A system and method for qualifying usability risk associated with subsurface defecs in a multilayer coating

摘要

A system for qualifying usability risk associated with subsurface defects (20) in a multilayer coating (10) includes a component (14) having a multilayer coating (10), an infrared detection device (102) for capturing infrared images (104) of the multilayered coating (10) and a processing unit (106) that is in electronic communication with the infrared detection device (102) where the processing unit (106) generates a subsurface defect map (116) of the multilayer coating (10) based on the infrared images (104). The system further includes a risk map of the component (14).
