Overview

This book provides a thorough and coherent understanding of the fundamentals of microwave non-destructive evaluation principles. This is achieved by starting with the basic understanding of subjects such as waves, material media, interaction of waves at high frequencies with material media, understanding the fundamentals of reflection, refraction, transmission and wave polarization. All these issues are addressed in a concise manner providing a much needed text on this subject. Each chapter has a set of problems and questions, with solutions and worked examples, thus making the book of great use to those teaching in this area. This book will also be invaluable to all those conducting research in microwave NDE, whether based in an industrial or academic environment.
