  1. An investigation of the excitation frequency dependent behavior of fiber reinforced epoxy composites during vibrothermographic inspection

    … in fiber reinforced composites during vibrothermography, the use of active thermography with a mechanical excitation for the nondestructive evaluation of a structure or part. Two models, one where the size and geometry of the flaw control a local resonance and the other where the part …

  3. Delamination dynamics and vibrothermographic-thermoelastic evaluation of advanced composite materials

    … was justified. Two NDE methods namely, Vibrothermography and SPATE were used to verify the numerical predictions. Experiments performed for both undamaged and damaged specimens, and good correlation between theory and testing was achieved.

    … also inspected constituting an application of vibrothermography on real damaged components. The degree of heating of the damage were measured through a frequency range, and the damage severity was inspected by ultrasonic C-scan and edge replication. From comparison of two plots of the degree of …
