Abstract:Microwave open-ended waveguide scanning has been proved to be a promising NDT technique for imaging of woven carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) with impact damages. However, it uses a conventional C-scan technique, which is excessively time-consuming and therefore it is not practical for defect detection in a large area. Moreover, without proper feature extraction, the appearance of woven texture within the impact damage area opposes to the localization of the impact. This work proposes a novel framework f… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
