This test gives information on reliability, comparability and efficiency of different testing situations. Data recorded on metal and CFRP test specimens with flat bottom holes (FBH) were analysed by evaluating the detectability and by calculating the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the defect signatures as a function of defect parameters. For the investigation of the influence of material properties on the spatial resolution as well as on penetration depth, test specimens made of steel and copper with crossed notches and a notch ramp were constructed and investigated. Here, the minimum resolvable notch distance and the maximum detectable depth of the ramp were analysed.

T1 - Probability of detection analysis of round robin test results performed by flash thermography N2 - Within the scope of a standardisation research project, a flash thermography round robin test that evaluates reliability, comparability and efficiency of different testing situations was performed. Data recorded at metal test specimens with flat bottom holes (FBHs) were analysed by calculating the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the defect signatures in the thermograms as well as in the phase images as a function of defect parameters. A new multi-parameter probability of detection (POD) model was developed, where an â versus a continuous signal analysis was based on the linear relationship between the SNR and a multi-parameter a. This linear relationship was verified by comparison to data obtained from an analytical model that is considering lateral thermal heat diffusion as well as to data obtained by numerical simulation. The resulting POD curves for the thermograms and phase images give an estimation for the detectability of the FBHs with known geometry in steel using different equipment and obtained by different participants. By comparing the SNRs of FBHs with similar geometries, this POD model was transferred to aluminium and copper as well.

T1 - Quantitative defect reconstruction in active thermography for fiber-reinforced composites N2 - Carbon-fiber reinforced composites are becoming more and more important in the production of light-weight structures, e.g., in the automotive and aerospace industry. Thermography is often used for non-destructive testing of These products, especially to detect delaminations between different layers of the composite. In this presentation, we aim at methods for defect reconstruction from thermographic measurements of such carbon-fiber reinforced composites. The reconstruction results shall not only allow to locate defects, but also give a quantitative characterization of the defect properties. We discuss the simulation of the measurement process using finite element methods, as well as the experimental validation on flat bottom holes. Especially in pulse thermography, thin boundary layers with steep temperature gradients occurring at the heated surface need to be resolved. Here we use the combination of a 1D analytical solution combined with numerical solution of the remaining defect equation. We use the simulations to identify material Parameters from the measurements. Finally, fast heuristics for reconstructing defect geometries are applied to the acquired data, and compared for their accuracy and utility in detecting different defects like back surface defects or delaminations.
