Wind energy represents an interesting sector in the field of renewable energy in particular as regards to the use of innovative materials such as CFRP and GFRP materials. The thermographic technique can be a valuable tool in this application field because allows a non-contact inspection of large areas, as for example occurs for remotely controls of the blades of large wind turbines. The mechanical characterization tests of GFRP adhesive joints were preceded by lock-in thermography tests in order to detect bonding defects, or more generally, defects that might compromise the mechanical strength of joints

Abstract
Wind energy represents an interesting sector in the field of renewable energy in particular as regards to the use of innovative materials such as CFRP and GFRP materials. The thermographic technique can be a valuable tool in this application field because allows a non-contact inspection of large areas, as for example occurs for remotely controls of the blades of large wind turbines. The mechanical characterization tests of GFRP adhesive joints were preceded by lock-in thermography tests in order to detect bonding defects, or more generally, defects that might compromise the mechanical strength of jointsI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
