popular construction method. In this research, InfraRed Thermography (IRT) was
investigated as a potential Non Destructive Testing (NDT) method for adhesively bonded
textile structures. It is found that the spatial homogeneity of the temperature distribution in the
bonded area correlates with the Peel Strength (PS) of that bond. A threshold value for the in-
homogeneity in the thermal distribution can be set to distinguish between a bad bond and a …
