IR technology and conservation of monuments: experimental application on architectural surfaces

2011

The essay introduces the result of thermographic surveys on some Sicilian monuments. The diagnostic research works cover a period between 2002 and 2009, and demonstrate that the investigation method evolved in order to improve the graphic systems of editing the diagnosis, especially to integrate it with the conservation project.

Geophysical surveys for the restoration of Branciforte Palace in Palermo

2019

A multi-methodological and non-invasive geophysical study has been carried out in order to support the restoration project of the historic Branciforte Palace in Palermo. Ground Penetrating Radar profiles and an Electrical Resistivity Tomography ERT, carried out on the floor of the stable of the Palace, allowed to evaluate in detail the state of consolidation of the subsoil, in correspondence of a double row of marble columns, some of which were affected by differential subsidence. These columns have been investigated by means of Ultrasonic Tomography to verify their state of degradation. Moreover Infrared Thermography images of the internal and external walls and of the vaults highlighted d…

Priming with a combination of proangiogenic growth factors improves wound healing in normoglycemic mice

2011

Growth factors and/or angiogenic factors are supposed to improve wound healing. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effects of subcutaneous pretreatment with combinatory proangiogenic factors on wound closure, mechan - ical properties, vessel density and morphology. Twenty-eight Balb/c mice were divided equally into two groups. A mixture of VEGF (35.0 µg), bFGF (2.5 µg) and P dGF (3.5 µg) was administered subcutaneously 3, 5 and 7 days to 14 mice before full thickness skin punch biopsy wounding, whereas 14 control animals received three injections of 0.2 ml saline solution. Wound sizes were assessed daily and the repaired tissues were harvested 7 days after complete wound closure. Comp…

Thermographic imaging tool for children fracture detection

2016

The feasibility of thermographic imaging to diagnose pediatric fractures has been studied in the last years. The advantages lie in being a cost-effective, non-harmful, non-contact and non-invasive technique, since ionizing radiations are not used to get the image. Once the pictures of the affected limb are taken, the processing becomes necessary. In order to reduce the waiting time, a software tool has been developed to provide a diagnosis shortly after taking the image. Sin financiación No data (2016) UEV

Flying Laser Spot Thermography technique for the NDE of Fibre Metal Laminates disbonds

2017

Abstract The present work investigates the features of an active Infrared-NDT Thermography technique derived from a Flying Laser Spot set-up for the analysis of interlaminar disbonds in layered structures in general and Fibre Metal Laminates in particular. The presented technique uses a laser-spot heat source, which moves at a constant speed, raster scanning the object surface. Interlaminar defects parallel to the surfaces act as barriers towards through-the-thickness heat diffusion. This produces some modifications over the surface thermal field which are well identified in the Standard Deviation calculated over a Reference Area following the heat source. The mechanisms leading to such def…

Détection d'endommagement dans les composites à l'aide des micro-ondes. Comparaison avec la thermographie infrarouge

2011

International audience; On compare dans cette étude deux méthodes de détection d'endommagement dans les composites : une basée sur la technologie des structures propagatives électromagnétiques dans la gamme des micro-ondes et l'autre basée sur la mesure de champs thermiques dans la gamme des infrarouges. Toutes deux sont appliquées à la détection des ruptures de fibres et du délaminage dans des composites fibres/résine de type verre/époxy et carbone/époxy.

The infrared thermography control of the laser welding of amourphous polymers

2008

International audience; In laser welding technique, a real-time control of temperature distribution inside the irradiated materials is essential when attempting to optimize the process. For all laser welding methods that operate by the transmission principle, the difficulty of recording the developed temperature at the interface derives from the fact that materials to be welded are in contact throughout the entire process. In the present study, in order to overcome this issue, a contact-free method such the infrared thermography is used for surface temperature measurement. Corroborating this data with a numerical simulation of the temperature field evolution inside the components, an assess…
