Airfield pavement deterioration assessment using stress-dependent neural network models [PDF]
In this study, an artificial neural network (ANN)-based approach was employed to backcalculate the asphalt concrete and non-linear stress-dependent subgrade moduli from non-destructive test (NDT) data acquired at the Federal Aviation Administration\u27s ...

Multi-scale gapped smoothing algorithm for robust baseline-free damage detection in optical infrared thermography [PDF]
Flash thermography is a promising technique to perform rapid non-destructive testing of composite materials. However, it is well known that several difficulties are inherently paired with this approach, such as non-uniform heating, measurement noise and ...
