The use of X-ray computed tomography (CT), exploiting both synchrotron and laboratory
sources, has grown significantly over the last decade, driven primarily by improvements in …

In this work we explore the capabilities of Talbot-Lau grating interferometry (TLGI)
radiography for the inspection of porosity in structural specimens of cyanate ester carbon …

In the field of ultrasonic non-destructive testing, ultrasonic impulses are used to detect flaws
in components without causing damage. Based on performing experiments alone, it is …

Voids in polymer matrix composites are one of the most common manufacturing defects,
which may influence the mechanical properties and structural behavior of the final parts …

Combinations of X-ray Computed Tomography (XCT) scan times, from 30 s to 60 min, and
voxel sizes, from 6 to 50 µm, were investigated for their effect on the porosity measurements …

The main objective of this work was to find a new way to create reference samples for the
quantitative evaluation of porosity in carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) by means of X …

In this study, the forming behavior of fiber-metal laminates (FML) is investigated by a
combination of different (in-and ex-situ) measurement techniques. Using FML-samples …

For resin transfer molding in a woven fabric, this study developed a novel framework for
optimization by combining a multi-objective genetic algorithm and mold-filling simulation …

Adhesive bonding is increasingly used in numerous industrial branches (aeronautics,
space, etc.) for the many advantages this technique features. The quality of the adhesive …

Non-destructive testing (NDT) and three-dimensional materials characterisation of fibre
reinforced polymers using X-ray based methods can be carried out at different length scales …
