A series of free-to-attend webinars exploring the consequences of manufacturing induced imperfections on structural integrity and functional performance of engineering assets.

The series will highlight how defects such as porosity, inclusions, residual stresses, and surface anomalies influence reliability and lifespan of components produced by primary and secondary manufacturing processes as well as near-net methods.

By bridging industrial practice and academic research, the seminar aims to provide insights into how NDT, advanced inspection and monitoring methods can be utilised as key tools for defect detection and enable understanding for improved structural performance across engineering applications.
