Abstract AE technique has been widely applied to detect and locate fatigue cracks in metallic structures. However, it is still a challenging task to accurately quantify the size of a fatigue crack using AE technique (Gagar et al., Smart Mater Struct 23(10):105033, 2014). The prospects of AE technique in rail crack monitoring would be significantly improved if it could be demonstrated not only as a means for identifying the existence of cracks but also for estimating their sizes. This chapter thus investigates the crack sizing method based on fatigue tests in the laboratory.
