Smart integration of numerical models and thermal inspection (SINT)

Combining finite element models with non-destructive testing has enormous potential for valorization. The objective of this project is to develop a reliable damage detection and localization tool by combining NDT thermography data with FE modeling, making use of system identification. As the amount of experimental data is very high and depending on the resolution of the IR camera, the goal is to use virtual modeling in assistance of the NDT tests in order to gain accuracy and time-efficiency.
