Detection and quantification of fibre waviness in composite laminates using ultrasonic arrays

The work presented in this thesis shows that progress has been made in the inspection of composite materials and a methodology to improve imaging and detection of subtle defects such as waviness has been established. In 2D modelling of the Point Spread Function (PSF) is used to assess the p81'f...
