Abstract

Visual inspection is one of the most common nondestructive evaluation techniques that is performed through vision. This chapter will summarize visual inspection principles for detecting impact damage in composite materials. Effective parameters and available standards for visual inspection of low-velocity impact damage are introduced, and the relevant challenges are discussed. Current developments in improving visual inspection, including the use of artificial intelligence algorithms, as well as smart coating layers for improved visibility of impact damage are reported. Recent case studies are included, and future research directions are discussed.
