TY - CONF A1 - Lecompagnon, Julien T1 - Full-frame thermographic super-resolution with 2D-structured laser heating N2 - Thermographic super-resolution techniques allow the resolution of defects/inhomogeneities beyond the classical limit, which is governed by the diffusion properties of thermal wave propagation. Photothermal super-resolution is based on a combination of an experimental scanning strategy and a numerical optimization which has been proven to be superior to standard thermographic methods in the case of 1D linear defects. In this contribution, we report on the extension of this approach towards a full frame 2D photothermal super-resolution technique. The experimental approach is based on a repeated spatially structured heating using high power lasers. In a second post-processing step, several measurements are coherently combined using mathematical optimization and taking advantage of the (joint) sparsity of the defects in the sample. In our work we extend the possibilities of the method to efficiently detect and resolve defect cross sections with a fully 2D-structured blind illumination.

Basierend auf einer Kombination aus der Anwendung spezieller Abtaststrategien und einer anschließenden numerischen Optimierungsschritt bei der Datenauswertung hat sich die thermografische Super Resolution bereits bei der Detektion von 1D-Defekten gegenüber den Standard-Thermografieverfahren als überlegen erwiesen. In unserer Arbeit erweitern wir die Möglichkeiten der Methode zur effizienten Detektion und Auflösung von Defektquerschnitten mit einer vollständig 2D-strukturierten Erwärmung. Der experimentelle Ansatz basiert auf einer wiederholten räumlich strukturierten Erwärmung durch einen Hochleistungslaser. In einem zweiten Nachbearbeitungsschritt werden mehrere kohärente Messungen mittels mathematischer Optimierung und unter Ausnutzung der (Joint-) Sparsity der Defekte innerhalb des Prüfkörpers kombiniert. Als Ergebnis kann eine 2D-sparse Defekt-/ Inhomogenitätskarte erhalten werden. Da die Kombination von räumlich strukturierter Erwärmung und anschließender numerischer Kombination mehrerer kohärenter Messungen nicht nur die Auflösung verbessert, sondern auch die Messkomplexität drastisch erhöht, werden verschiedene Scanstrategien untersucht. Abschließend werden die erhaltenen Ergebnisse mit denen konventioneller thermografischer Prüfverfahren verglichen.

T1 - Investigations on photothermal super resolution reconstruction using 2D-structured illumination patterns N2 - Active thermography as a nondestructive testing modality suffers greatly from the limitations imposed by the diffusive nature of heat conduction in solids. As a rule of thumb, the detection and resolution of internal defects/inhomogeneities is limited to a defect depth to defect size ratio greater than or equal to one. Earlier, we demonstrated that this classical limit can be overcome for 1D and 2D defect geometries by using photothermal laser-scanning super resolution. In this work we report a new experimental approach using 2D spatially structured illumination patterns in conjunction with compressed sensing and computational imaging methods to significantly decrease the experimental complexity and make the method viable for investigating larger regions of interest.

T1 - Thermographic testing using 2D pseudo-random illumination and photothermal super resolution reconstruction N2 - Due to the diffusive nature of heat propagation in solids, the detection and resolution of internal defects with active thermography based non-destructive testing is commonly limited to a defect-depth-to-defect-size ratio greater than or equal to one. In the more recent past, we have already demonstrated that this limitation can be overcome by using a spatially modulated illumination source and photothermal super resolution-based reconstruction. Furthermore, by relying on compressed sensing and computational imaging methods we were able to significantly reduce the experimental complexity to make the method viable for investigating larger regions of interest. In this work we share our progress on improving the defect/inhomogeneity characterization using fully 2D spatially structured illumination patterns instead of scanning with a single laser spot. The experimental approach is based on the repeated blind pseudo-random illumination using modern projector technology and a high-power laser. In the subsequent post-processing, several measurements are then combined by taking advantage of the joint sparsity of the defects within the sample applying 2D-photothermal super resolution reconstruction. Here, enhanced nonlinear convex optimization techniques are utilized for solving the underlying ill-determined inverse problem for typical simple defect geometries. As a result, a higher resolution defect/inhomogeneity map can be obtained at a fraction of the measurement time previously needed.
