Abstract Infrared thermography using ultrasound thermal excitation of the tested material is one of the most effective methods in non-destructive testing of a multi-layer aramid composite. This type of material is very popular in the construction of light ballistic armours. Typical defects are delamination between layers of aramid fabric joined by resin. They are usually filled with air. Delamination located deep under the surface of the test generates very weak temperature signals. They are often at the level of noise. To reduce the impact of noise on the detection of a defect, special methods of image analysis (thermograms) are used. Such methods include principal component analysis and wavelet analysis. Principal Component Analysis is a relatively new procedure of statistical data treatment, which is becoming increasingly popular in non-destructive testing. Mathematically, it is often regarded as implementation of the so-called singular values decomposition technique, which allows extracting of spatial information from a matrix of source data. The wavelet analysis is an integral transform, which represents the convolution of an analysed process with a special mother function called wavelet. Wavelets are characterized by two parameters: scale and shift. The paper presents a comparison of the efficacy of these methods in the detection of defects in the multilayer composite reinforced aramid fibre.

Subsurface Defects

Detection of subsurface defects is undeniably a growing subfield of infrared non-destructive testing (IR-NDT). There are many algorithms used for this purpose, where non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is considered to be an interesting alternative to principal component analysis (PCA) by having no negative basis in matrix decomposition. Here, an application of Semi non-negative matrix factorization (Semi-NMF) in IR-NDT is presented to determine the subsurface defects of an Aluminum plate specimen through active thermographic method. To benchmark, the defect detection accuracy and computational load of the Semi-NMF approach is compared to state-of-the-art thermography processing approaches such as: principal component thermography (PCT), Candid Covariance-Free Incremental Principal Component Thermography (CCIPCT), Sparse PCT, Sparse NMF and standard NMF with gradient descend (GD) and non-negative least square (NNLS). The results show 86% accuracy for 27.5s computational time for SemiNMF, which conclusively indicate the promising performance of the approach in the field of IR-NDT.

Among widely used non-destructive testing (NDT) methods, infrared thermography (IRT) has gained importance due to its fast, whole-field, remote and quantitative inspection capabilities for the evaluation of various materials. Being fast and easy to implement, pulsed thermography (PT) plays a vital role in the infrared thermographic community. This paper provides a physical insight into the selection of empirical orthogonal functions obtained from principal component pulsed thermography for the detection of subsurface defects located inside a mild steel specimen.

Cayenne pepper fruit can be used for health because it is a source of antioxidants. Detection of quality fruit can use non-destructive methods as an alternative method. Visible short wavelength near infrared (Vis-SWNIR) spectroscopy is non-destructive measurement. This method can be used to discriminate fruit by using the principal component analysis (PCA). This research aimed to discriminate between Cayenne pepper with various maturity by using Vis-SWNIR spectroscopy with a wavelength of 300-1065 nm and principal component analysis (PCA). Cayenne pepper fruit was devided into three groups, namely green, orange and red. The spectrum used the absorbance spectrum data (original). The research was carried out from March to June 2020. The result showed that the use of Vis-SWNIR and PCA were able to discriminate various maturity of cayenne pepper with a 100% success rate.

Prestressed concrete (PSC) is widely used for the construction of bridges. The collapse of several bridges with PSC has been reported, and insufficient grout and tendon corrosion were found inside the ducts of these bridges. Therefore, non-destructive testing (NDT) technology is important for identifying defects inside ducts in PSC structures. Electromagnetic (EM) waves have limited detection of internal defects in ducts due to strong reflections from the surface of the steel ducts. Spectral analysis of the existing impact echo (IE) method is limited to specific conditions. Moreover, the flexural mode in upper defects of ducts located at a shallow depth and delamination defects inside ducts are not considered. In this study, the applicability of the elastic wave of IE was analyzed, and multichannel analysis of surface, EM, and shear waves was employed to evaluate six types of PSC structures. A procedure using EM waves, IE, and principal component analysis (PCA) was proposed for a more accurate classification of defect types inside ducts. The proposed procedure was effective in classifying upper, internal, and delamination defects of ducts under 100 mm in thickness, and it could be utilized up to 200 mm in the case of duct defect limitations.

ABSTRACTThe use of totally non-destructive techniques such as image spectroscopy for diagnosing paintings makes it possible to obtain a large amount of spectral data that provides information concerning the composition of works of art. Here, we stress how statistical treatments, such as principal component analysis (PCA), applied to 2-D data, can contribute to a better knowledge of the work of art itself and of the distribution of the materials that constitute it.Laboratory tests, as well as applications to actual paintings, will be presented and discussed.
