This project investigates the detection of structural damage in aerospace composite materials using ESPI and/or Shearography. ESPI and shearography are both laser based digital interferometric techniques used to non-destructively identify defects in small and large structures. Vibration excitation is proposed to be used as the excitation method for the above Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) techniques. The material may or may not contain any defects, in which case the flaws are to be artificially induced. 2015-07-14T08:48:46Z 2015-07-14T08:48:46Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/13432 eng application/pdf Department of Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
