METHOD OF INSPECTING JOINT ASSEMBLIES

A joint assembly (218) is provided. The joint assembly (218) includes a first component (202) including a first bond surface (206) and a second component (204) including a second bond surface (208) coupled to the first bond surface (206) such that a bond line is defined therebetween. At least one of...

Zusammenfassung:A joint assembly (218) is provided. The joint assembly (218) includes a first component (202) including a first bond surface (206) and a second component (204) including a second bond surface (208) coupled to the first bond surface (206) such that a bond line is defined therebetween. At least one of the first and second components (202, 204) includes a plurality of contrast particles (222, 224) that diffuse across the bond line when a predetermined amount of heat and pressure are applied to the first and second components (202, 204).
