Development and Validation of an Automated Non-destructive Evaluation (NDE) Approach for Testing Welded Joints in Plastic Pipes (TestPEP)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

Plastics pipes offer significant advantages over other materials such as cast iron, steel, copper and concrete, for the transportation of fluids such as natural gas, water, effluent and corrosive liquids. They do not corrode; have a longer predicted service life, leading to less frequent replacement; they are less expensive to install due to their light weight and flexibility; and have significant ...

Neural Net based defect detection system using LRU technology for aircraft structure Monitoring (Self-Scan)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

This project will develop an integrated system to monitor the condition of aircraft components, using integrated transducer arrays for improved long range ultrasonic testing (LRUT) optimised to maximise UT wave-defect interaction in order to boost sensitivity. The project will: •Improve the defect detection capabilities of guided waves by generating / selecting wavemodes on the basis of optimised ...

Development of New and Novel Quality Control System for the Inspection of Titanium Components in Safety Critical Applications in the Aerospace Industry (Qualiti)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Feb 28, 2011,

European SMEs in the field of none destructive testing do not have the technological capability to reliably test titanium materials, and as a result risk are losing competitiveness in this €600million global market. Titanium is important material in the manufacture of new components in many important industries, including aerospace. An automated phased array, ultrasonic NDT method supported wit ...
