Therefore, and especially for safety relevant structures, non-destructive methods are required for the assessment of such damages. Active thermography methods are suitable to characterize damages after loading using different kind of excitation techniques and various configurations of infrared (IR) camera and heating sources. Here, flash lamps, impulse excitation with infrared radiator and lock-in technique with halogen lamps or widened laser beams are suited. In addition, non-optical sources like sonotrodes (requiring direct contact to the structure) or induction generators (only suited for carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) structures) could be applied as well. For the investigation of the evolution of the damage during the impact, passive thermography can be applied in-situ. Elastic and plastic deformations alter the temperature of the structure and thus the temperature on the surface. In this contribution, at first the general principles of quantitative defect characterisation in FRC using active thermography with flash, impulse and lock-in excitation are described. Optical and thermal properties of the FRC material and its anisotropy are considered. Results of phase differences obtained at flat bottom holes with flash and lock-in thermography are compared for qualifying both methods for quantitative defect characterization. Secondly, the damage evolution of CFRP and GFRP structures under impact load and static tensile loading is described. The spatial and temporal evolution of the surface temperature enables us to distinguish matrix cracks or fibre-matrix separation from delaminations between the layers. Afterwards, all results for loading defects, obtained by passive and active thermography, are compared with each other. Fig. 1 and 2 show the difference of passive and flash thermography obtained at impact and tensile loaded CFRP plates, respectively. As one purpose of these investigations is the development of standards within national (DIN) and European (CEN) standardisation bodies, new draft and final standards are presented and further needs are discussed at the end of the presentation.

T1 - Non-destructive testing of Cu solder connections using active thermography N2 - Impulse and lock-in thermography have been applied to detect delaminations of prototype solder joints, similar to those to be produced between Cu shunts and Cu busbar stabilisers at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Two infrared cameras with different detector materials and with different spectral ranges and two excitation techniques have been tested and compared for their ability to detect delaminations behind 2 and 3 mm thick Cu shunts. We have analyzed the signal to noise ratio (SNR) for each detected defect and are able to detect defects down to a nominal edge length of 4 mm behind 2 mm thick Cu shunts by using fast impulse thermography and a camera with a microbolometer array. For the 3 mm thick Cu shunt, on the other hand, the nominal 4 mm defect is only visible in the lock-in thermography phase images and the highest SNR has been achieved with a cooled InSb-based camera. In addition, numerical simulations show the influence of the minimum detectable defect size on the shunt thickness and that the developed on-site testing technique is sufficient to find all defects that are detectable theoretically.

Der Vorteil dieser Wärmequellen liegt in ihren relativ geringen Anschaffungskosten bei gleichzeitig hohen Leistungsdichten am Prüfobjekt. Nachteilig ist bei den Halogenlampen die Limitierung der möglichen Modulationsffequenz auf ca. 1 Hz für die Anwendung dieser Quelle in der Lockin-Thermografie. Blitzlampen bieten für gewöhnlich nur eine feste Blitzdauer bei einer geringen Taktrate. Beide Anregungsquellen müssen in Reflexionsanordnung mit Filtern betrieben werden um die entstehende thermische Eigenstrahlung als Störquelle zu eliminieren. Wir stellen Untersuchungen an Hochleistungs-LEDs für den Einsatz in der aktiven Thermografie vor. Diese Lichtquellen werden durch die rasante Entwicklung der möglichen Leistungsdichten nun auch für die thermografische ZfP interessant. Sie zeigen ähnlich dem Laser eine schmale und auf den Werkstoff abstimmbare spektrale Verteilung der Strahlungsleistung bei moderaten Kosten. Die zugrunde liegende Elektrolumineszenz generiert kaum Wärmestrahlung und ermöglicht dadurch die Prüfung während des Erwärmungsvorganges ohne größeren Aufwand. Modulationsfrequenzen über 100 Hz mit thermischen Eindringtiefen < 1 mm sind möglich. Dadurch qualifizieren sich die LEDs zur Anwendung in der Lockin-Thermografie von Metallen und zur oberflächennahen Prüfung von Schichtsystemen. Durch die fast verzögerungsffeie Reaktion der LED auf das steuernde Signal sind nahezu beliebige zeitliche Anregungsformen möglich. Mit solch flexiblen Anregungsformen ließen sich bereits bei den photothermischen Verfahren erfolgreich höhere Tiefenreichweiten und -auflösungen gegenüber den klassischen Methoden der monofrequenten Lockin - und energiereichen Kurzimpuls-Anregung erzielen. Untersuchungen dieser Möglichkeiten im praktischen Einsatz der HochleistungsLEDs werden vorgestellt und mit herkömmlichen Lichtquellen verglichen.

A1 - Ziegler, Mathias T1 - PCA-enhanced Computational Thermography for the Non-destructive Investigation of the Historic Bücker Bü 181 Aircraft N2 - Infrared thermography is a widely recognized non-destructive testing (NDT) method used in material research and defect detection across various industrial applications. Moreover, thermography plays a crucial role in preserving cultural heritage, including historical paintings and buildings. This study focuses on the application of thermography in inspecting the historic Bücker Bü 181 aircraft, which was used in Germany during World War II. Over time, the original appearance of aircraft has often been altered as part of preservation efforts, either before or during their time in museums, leading to deviations from their historically original state. Additionally, the operational history of such objects is frequently undocumented or entirely lost, making it difficult to understand the presence of artifacts and historically significant data. These factors present major challenges in cultural heritage preservation, and destructive methods cannot be used to investigate such invaluable objects. Therefore, thermography is implemented as a non-destructive and contactless examination method. Active flash thermography combined with phase analysis is a powerful tool for evaluating multilayer systems. In this study, multiple layers of old paint on the object posed a challenge in assessing defect conditions and retrieving other critical information beneath the surface coatings. Nevertheless, pulse thermography not only demonstrated its capability to identify defects and markings in multilayered coatings but also provided insights into the internal structure and subsections of the investigated aircraft.

T1 - Characterization of pores in high pressure die cast aluminum using active thermography and computed tomography N2 - Larger high pressure die castings (HPDC) and decreasing wall thicknesses are raising the issue of casting defects like pores in aluminum structures. Properties of components are often strongly influenced by inner porosity. As these products are being established more and more in lightweight construction (e.g. automotive and other transport areas), non-destructive testing methods, which can be applied fast and on-site, are required for quality assurance. In this contribution, the application of active thermography for the direct detection of larger pores is demonstrated. The analysis of limits and accuracy of the method are completed by numerical simulation and the method is validated using computed tomography.

In most cases, only phase images are analyzed, although the amplitude images might contain useful information as well. Thus, systematic studies of lockin thermography are presented, assessing amplitude and phase images for the detection and quantification of defects in isotropic (steel) and anisotropic (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) materials. Characterized defects are flat bottom holes with different diameters and various remaining wall thicknesses as well as crossed notches at different depths. The excitation frequency was varied while keeping the number of analyzed excitation periods nearly constant for each material. The data analysis was focused on the detectability of the defects both in the amplitude and phase images, including the determination of the signal-to-noise ratio and of the spatial resolution.

Since delaminated fagade elements show geometric as well as thermal anomalies, surface geometry and defects beneath the surface were investigated. As methods, Stereo photogrammetry, a tracking based method for tactile recording of geometric 3D data and active thermography were used. Two case studies were assessed with a combination of these methods: the plaster scratches at the Magdeburg Cathedral and a mural painting in Cobbelsdorf, both located in Germany. While the plaster scratches have been investigated by artificial heating with an infrared radiator, the rural painting was tested by analysing the temperature increase due to solar heating.

From the experimental point of view, both techniques have their advantages and disadvantages. Concerning the comparison of the testing results of both techniques, only very few studies have been performed in the past. In this contribution, the phase values obtained at flat bottom holes in steel and CFRP and the spatial resolution measured at crossed notches in steel using flash and lock-in excitation are compared quantitatively.

N2 - This paper presents results of the non-destructive evaluation of CFRP and GFRP test specimens with various artificial defects using active thermography. After heating the specimens with flash lamps or with an infrared radiator, the temporal and spatial resolved temperature distribution is recorded with an infrared camera. For the reconstruction of the experimental data, a numerical model was developed. For the numerical simulations, the thermal and optical material parameters had to be determined, which is described in this contribution as well. The results of numerical modelling are compared to experimental data of active thermography. Additionally, the experimental results are assessed related to the two materials CFRP and GFRP by considering the partial transmissivity of the GFRP material, and to the different excitation sources.

T1 - Evaluation of different techniques of active thermography for quantification of artificial defects in fiber-reinforced composites using thermal and phase contrast data analysis N2 - For assuring the safety and reliability of components and constructions in energy applications made of fiber-reinforced polymers (e.g., blades of wind turbines and tidal power plants, engine chassis, flexible oil and gas pipelines) innovative non-destructive testing methods are required. Within the European Project VITCEA complementary methods (shearography, microwave, ultrasonics and thermography) have been further developed and validated. Together with partners from the industry, test specimens have been constructed and selected on-site containing different artificial and natural defect artefacts. As base materials, carbon and glass fibers in different orientations and layering embedded in different matrix materials (epoxy, polyamide) have been considered. In this contribution, the validation of flash and lock-in thermography to these testing problems is presented. Data analysis is based on thermal contrasts and phase evaluation techniques. Experimental data are compared to analytical and numerical models. Among others, the influence of two different types of artificial defects (flat bottom holes and delaminations) with varying diameters and depths and of two different materials (CFRP and GFRP) with unidirectional and quasi-isotropic fiber alignment is discussed.

Here, mainly the thickness of the component is essential. The non-destructive evaluation of these damages can be carried out using both ultrasound and active thermography methods. A comparison of the detection sensitivity of these methods for the different damages is carried out in this paper depending on the fibre composite material used (CFRP and GFRP), the thickness of the material and the impact energy. The NDT methods used after the damage are supplemented by thermographic measurements with high temporal resolution, which were already recorded during the impact.

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.

T1 - 3D-Kartierung von oberflächennahen Schäden an Bauwerken und Bauteilen N2 - Die messtechnische Erfassung von Bauwerkschäden ist eine wichtige Voraussetzung für die dreidimensionale und zeitaufgelöste Darstellung von möglicherweise sicherheitsrelevanten Veränderungen an Bauwerken, wie z. B. Verformungen, Verwindungen und Risswachstum. Ziel des vorgestellten Projektes war die Entwicklung eines Verfahrens zur effizienten und wiederholbaren 3D-Schadenkartierung an zum Teil empfindlichen Bauteiloberflächen.

Thermographic testing (TT) is a well established nondestructive testing method under laboratory conditions. It is suited to detect typical structural features and also faults and damages within the blade structure. However, the onsite application for wind turbines during Operation is not straightforward. Some resuits of non-rotating blades as well as of rotating blades are presented. The simultaneous recording of all blades in the rotating state allows the application of a reference method suppressing disturbing influences and leading to enhanced thermal contrasts.
