Increased use of integral structures and sensory materials in new aerospace vehicles provides potential to reduce assembly time, reduce damage initiation features, and enhance identification of damage as compared to current built up structures. In this work the nondestructive evaluation requirements of these next generation materials and structures is examined. In particular, electromagnetic methods are explored for the characterization of residual stresses in integral structures and for the characterization embedded sensory alloy particles in an aluminum alloy matrix.
