    Abstract:

    Sandia National Laboratories Airworthiness Assurance Nondestructive Inspection Validation Center (AANC) provides independent and quantitative evaluations of new and enhanced inspection technologies, to developers, users, and regulators of aircraft. In this chapter, we present the results from two recent thermography probability of detection (POD) experiments. The first POD study involves sonic infrared (IR) imaging for detecting fatigue cracks in Inconel® and titanium. The second POD study involves pulsed thermography using a low cost uncooled infrared camera for detecting flaws in composite honeycomb structure.
