Developments in fast modelling of processes, materials response and methodology in combination with appropriate knowledge based systems opens up the possibility of linking CAD/CAM with Computer Aided Serviceability (CAS) for use in a few industries. This paper reviews the tools and techniques which are available and being developed to implement this philosophy in non-destructive evaluation of offshore structures using fracture mechanics.

This paper describes the application, through examples and comparisons, of artificial intelligence including neural networks, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms in three levels of computer aided boiler design: design by mathematical modelling, design by optimization and design by knowledge-based systems. It reviews the state-of-the-art situation and trends for future development in boiler design practice.

The wave function expansion method is engaged for the theoretical derivations to study the effect of material parameters perturbations on the resonance acoustic scattering behavior of 1-3 piezoelectric composites. Numerical examples are provided to verify the effectiveness of the analysis. Results obtained are meaningful for the non-destructive evaluation of 1-3 piezoelectric composites.
