From page 67...
... NDE methods form families of techniques classified by either source-detection method or source/specimen interaction. Table 6-1 lists some of the primary NDE methods that have been used for coating inspection grouped primarily by detection method.
From page 68...
... THERMAL METHODS Thermal imaging methods use a source of energy to create a temperature field in a specimen and a detection method to monitor the temperature changes. The information obtained depends on the initial source distribution, the subsequent thermal diffusion, and the detection method used.
From page 69...
... As in the case of thermal imaging, the depth sampling provided by the skin depth, and especially its frequency dependence, allows buried regions of a specimen to be examined in a single-sided measurement. Eddycurrent methods can determine the electrical properties of individual layers in multilayer conducting materials and the 69 properties of conducting regions below a dielectric layer.
From page 70...
... The energy absorbed from an X-ray source of variable energy increases near the characteristic wavelength of specific elements. This increased heat flux into the sample changes the volume and COATINGS FOR HIGH-TEMPERATURE STRUCTURAL MATERIALS surface temperature of the sample.
From page 71...
... 1991. Temperature evolution of plasma sprayed niobium particles impacting on a substrate.
