Thermal Wave Imaging For Characterizing Structures In Aging Aircraft
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
We present examples of the application of thermal wave imaging to the detection of structural defects in aging aircraft. Examples include the imaging of bonded and disbonded internal doublers, together with quantitative corrosion thinning measurements made from thermal wave images of aircraft fuselages and wing skins. We also show example images of impact damage, disbonds and delaminations in composite aircraft materials.
