A procedure aimed at nondestructive quality testing and determination of the residual stresses in welded structures is developed on the basis of the methods of electron shearography and speckle-interferometry. We create compact shearographic and speckle interferometric measuring systems capable of the investigation of welded structures under the conditions of their manufacturing and operation and present the results of diagnostics of the quality and stress states of the elements of welded panels made of VT-20 high-strength titanium alloy and the technology used for the evaluation of the diameter of weld-spot nugget.
