A method for nondestructive inspection of a component, the method includes determining a first pulse-echo scan from a first side of a component; determining a second pulse-echo scan from a second side of the component; determining a through-transmission scan based on the first pulse-echo scan, the second pulse-echo scan, and a model of the component, the model comprises a rigid internal structure of the component; and classifying the component based on comparing the through-transmission scan to a 'gold' model.

Nondestructive inspection using dual pulse-echo ultrasonics and method therefor

A method for nondestructive vibrothermography inspection of a component, the method includes generating ultrasonic excitations in a component over a range of frequencies; determining a thermal signature in the component from the excitations; registering a model with the thermal signature; determining damage based on the thermal signal and model; and classifying the component based on the determining.
