Pulsed Thermography: evaluation and quantitative analysis of defects through different post-processing algorithms

open access: yes, 2018
Pulsed thermography is commonly used as non-destructive technique for evaluating defects within materials and components. However, raw thermal imaging data are usually not suitable for quantitative evaluation of defects.

Stacked denoising autoencoder for infrared thermography image enhancement

open access: yes, 2021
Pulsed thermography is one of the most popular thermography inspection methods. During an experiment of pulsed thermography, a specimen is quickly heated, and infrared images are captured to provide information about the specimen's surface and subsurface

Modeling of Pulsed Thermography in Anisotropic Media

open access: yes, 1999
As active thermography continues to gain acceptance as an NDE tool for both inservice and manufacturing applications, the need for robust physical models of the process increases. Although the sophistication of both analytical and numerical modeling efforts has increased considerably [1–3], development of a 3-dimensional model for anisotropic media is ...

Matched-Filter Thermography

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
Conventional infrared thermography techniques, including pulsed and lock-in thermography, have shown great potential for non-destructive evaluation of broad spectrum of materials, spanning from metals to polymers to biological tissues.

Critical Coupling in Semi‐Trasparent Fano Resonators for Photothermal Converters

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An ultrathin metal–insulator multilayer architecture is engineered to exploit Fano‐resonant critical coupling, completely suppressing optical reflectance while achieving a balanced 50:50 trade‐off between absorbance and transmittance. Upon laser excitation at resonance, the metamaterial generates intense localized heat (ΔT≈550∘C$\Delta T {\approx }550^\

Pulsed Phase Thermography analysis on cylindrical geometry

open access: yesProceedings of the 2014 International Conference on Quantitative InfraRed Thermography, 2014
Goal of this work is the characterization of flaws in cylindrical geometry exploiting Pulse Phase Thermography (PPT), a Non-Destructive Testing method belonging to the Infrared Thermography category. The experiments are conducted on a hollow semicylindrical Plexiglas pipe section, with an outer and an inner diameter, respectively, of 150 mm and 130 mm.

Dynamic Fluorescence Modulation via Light‐Driven Competitive Protonation

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A two‐component molecular system demonstrates reversible, light‐driven fluorescence write–erase cycling and thermal imaging. Illumination of a merocyanine photoacid transfers a proton to a highly efficient fluorescent pyridinium dye, switching its emission color; thermal relaxation reverses the process in the dark.
