| Description | The space industry has developed many composite materials that have been designed to have high durability in proportion to their weights. Many of these materials have a likelihood for flaws that is higher than in traditional metals. There are also material coverings (such as paint) that develop flaws that may adversely affect the performance of the system in which they are used. Therefore, there is a need to monitor the soundness of composite structures. To meet this monitoring need, many nondestructive evaluation (NDE) systems have been developed. An NDE system is designed to detect material flaws and make flaw measurements without destroying the inspected item. Also, the detection operation is expected to be performed in a rapid manner in a field or production environment. |
