In addition to the standardization of the selection of appropriate equipment and procedures for testing and data analysis, the new standard will provide suitable reference test specimens for several materials, including CFRP as used in aerospace applications with typical flaws. We will particularly consider these test specimens which should enable qualification of the equipment as well as the validation of the flash thermography method for CFRP in general.

Both methods are applied more and more in research and industry, but until know it is not clear which are the advantages of one method against the other. In this paper, results of two research projects concerning the validation and standardisation of both methods are presented. Three different types of CFRP test specimens consisting of well-defined flat bottom holes, of artificial delaminations made of PTFE plates embedded in CFRP and of real impact damage have been investigated systematically with flash and lockin excitation. Here, the phase images of both methods are compared qualitatively as well as quantitatively.

Both methods are applied more and more often in research and industry, but still extensive validation procedures are required for each individual application. In this paper, the results of two research projects concerning the validation and standardisation of both methods are presented. This includes results of a detailed study of the influence of measurements parameters on flash thermography, of the comparison of the lateral resolution obtained with flash and lock-in thermography and the description of a draft standard for flash thermography.
