Abstract
This paper describes an approach to planning and performing nondestructive testing (NDT) on a structure. It applies to NDT in general, but it is most relevant to inspections of large composite structures using thermographic NDT (TDNT) and other imaging NDT techniques in which defects are detected by pattern recognition or image analysis. Realistic problems are listed.
