With the rapid expansion in wind energy sector world wide, there is an increasing need to develop a technique that can be used to inspect wind turbine blades (WTB) on-site, so that the reliability and integrity of the structure and components can be maintained. However, most of the existing NDT techniques are difficult to use for WTB inspection on-site because of the complex working conditions and ...

Laser welding is a robust process for producing full penetration welds in steels. Welds in non-ferrous materials (such as Al and Ti), achieving acceptable weld quality is less straightforward. Of particular concern is porosity formation in the deep penetration. Achieving low levels of porosity in a reproducible way is currently preventing acceptance of laser welding in the aerospace and to some ex ...
