ANALYTICAL DIGITAL TWIN FOR NONDESTRUCTIVE INSPECTION OF A VEHICLE

A system for non-destructive testing (NDT) a surface of a vehicle includes a track that is securable to the surface, and a sensor that is movable along the track to perform a scan of a region of the surface. The system also includes a computer to generate a baseline image of the surface from the sca...

Zusammenfassung:	A system for non-destructive testing (NDT) a surface of a vehicle includes a track that is securable to the surface, and a sensor that is movable along the track to perform a scan of a region of the surface. The system also includes a computer to generate a baseline image of the surface from the scan, and define a map of the surface from a computer model of the surface. The baseline image includes a matrix of baseline data points, and the map includes a matrix of locations on the surface. The computer correlates the baseline image and the map to produce a mapped baseline image including the matrix of baseline data points registered to the locations on the surface. The mapped baseline image is formatted for NDT of the surface, and may thereby serve as an analytical digital twin for the NDT.
