papers on the needs for NDT, highlight the recent and future developments within these areas and detail where the techniques may usefully be used, with particular reference to the plastic and rubber industries.
The Plastics and Rubber Institute, 11 Hobart Place, London S W l W OHL, UK Now available from NDT Instruments is the Optima series of ultrasonic transducers, offered in immersion, anglebeam, contact, delay line, protective face and dual element forms. Optima transducers are claimed to feature unusually high performance, reliability, uniformity and long life. Standard models are available for flaw detection, thickness gauging, weld inspection, corrosion monitoring, pipe/ tubing inspection and other common NDT applications. Where custom designs are needed, ND T Instruments says it will develop prototypes and special, documented transducers following customer specifications.

Non-destructive Testing for Product Reliability is the subject
of a one-day conference to be held on 6 February 1987 in Solihull,
UK. During recent years, considerable developments have taken place in non-destructive testing methods to such an extent that many of them may now be economically used on a routine basis. Such testing methods as X-ray, holography, ultrasonics or infra-red may be used either to screen production at up to 100% levels or to closely monitor the progress of failure in samples tested by traditional fatigue methods so that the sample is not completely destroyed, rendering a detailed analysis difficult or impossible. The speakers at the conference, organized by the Plastics and Rubber Institute, will present
Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in London, UK, and an associated exhibition will be held. Those intel"ested in contributing oral or poster papers or in exhibiting should contact:
Conference Associates ND T, 27a Medway Street, Westminster, London S W I P 2BD, UK
Papers are requested for New The Physical Acoustics Group of the Institute of Physics will hold a one-day meeting on Acoustic
Microscopy and its Applications on 24 February 1987 in Burlington House, Piccadilly, London. The meeting will follow the same pattern as developed at the Group's previous meeting on this topic of providing a forum for the presentation of new developments in the technique of applications and of short reports of new work in progress. Abstracts of offered contributions and requests for further information about the meeting should be sent to: Dr D.P.
Almond, School of Materials Science, University of Bath, Claverton Down, Bath, Avon BA2 7AY, UK
Materials and their Applications, a conference to be held on
2 2 - 2 5 September 1987 at the University of Warwick, UK. NDT of new materials will be included in the programme, as will joining, microstructure, forming and behaviour in hostile environments. Invited review papers will be supplemented by contributed papers, abstracts for which should be sent by 16 March 1987 to:
Dr S.G Burnay, B149, AERE Harwell, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORA, UK Further details about the conference and exhibition may be obtained from: The Meetings
Officer, The Institute of Physics, 47 Belgrave Square, London SW I X 8QX, UK
Papers are requested tor the 1st
International SAMPE Metals and Metals Processing Conference ( 1 8 - 2 0 August 1987, Cherry Hill, N J, USA). Non-destructive testing will be one of the session topics of the conference, which has an overall theme of 'Competitive advances in metals and processes', Other sessions will include: metal matrix composites, aluminiumlithium, coatings, corrosion and powder metallurgy. Papers are also invited for applications sessions concerning aerospace, transport, basic metal industries and space. Prospective authors should send 1 50 to 250 word abstracts to: Mel Schwartz,
1st International SAMPE Conference on Metals and Metals Processing, 80 Rolling Meadows Road, Madison, CT 06443, USA. Completed abstracts are due 1 April 1987.
Further details have been received of the Fourth European Con-
ference on Non-Destructive Testing (13-18 September 1987). The event is to be held in the
NDT INTERNATIONAL. OCTOBER 1986
Papers are requested for Stainless Steels 87, to be held in York, UK, on 1 4 - 1 6 September 1987. Aspects to be covered include:
• steelmaking • casting • hot and cold working • mechanical properties (including nuclear, high temperature and cryogenic applications) • user aspects of welding, hot and cold forming, machining, etc • corrosion and environmental properties It is intended that the conference should cover all types of wrought or cast stainless steels such as the martensitic, duplex, and precipitation hardening types, as well as the conventional austenitic and fully ferritic grades. Those interested in contributing should send a 200-word abstract of their proposed presentation to:
