Abstract

Corrosion precursor pitting size evaluation is a critical issue in the maintenance of aircrafts. Estimation of pit overall dimensions and especially its depth directly affects the required effort and cost associated with repair and maintenance of critical aircraft structural components. Near-field microwave nondestructive techniques have been successfully used for the detection and size evaluation of corrosion under paint and other surface anomalies. In this paper a fuzzy logic model, in conjunction with a high resolution dielectric waveguide was successfully developed to estimate pit overall dimensions from a pit signal.
