, Piston and Turbine Powerplants and Transmissions. Testing involves Cryogenic Processing, Computer and Laser Coordinate Measuring, Acoustic Resonance and Finite Element Analysis.
