The Ultrasonic Polar Scan for Composite Characterization and Damage Assessment: Past, Present and Future

The Ultrasonic Polar Scan for Composite Characterization and Damage Assessment: Past, Present and Future

In the early 1980’s, the ultrasonic polar scan (UPS) technique was developed to assess the fiber direction of composites in a nondestructive way. In spite of the recognition by several researchers as being a sophisticated and promising methodology for nondestructive testing (NDT) and materials scien...
