Abstract
Thermographic techniques are of growing importance for non-destructive test ing because they allow fast and contact-free imaging. This paper presents t he basic physics and various established techniques. Examples of applicatio ns are the detection of defects and delaminations, the measurement of layer thickness, and the characterisation of fatigue.
