The use of pulse-echo techniques <strong>for</strong> monitoring fatigue cracks in pressure<br />

vessels in laboratory tests is described in Ref 14. These techniques use<br />

several overlapping angle-beam (shear wave) search units, which are glued<br />

in place to ensure reproducible results as fatigue testing proceeded. The inservice<br />

monitoring of fatigue cracking of machine components is often<br />

accomplished without removing the component from its assembly.
