CHARACTERIZATION OF DEFECTS IN METAL SHEETS VIA INFRARED THERMOGRAPHY

Harik, Marc Anthony 01 January 2010 (has links)
Defects in Aluminum, Stainless steel and galvanized steel sheets are studied in reflection mode infrared thermography. The effect of material properties, surface finish, heating intensity, heater emission spectra, pixel size and defect size are studied. Contrast is governed by heat quality, emissivity and defect geometry—which follows a logarithmic trend. The diameter detected via infrared thermography is found to be at least 30% larger than the measured diameter and sub-pixel defects can be detected. The use of gradient and Laplacian of temperature is introduced as a means of increasing defect contrast and mitigating heater variation.

Determination Of Relationship Between Weld Quality And Mechanical Strength In Different Steels

Soylu, Osman Alper 01 December 2004 (has links) (PDF)
This study has been conducted to establish a relation between welding quality and strength in various types of steel. This because specification of quality levels higher or lower than required leads to an increase in manufacturing cost. A procedure has been developed to achieve the above objective. In this procedure EN 25817, EN 288-1 and similar welding and nondestructive testing standards have been taken as a basis. Furthermore, effort has been exerted to ensure that welding is performed in a manner that reflects the actual conditions encountered in the industry to the extent possible. The same principles have been pursued in material selection, and the materials have been selected from the low-carbon manufacturing steel types (St37, St44 and St52) that are frequently used in steel construction, boiler manufacturing and similar manufacturing areas. The welded pieces manufactured in accordance with the established procedure have been tested through radiographic and ultrasonic examination methods to check whether they conformed to the welding quality standards set in the procedure. v Quality levels B and C of the EN 25817 standard have been selected for this study. The sizes of potential defects of quality levels have been defined within this standard. In this study, plates with weld seam that has no defect have been used for Quality level B and plates with weld seam having gas pores in sizes specified in the relevant standard have been used for Quality level C. After this stage, the pieces have been subjected to mechanical tests and their strength values have been identified. Thereby, the association between welding quality and strength has been established, enabling us to specify which strength values can be achieved in specific welding quality levels.

Classificação estrutural de peças de madeira de Pinus elliottii utilizando o módulo de elasticidade obtido pelo método de ondas longitudinais de tensão / Structural grading of Pinus elliottii timber using the modulus of elasticity obtained by longitudinal stress wave method

Andrade Junior, Jairo Ribas de 12 December 2016 (has links)
A classificação estrutural de peças de madeira possibilita melhor utilização do material, separando as peças de acordo com a sua resistência estimada. Nesse processo é feita a classificação visual, de grande importância no caso de madeiras do gênero pinus, e a classificação mecânica por meio de testes não destrutivos com objetivo de estimar o módulo de elasticidade. Com esse objetivo, além de ensaios de flexão estática, podem ser aplicados métodos dinâmicos baseados em medições das frequências naturais e densidade do material para a determinação do módulo de elasticidade da madeira. Nesse sentido o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência do aparelho portátil Brookhuis Micro Timber Grader (MTG) na estimativa do módulo de elasticidade por meio de ensaios não-destrutivos de vibração longitudinal. Para tanto, foi utilizado um lote de peças estruturais de madeira da espécie Pinus elliottii classificado visualmente. Os resultados obtidos por esse aparelho foram comparados com os resultados de módulo de elasticidade obtidos em ensaio de flexão estática. Tendo em vista a sua praticidade, é recomendável a utilização deste método para a classificação estrutural de peças serradas de madeira. A classificação visual agregada a classificação mecânica são essenciais para a utilização do Pinus em vigas laminadas coladas, construções industrializadas de madeira e do sistema construtivo em woodframe. / The structural grading of wood allows better use of the material, sorting the specimen according to their estimated strength. In this process the visual grading is a fundamental matter in use of the structural Pinus elliottii and also the mechanical grading obtained by non-destructive methods in order to estimate the modulus of elasticity. For this purpose, in addition to the static bending tests, dynamic methods based on measurement of the natural frequencies and density of the material to determining the modulus of elasticity (MOE) of timber can be applied. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of portable device Brookhuis Micro Timber Grader (MTG) in estimating the modulus of elasticity by non-destructive testing of longitudinal vibration. It was used structural pieces of wood species Pinus elliottii rated visually. The results obtained by this device was compared with the modulus of elasticity results obtained in static bending tests. Given its convenience and low cost, it is recommended to use this method for structural grading of timber sawn pieces. The visual and stress grading are essencial for the use of Pines in glued laminated timber, industrilization timber constructions and woodframe constructions.
