“…In this project, a technique, specifically geared towards NDE x-ray radiography has been developed that uses a piecewise linear curve model for crack-like flaws and an ellipsoidal model for volumetric flaws (Wallingford and Basart 1988, 1989a, 1989b). In the piecewise linear curve model, the endpoints of the linear segments that model the crack are reconstructed from two or more stereographic or rotational pro jections.…”
