Ultrasonic NDE of Kevlar-epoxy filament wound spherical pressure vessels
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6747629
The nondestructive evaluation of Kevlar-epoxy filament wound spherical composite pressure vessels is performed through the use of a six axis rotatorially articulated robotic manipulator. Ultrasonic pulse-echo techniques are employed to form C-scan images based upon amplitude and attenuation data gathered by a 68000 based microcomputer system. The data are imaged in planar and three dimensional forms and are further enhanced and analyzed through image processing techniques specifically developed for the analysis of complex composite structures. 25 figs.
