Recent Advances in Active Infrared Thermography for Non-Destructive Testing of Aerospace Components (2018, result): “However, these observations seem to be in contrast with what is usually seen in traditional thermography with external heat sources as cooling ramps are more efficient in detecting internal flaws [152].”
Infrared Thermography for Temperature Measurement and Non-Destructive Testing (2014, unknown): “Many investigations were conducted to define methodologies employing different excitation techniques [137,138] and processing algorithms [139].”
Surface Crack Detection for Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) Materials Using Pulsed Eddy Current Thermography (2011, background): “is the potential for rapid inspection of a large area within a short time, though currently it is mostly applied to samples in the lab instead of in situ structures [10].”
