Description:
Composite armor containing advanced ceramic material tiles is an important part of advanced armored vehicle design. Evisive Scan microwave interference scanning method can image this complex, structured material with access from one surface only, without contact, through contacting and no-contacting dielectric layers. This is a desirable method for condition monitoring of ceramic armor at maintenance [...]

Description:
Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) fulfill advanced propulsion system requirements for high temperature, very high performance material. The manufacturing process for S-200 CMC requires repeated measurement of porosity. Evisive Scan non-contact measurement and real time presentation of porosity data permits much shorter production time than conventional alternative measurement methods. This is evaluated by the US Air [...]

Description:
Large tires used in mining operations are extremely expensive, and are subject to premature deterioration due to embedded rocks. Evisive equipment was used to detect embedded stones too deep to be visually detected from the outside of the tread. Once found the rocks are extracted to prevent further tire damage.
Summary:
One side access and non-contact inspection [...]

Description:
ILD performed a condition assessment for four Pratt Type 88 rubber cooling water expansion joints at Exelon Nuclear LaSalle Unit 2, a Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) in January 2009 during the refueling outage.  The scope of work included:

visual inspection
durometer testing
Evisive non-destructive scanning of each joint

Summary:

Visual Inspection – No irreconcilable surface defects or flaws.
Durometer Testing – [...]
