The Inner Fixed Structure (IFS) bond panel is a honeycomb sandwich with CFRP facesheet and heat shield on one side, perforated the other of jet engine nacelle. It subjected to extreme temperature both sides which damages inner epoxy adhesive between core. Accessibility this layer for non-destructive evaluation extremely challenging using conventional methods. This work proposes active thermography techniques such as flash induction accessing layer. infrared camera utilises perforations in...

The detection and characterization of cracks prior to damage is a technologically economically highly significant task very importance when it comes safety-relevant structures. evaluation components life closely related the presence in it. Laser thermography has already high capability for surface geometry artificial flaws metallic samples. Crack samples at temperature present manufacturing scenario. During casting process billets, form, due suboptimal cooling rates. These reduce value...

The induction heating using a circular coil in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) laminates produces unique patterns, significantly influenced by the fiber orientations each layer and electrical contacts between layers. This study investigates these patterns thermography reveals transition from to rectangular under influence of coil. shift is driven changes interlaminar microstructure, particularly increasing separation at interfaces, interpreted as fewer contacts. research also presents...
