ABSTRACT:
Discloses a method of non-destructively testing an aluminum-to-copper butt weld in a bar comprising an aluminum section and a copper section joined together by said weld. Forces are applied to the bar in such a manner that the weld is subjected to total stresses that are at least 80 percent, and preferably at least 90 percent, shear stresses. An acoustic emission signal is produced by the stresses at the weld, and this signal is sensed by a suitable transducer to provide an indication of weld quality.
