TY - CONF A1 - Hosseini, Seyed T1 - Characterization and optimization of ultrasonic tests for the inspection of fiber-reinforced plastic composites N2 - Applications of fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) composites in modern industries are increasing due to their considerable advantages such as light weight and excellent mechanical properties. Accordingly, importance of operational safety of modern structures made of advanced composites by ensuring the material quality has led to increasing demands for development of non-destructive evaluation (NDE) systems. In the context of a European project entitled “Validated Inspection Techniques for Composites in Energy Applications” (VITCEA), the aim is to develop and validate traceable procedures for novel NDE techniques with contrasting damage detection capabilities in energy related applications such as wind and marine turbine blades, nacelles, oil and gas flexible risers. Accordingly, VITCEA focuses on optimization of ultrasonic tests (UTs) for quantitative defect detection and quality characterization of FRP structures. In this context, the present study describes the ultrasound field in heterogeneous composite materials. The theoretical predictions are compared with simulation results obtained from CIVA a software package dedicated to NDT simulations based on the asymptotic ray theory.

T1 - Quantitative Bewertung künstlicher und natürlicher Fehler in Faserverbundwerkstoffen mit aktiver Thermografie und Ultraschall N2 - Im EMRP-Projekt VITCEA werden komplementäre ZFP-Verfahren zur Prüfung von Faserverbundwerkstoffen weiterentwickelt und validiert. In diesem Beitrag werden Ergebnisse verschiedener Techniken der aktiven Thermografie und des Ultraschalls vorgestellt. Die Nachweisempfindlichkeiten bezüglich künstlicher und natürlicher Fehler mit unterschiedlichen lateralen Ausdehnungen und in verschiedenen Tiefen werden miteinander verglichen.
