This course builds upon foundational knowledge, focusing on advanced principles and practical applications of industrial radiographic testing (RT). The curriculum delves deeper into radiographic interpretation, image quality analysis, and defect evaluation. The course covers advanced topics such as geometric unsharpness, exposure techniques, and radiographic sensitivity, including the use of image quality indicators (IQIs). Students learn to select and optimize radiographic equipment and techniques for various materials and component geometries, and how to apply relevant codes and standards.
