Integrity assessment of metallic structures requires inspection tools capable of detecting and
evaluating cracks reliably. To this end, many microwave and millimeter-wave nondestructive …

The use of steel has grown rapidly over the past decades. However, corrosion under coating
detection still presents challenges for nondestructive testing (NDT) techniques. One of such …

Towards the automatic defect detection from images, this research develops a semi-
supervised generative adversarial network (SSGAN) with two sub-networks for more precise …

This study investigated the enhancement of shock attenuation in silicone rubber (SR) matrix
composites through the incorporation of shear thickening fluid (STF) microdroplets. A series …

The pseudo defects are difficult to distinguish in Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT)
thick-walled weldments. In this work, a multimodal feature fusion model is proposed to …

Water immersion ultrasonic testing technology is widely used in non-destructive testing of
large ring forgings, but near-surface defects are difficult to identify in near-surface blind …

Inspection of thick and low-density multilayer composite structures is of paramount
importance. X-ray computed tomography (CT) and phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) …

Corrosion under insulations is described as localized corrosion that forms because of
moisture penetration through the insulation materials or due to contaminants' presence …

Antennas embedded in composites are key components in communication, radar, and
sensing systems aboard aircrafts. The manufacturing complexities and in-service loading …

Owing to their inherent advantages, non-metallic structures such as glass reinforced epoxy
(GRE) pipes and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes are rapidly replacing their steel …
