    Thermographic non-destructive evaluation for natural fiber-reinforced composite laminates
    (Basel : MDPI, 2018-02-05) Avdelidis, Nicolas P.; Zhang, Hai; Sarasini, Fabrizio; Maldague, Xavier; Santulli, Carlo; Ibarra Castanedo, Clemente; Sfarra, Stefano; Fernandes, Henrique
    Natural fibers, including mineral and plant fibers, are increasingly used for polymer composite materials due to their low environmental impact. In this paper, thermographic non-destructive inspection techniques were used to evaluate and characterize basalt, jute/hemp and bagasse fibers composite panels. Different defects were analyzed in terms of impact damage, delaminations and resin abnormalities. Of particular interest, homogeneous particleboards of sugarcane bagasse, a new plant fiber material, were studied. Pulsed phase thermography and principal component thermography were used as the post-processing methods. In addition, ultrasonic C-scan and continuous wave terahertz imaging were also carried out on the mineral fiber laminates for comparative purposes. Finally, an analytical comparison of different methods was given.

    Enhanced infrared image processing for impacted carbon/glass fiber-reinforced composite evaluation
    (Molecular Diversity Preservation International (MDPI), 2017-12-26) Avdelidis, Nicolas P.; Zhang, Hai; Osman, Ahmad; Maldague, Xavier; Ibarra Castanedo, Clemente; Sfarra, Stefano; Fernandes, Henrique; Matikas, Theodore E.
    In this paper, an infrared pre-processing modality is presented. Different from a signal smoothing modality which only uses a polynomial fitting as the pre-processing method, the presented modality instead takes into account the low-order derivatives to pre-process the raw thermal data prior to applying the advanced post-processing techniques such as principal component thermography and pulsed phase thermography. Different cases were studied involving several defects in CFRPs and GFRPs for pulsed thermography and vibrothermography. Ultrasonic testing and signal-to-noise ratio analysis are used for the validation of the thermographic results. Finally, a verification that the presented modality can enhance the thermal image performance effectively is provided.

    An active infrared thermography method for fiber orientation assessment of fiber-reinforced composite materials
    (Pergamon, 2015-08-28) Zhang, Hai; Maldague, Xavier; Fernandes, Henrique
    Fiber orientation in composite materials is an important feature since the arrangement or orientation of the fibers relative to one another has a significant influence on the strength and other properties of fiber reinforced composites. In this paper we present a method to assess the fiber orientation on the surface of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates. More specifically, a diode-laser beam is used to locally heat a small spot on the surface of the sample. Observation of the heat pattern in the infrared spectrum enables the assessment of the fiber orientation. Different samples and different regions on the surface of the samples are tested in order to estimate the precision of the method.

    Fiber orientation assessment in complex shaped parts reinforced with carbon fiber using infrared thermography
    (Taylor & Francis, 2015-04-07) Maldague, Xavier; Fernandes, Henrique
    The use of composite materials is growing more and more every day in several applications. The arrangement or orientation of the fibers relative to one another have a significant influence on the strength and other properties of fiber reinforced composites. Thus, evaluation techniques are needed for measuring material fiber orientation. In this work infrared thermography is employed to assess the material’s fiber orientation. More specifically a pulsed infrared diode laser heating spot technique combined with a 3D model of the part is used in order to assess fiber orientation on the surface of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer complex shaped parts made of carbon/PEEK (Polyether ether ketone) randomly-oriented strands.
