Abstract:Carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) has been widely used in industry. In order to detect and evaluate
impact damage defects within this material, a non-destructive testing and evaluation (NDT&E) method of
eddy current pulsed thermography (ECPT) is proposed. The idea of divergence characterisation of the
expansion (or contraction) rate of the object and fluid volume can be extended to the thermal pattern
characterisation of ECPT. This paper enables the extraction of this value of divergence at an appropriate
time period to yield several desirable properties unique to NDT&E problems.
