Sumario: | Paint coated corrosion detection and evaluation is a big challenge for steel performance and structure health. Eddy current pulsed thermography (ECPT) technique is investigated because it can reflect the corrosion physical properties through paint coating by the infrared signal. This paper proposes skewness method, which presents the feature of temperature curve’s shape automatically, and compares it with principal component analysis (PCA), phase analysis, and kurtosis feature extraction methods for paint coated corrosion characterization and evaluation. The averaged skewness shows the best sensitivity for 0–6 months corrosion. The normalized second principal component (PC) presents good sensitivity and the best measurement scale for corroded time. Furthermore, the temperature curve analysis proves that the electrical conductivity dominates the induced heating and heat distribution. The corrosion height is utilized to explain why ECPT technique is valid within 10 months corroded time. ECPT technique is proved as a smart sensor system for paint coated corrosion detection and characterization. |
