Popis: The problem of subsurface water and seepage location has classically utilized borings and interpolated information between them. Since high expenses can result and the intermittant information remain less than desirable, the search for a nondestructive test (NDT) method has attracted much attention. This paper presents a number of these NDT methods in outline form. Included is a review of detection methods based on flow measurement, tracers, temperature, infrared, microwave, geophysical, and acoustic emission sending schemes. A comparison of the methods and some generalized remarks conclude the paper.
