Correction: Liu, B., et al. Quantitative Evaluation of Pulsed Thermography, Lock-In Thermography and Vibrothermography on Foreign Object Defect (FOD) in CFRP. Sensors 2016, 16, doi:10.3390/s16050743
- (1)
- The title of the article should be changed so that the word ‘Quantitative’ is replaced with ‘Experimental’
- (2)
- Section 3.3 should be removed and replaced with the following:
- (3)
- The performance of the Thermographic Signal Reconstruction (TSR) method in the experimental study was misrepresented due to the lack of contrast optimization, which was performed on other images in Figure 3. The images 3d and 3e in Figure 3 should be replaced with the contrast optimized results, below:
- (4)
- Contrast optimization improves the relative performance of TSR for foreign object defect (FOD) detection, and significantly affects the results of the comparative study. To reflect this, the following sentences on page 5 should be omitted:
- But PCT can provide the most inspection details and the best definition
- According to the comparison of the images acquired from different image processing methods, PCT is the best solution for this type of defect using pulsed thermography.
- (5)
- The conclusions section should be modified:
- (6)
- Table 4 should be removed and replaced with the updated table, below
- (7)
- In Sections 4, 6 and 7, all occurrences of the word ‘TSR’ should be replaced with ‘B-TSR’.
- (8)
- Section 6 (“Thermographic Probability of Detection”) should be removed from the paper;
- (9)
- Table 4 should be moved to the Conclusion section. The caption should read “Performance of Thermographic Methods”
- (10)
- The word “probable” should be eliminated from the following sentence in Section 4.4: The sentence should read as follows:“This may indicate the existence of Defect E” (page 5).
- (11)
- The second paragraph in Section 4.4 should be modified to read as follows:
