Relationship between Inspection Time and Frequency Components of Input and Reflected Thermal Waves in Active Thermographic Non-Destructive Inspection

Experiments and numerical simulations for a carbon fiber reinforced plastic specimen were performed to investigate the relationship between the time required for detecting subsurface defects and the frequency components of the thermal waves propagating within the specimen. Experimental results showe...
