Concrete is currently the most used construction material, mainly due to its mechanical strength, chemical stability, and low cost. This material is affected by wear processes caused by the environment, which lead to a reduction in the useful life of...

Detecting defects on aerospace surfaces is critical to ensure safety and maintain the integrity of aircraft structures. Traditional methods often need more precision and efficiency for effective defect detection. This paper proposes an innovative app...

Additive manufacturing of advanced materials has become widespread, encompassing a range of materials including thermoplastics, metals, and ceramics. For the ceramics, the complete production process typically involves indirect additive manufacturing...

Over the years, research in the field of cultural heritage preservation and document analysis has exponentially grown. In this study, we propose an advanced approach for non-destructive estimation of paper fibers using macro images. Expanding on stud...

Non-destructive testing (NDT) systems are essential tools and are widely used for assessing the condition and structural integrity of pavement structures without causing any damage. They are cost-effective, provide comprehensive data, and are time ef...

Archaeological pottery X-radiography is mainly used for two applications: fabric characterization and identification of forming techniques. Both applications require imaging of tempering materials and other additives. With digital X-radiography, it i...

In the field of thermal non-destructive testing and evaluation (TNDT&E), active thermography gained popularity due to its fast wide-area monitoring and remote inspection capability to assess materials without compromising their future usability....

The successful management of road pavement maintenance requires the existence of suitable monitoring procedures for assessing pavement condition. A powerful tool for this is the use of non-destructive testing technologies. Non-destructive testing (ND...

This study characterized the level of oxidative metabolism in skeletal muscle during whole-body activity as a percentage of the muscle’s maximum oxidative rate (mVO₂max) using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Ten healthy participants complete...
