In comparison to manual NDT methods, mechanized NDT is considered to be more reliable for a number of reasons, one of which being that the role of the inspectors and, therewith, the potential for human error, have been reduced. However, human-automation interaction research suggests that in spite of its numerous benefits, automation can lead to new yet unknown risks. One of those risks is inappropriate reliance on automation, which can result in automation misuse and disuse. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential inappropriate use of automation (specifically - the automated aids) in NDT addressing therewith the prevalent belief in the high reliability of automation held by the NDT community. To address this issue, 70 NDT trainees were asked to control the results of an eddy current data evaluation, allegedly provided by an automated aid, i.e. indication detection and sizing software. Seven errors were implemented into the task and it was measured to what extent the participants agreed with the aid. The results revealed signs of both misuse (agreeing with the aid even though it is incorrect) and disuse (disagreeing with the aid even though it is correct) of the aid that can affect the reliability with which inspections are carried out. Whereas misuse could be explained by a lower propensity to take risks and by a decreased verification behaviour-possibly due to bias towards automation and complacent behaviour-, disuse was assigned to problems in establishing the sizing criterion or to general difficulties in sizing. The implications of these results for the NDT praxis including suggestions for the decrease of automation bias are discussed.
Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) are more and more used in modern civil aircrafts. These days the whole fuselage is made of this material (B787; A350). Due to strict certification standards the normal in-service loading gives a low stress level compared to the static and even the fatigue strength of the material. Hence CFRP are assumed to have an infinite life. To evaluate this assumption, fatigue tests on CFRP-specimens were performed up to 108 load cycles and the first inter-fibre failure was evaluated non-destructively by accompanying Xray-refraction topography. A tensile testing machine was integrated in a small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) setup. X-ray refraction topography was performed while the CFRP samples were tensile loaded. This non-destructive technique enables the detection of micro-cracking and inter-fibre failure especially for CFRP. For Glass Fibre Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) X-ray refraction and in-situ loading has already been successfully used. The increase of inner surfaces due to inter fibre failure was measured as a function of the stress state. Fatigue tests were performed at and below the limit of inter-fibre failure strength. State of the art is to assume the failure of the samples under cyclic loading as the fatigue life. Accompanying non-destructive X-ray refraction measurements reflects the damage state and enables to trace its evolution even if the total failure of the specimens does not occur. This investigation technique is of high interest to give the engineer a design value of infinite life which is practically often reached due to knock down factors of certification standards. Finally the infinite life was found for cyclic fatigue loaded CFRP-samples even under high inter fibre transverse and shear loading investigated up to 108 load cycles.
Evaluation of high spatial resolution imaging of magnetic stray fields for early damage detection
(2016)
Metal magnetic memory (MMM) technique with associated ISO 24497-1:3 is gaining considerable interest in the magnetic NDT community. In contrast to traditional Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) testing, the inspection objects are not intentionally magnetized by an external magnetic field. Due to the physical coupling between mechanical stress and magnetization of ferromagnetic materials, it is assumed that the distribution of the residual MFL correspond to the internal stress of the specimen, or in the most general sense, to a degradation of the material.
Usually, MMM measurements are performed by relatively bulky magnetic inspection sensors. The evaluation of local magnetic field distribution is limited thereby. Highprecision GMR (Giant Magneto Resistance) measurements in the micrometer regime can provide a higher degree of information due to better spatial resolution.
We present a concise summary of studies on the correlation of magnetic structure and microstructure of steels. In particular, we compare residual stress measurements in S235JRC steel welds by means of neutron diffraction with high resolution magnetic field mappings. Results indicate a qualitative correlation between residual stresses and local stray field variation. In addition, stray field measurements of plastically deformed specimens for quasi-static and cyclic loading cases are discussed. The present study concludes that GMR sensors can detect inhomogeneous plastic deformations of S235JR steel in a very early stage, without specific signal processing according to the ISO 24497-1:3.
Elastic wave propagation of ultrasound in bituminous road surfaces – simulations and measurements
(2015)
Maintenance costs of road infrastructure are increasing steadily. Adverse environmental impacts on infrastructure get more and more important as well. Therefore, it is important to determine how limited financial resources can be directed with an optimum pay-out. The present study takes first steps towards the usage of low-frequency ultrasound as a tool to evaluate the road condition.
