In order to detect defects in the surfaces of dry fabric and composite prepreg, this new vision-based tactile sensor roller prototype, TacRoller, is a three-colour reflective membrane roller-shape ...

Optical 3D metrology enables fast, non-contact surface roughness measurement of defects and roughness for precise ...

Figure 1. Ultrasonic testing using pulse echo and through-transmission methods. Pulse echo (left and center) uses a transducer that sends and receives ultrasound energy, producing both A- and B-scan ...

Researchers from the Skoltech Petroleum Center presented new results that will improve the predictions of stress redistribution used in strength models of composite materials, which will result in ...

A research project undertaken by the Bristol Composites Institute (BCI) at the University of Bristol used laser profile sensors from Micro-Epsilon to detect defects formed during the composites ...

Defect states refer to electronic energy levels that arise from imperfections or irregularities in the crystal structure of materials, particularly in semiconductors and insulators. These ...
