Inspection of thin and multi-depth delamination and foreign inclusion defects inside glass
fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites is a challenge for traditional non-destructive …

Pores are inevitably produced during the production of glass fiber reinforced polymers
(GFRP). Quantitative characterization of porosity is a most important aspect of performance …

Featured Application It is demonstrated that a line scan thermography (LST) system using a
microbolometer camera can be used for the detection of porosity and impact damage in …

Fibre waviness is a frequently encountered problem in composite design and manufacturing
as it can severely influence mechanical properties of components. In this work, we propose …

In this work, we present a multimodal approach to three-dimensionally quantify and visualize
fiber orientation and resin-rich areas in carbon-fiber-reinforced polymers manufactured by …

This work aims to compare quantitatively different nondestructive testing (NDT) techniques
and data fusion features for the evaluation of adhesive bonding quality. Adhesively bonded …

Mineral building materials suffer from weathering processes such as salt efflorescence,
freeze–thaw cycling, and microbial colonization. All of these processes are linked to water …

Direct visualization is often sought to elucidate flow patterns and validate models to predict
the filling kinetics during processes whereby a liquid resin infiltrates a textile porous preform …

This study proposes a model that relates the carbon fiber arrangement and orientation in
CFRP to the dark-field images captured by X-ray Talbot-Lau interferometer (TLI). X-ray TLI …
