Description

Revolutionising Non-destructive Inspection with Nonlinear Laser Ultrasonics. This project aims to develop a new inspection technology for structures with hard-to-inspect conditions using fully non-contact nonlinear laser ultrasonics. This will overcome the limitations of existing non-destructive evaluation (NDE) and structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques. The project will create a new concept and generate new knowledge on NDE and SHM. The expected outcomes are significant improvements in the capability and applicability of NDE and SHM to cutting-edge technologies, such as real-time monitoring of constructing objects in additive manufacturing, and structures with extreme conditions in the Space, Energy, Oli and Gas industry. This provides significant cost savings in the integrity inspection of structures.. Scheme: Discovery Projects. Field: 4005 - Civil Engineering. Lead: Prof Ching Tai Ng
