Visual Acoustic Emission

It is usual to describe AE in terms of sound. But most of fracture processes are accompanied by AE in inaudible frequencies and therefore it is difficult for newcomers to imaging and understand the phenomenon. In www.muravin.com/AE you can find a number of movies that effectively visualizes AE phenomena.

Acoustic Emission education program/courses

Work in the field of Acoustic Emission (AE) requires a multidisciplinary knowledge in many scientific areas and appropriate experience. Nevertheless, currently, there are neither dedicated academic programs for preparation of AE specialists nor recommended practices for a self-study. As a result, preparation of new specialists in the field of AE is incomplete and takes a long time.

For methodological, systematic approach to preparation of AE specialists it necessary to prepare a dedicated educational program.  For this purpose I developed a map of Acoustic Emission science that combines theoretical and technological aspects. This map can be used as an outline of course of Acoustic Emission. This map can be downloaded also in pdf format.
