Book Holographic Nondestructive Tests Performed on Composite Samples of Ceramic epoxy fiberglass Sandwich Structure

Download or read book Holographic Nondestructive Tests Performed on Composite Samples of Ceramic epoxy fiberglass Sandwich Structure written by Robert L. Kurtz and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a hologram storing more than one wave is illuminated with coherent light, the reconstructed wave fronts interfere with each other or with any other phase-related wave front derived from the illuminating source. This multiple wave front comparison is called holographic interferometry, and its application is called holographic nondestructive testing (HNDT). The theoretical aspects of HNDT techniques and the sensitivity of the holographic system to the geometrical placement of the optical components are briefly discussed. A unique HNDT system which is mobile and possesses variable sensitivity to stress amplitude is described, and experimental evidence of the application of this system to the testing of the hidden debonds in a ceramic-epoxy-fiberglass structure used for sample testing of the radome of the Pershing missile system is presented.

Book A Technique for Obtaining Improved Real time Holographic Interferometric Data Using Pulse Modulated Illumination

Download or read book A Technique for Obtaining Improved Real time Holographic Interferometric Data Using Pulse Modulated Illumination written by Frank D. Adams and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calculations and experiments were performed to show that the fringe patterns on a vibrating structure, as observed using real-time holographic interferometry, has a substantially increased contrast ratio if the laser illumination is amplitude modulated by a sequence of pulses which are synchronized with the vibration. The time and effort required to obtain interferometric data using this method is an order of magnitude less than that needed when using time-average holographic interferograms. Potential applications include experimental studies of fatigue damage, crack detection and propagation, flaw detection in composite and honeycomb structures as well as vibration analysis of structural members.

Book Impact Behaviour of Fibre reinforced Composite Materials and Structures

Download or read book Impact Behaviour of Fibre reinforced Composite Materials and Structures written by S.R. Reid and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2000-10-31 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the early, pioneering work on the properties of composites under impact is still conceptually relevant, yet the results of many such analyses are outdated. The accuracy of these results depend specifically on the materials used (fibre, resin), interface, and method of fabrication. Development of new materials, cost effective design, and analysis and prediction of structural behaviour have all established a need for timely, wide ranging research on impact behaviour. Impact Behaviour of Fibre-Reinforced Composite Materials and Structures brings together - for the first time - state-of-the-art research from the most recent works of leading, international experts. An important new study, this book extensively investigates impact response, damage tolerance, and failure of fibre-reinforced composite materials and structure, from a number of expert viewpoints. This book explores the nature of modern polymer composites based on glass, carbon, aramid, ceramic and polymer fibres in a polymer matrix, and details various ways of analysing the impact process. Impact Behaviour of Fibre-Reinforced Composite Materials and Structures will prove itself a valuable tool for research and development engineers, structural engineers, materials scientists, designers, and students and researchers of related disciplines.

Book Nondestructive Testing and Evaluation of Fiber Reinforced Composite Structures

Download or read book Nondestructive Testing and Evaluation of Fiber Reinforced Composite Structures written by Shuncong Zhong and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-04-01 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a detailed description of the most common nondestructive testing(NDT) techniques used for the testing and evaluation fiber-reinforced composite structures, during manufacturing and/or in service stages. In order to facilitate the understanding and the utility of the different NDT techniques presented, the book first provides some information regarding the defects and material degradation mechanisms observed in fiber-reinforced composite structures as well as their general description and most probable causes. It is written based on the extensive scientific research and engineering backgrounds of the authors in the NDT and structural health monitoring (SHM) of structural systems from various areas including electrical, mechanical, materials, civil and biomedical engineering. Pursuing a rigorous approach, the book establishes a fundamental framework for the NDT of fiber-reinforced composite structures, while emphasizing on the importance of technique’s spatial resolution, integrated systems analysis and the significance of the influence stemming from the applicability of the NDT and the physical parameters of the test structures in the selection and utilization of adequate NDT techniques. The book is intended for students who are interested in the NDT of fiber-reinforced composite structures, researchers investigating the applicability of different NDT techniques to the inspections of structural systems, and NDT researchers and engineers working on the optimization of NDT systems for specific applications involving the use of fiber-reinforced composite structures.
