Best Answer

You can have visual inspection, x-ray, ultrasound, magnetic testing. The seam can be ground, polished and tested with a stain marker. You can weld a test piece and have it submitted to destructive testing where it's pulled or bent until failure.

How is radiation used to check welds?

A source of gamma radiation is placed on one side of the weld, and a photographic film is placed on the other. Bubbles and weak points will appear on the film.

Why should you not touch radioactive element with bare hands?

Radioactive sources are used in several different ways. In medicine they can be used for investigation as tracers, or to give treatment to tumors for example. In industry they can be used to examine welds for defects. In nuclear plants they can be used to check and calibrate instruments. Different types and strengths are required depending on the task in hand.


Why aircrafts body is riveted?

Air craft are mostly made from aluminum. Welding aluminum parts is very difficult to do. Conventional welding is not applicable to aluminum although some techniques to that exist. However there are limitations to welding in general 1) Difficult to control the quality of the welds. For this purpose the welds need to go thru x-ray or ultrasound or some other quality assurance procedure. 2) Welds are prone to fatigue failure. Fatigue failure happens without much warning thus difficult to catch during inspections. 3) Welds are difficult to undo/redo for planes in service. Service or inspection may require access under the fuselage (skin) of a plane. Undo and redo the weld is dangerous to perform on the winds of a plane where fuel tanks are located. With comparison to rivets welding also in disadvantage 1) Ductility of welds is lower. (Ductility - ability to plasticly stretch without failure) Thus if overstress occurs the weld breaks suddenly and rivet deforms to allow stress redistribution. Plastic deformation is easy to detect during inspection.


What are uses of nuclear energy toward industry?

Mainly generation of electricity. However production of isotopes used to examine structures such as welds, to calibrate instruments, or to incorporate into devices such as smoke alarms, is also important. These radioisotopes are produced in small reactors built for the purpose. They also produce medical radioisotopes.
