Description

Non-Destructive Testing of Impact Damage in Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites: Fundamentals and Applications provides detailed knowledge on the fundamentals and applications of frequently used NDT techniques used to assess impact damage in composite structures.

The book starts with a detailed introduction to impact damage in composite structures.

Then, based on the nature, capabilities, and limitations of different NDT techniques, the book is divided into six different parts, including vision-based, acoustic-based, radiation-based, laser-based, and electric-based methods, fiber optics are also covered in detail. Each section also includes subsections discussing the different techniques used in each category.

The book is complemented at the end with a section dedicated to future trends in non-destructive evaluation of impact damage in composite materials.

A useful reference for both academic and industrial researchers, the book covers the fundamentals, practical tips, and applications, as well as current research trends and future possibilities for each technique.
