Abstract

The attention of the present work is focused on the analysis of defects in carbon-epoxy laminates. Different specimens are manufactured by varying the laminate orientation code, the weave type (preimpregnated or nonimpregnated), and the kind of defect. In particular, defects such as inclusions of spurious materials, delamination, and localized lack or excess of resin are artificially created to simulate the most probable kinds of damage occurring in carbon-epoxy products during manufacturing and/or in service. Nondestructive tests are performed by means of lock-in thermography.
