Use of the dynamic thermography (lock-in and pulse) for assessment of burns is discussed. Measurements of burns under medical treatment with different depth of affected tissue (from the first to the third-degree burns) are shown. The thermographic data are correlated with histopathological analysis of lesions. The results show that dynamic thermography might be advice as a simple, noninvasive a...

The contribution deals with state of the art non-destructive testing method – active infrared thermography. The method can be used for revealing of defects and inhomogenities inside the bodies, e.g. bubbles and cracks in materials, which can have crucial importance from the point of view of their physical-mechanical properties. Goal of the research is theoretical evaluation of the performance o...

High-temperature pressure pipelines are extensively used in petrochemical plant and power stations. Severe pits or wall loss defects can be internally produced after a certain period of time due to media corrosion and cavitation erosion. These defects finally lead to leakage of the pipes. In order to search for a good non-destructive method for these defects, a large pipe testing installation w...

conclusions there were significant distinctions in the skin temperature distribution during exercise according to the activity of the area under consideration during exercise, which may be important in the development of physiological models and heat flux analyses for different purposes. results during pre-exercise, all tsk reached a steady-state (p ≤ 0.05), which ensured adequate thermal stabi...

PURPOSE We evaluated the sensitivity of 3 noninvasive methods for detecting left and right varicoceles. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three noninvasive methods for the detection of varicocele in the left and right internal spermatic veins were evaluated in 214 infertile men, namely, physical examination, scrotal contact thermography and ultrasound Doppler. Venography was used as the reference diagnos...

In this work heat flux thermography algorithms are proposed to suppress false indications that appear when testing steel billets with inductive thermography. Not only temperature amplitudes are used for evaluation but also the time dependancy of the temperature profile, different types of cooling rates and signal shape parameters. These new algorithms were tested successfully in a rolling mill....
