The Use of Multispectral Infrared Thermography in Re-entry Vehicles
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the design of a second generation infrared thermography system for use in a re-entry vehicle. Due to the large number of contaminants such as hydrazine and partial oxidation of the surfaces the simultaneous observation of temperature and emissivity must be performed. To this end a multispectral concept was validated in laboratory tests and implemented in the design.

متن کاملMultispectral Applications of Infrared Thermography in the Diagnosis and Protection of Built Cultural Heritage
Infrared thermography (IRT) is a powerful non contact imaging technique, appropriate for the protection of cultural heritage. The National Technical University of Athens research team (scientist responsible: A. Moropoulou), started to use this technique in the early 1990s, in all stages of a conservation project, from decay diagnosis to assessment of conservation interventions and monitoring. T...
متن کاملIR Reflectography and Active Thermography on Artworks: The Added Value of the 1.5–3 m Band
Infrared Radiation (IR) artwork inspection is typically performed through active thermography and reflectography with different setups and cameras. While Infrared Radiation Reflectography (IRR) is an established technique in the museum field, exploiting mainly the IR-A (0.7–1.4 μm) band to probe for hidden layers and modifications within the paint stratigraphy system, active thermography operat...
متن کاملThe Role of Infrared Thermography in Nondestructive testing of Civil Engineering Structures
In Civil Engineering, the application of infrared thermography is not limited to passive investigations of the quality of thermal insulation of building envelopes. Basic principles of the two main techniques of active infrared thermography, which are pulse thermography (PT) and Lock-in thermography (LT), are briefly recalled. In this paper, the use of passive infrared thermography technique for...
متن کاملCombining of Magnitude and Direction of Change Indices to Unsupervised Change Detection in Multitemporal Multispectral Remote Sensing Images
In remote sensing, image-based change detection techniques, analyze two images acquired over the same area at different times t1 and t2 to identify the changes occurred on the Earth's surface. Change detection approaches are mainly categorized as supervised and unsupervised. Generating the change index is a key step for change detection in multi-temporal remote sensing images. Unsupervised chan...
