Real-Time Nondestructive Thermal Imaging Methods for Analysis of Properties, Structure and Materials Conditions of Art Objects

摘要

The active thermographic approach allows for both qualitative and quantitative kinds of evaluation. Among the main kinds of active thermography are vibrational thermography, induction thermography, pulsed thermography, lock-in thermography, and pulse phase thermography and their derivatives and modifications. The non-contactiveness of such methods makes them very attractive for the purposes of nondestructive studies, in particular, for art objects. This presentation with method descriptions will provide a few examples from art study.
