Materials NDE by Non Linear Filtering Applying Heat Transfer Models

In active thermal Non Destructive Evaluation, properties of interest are obtained analysing time evolution of an informative parameter (e.g. excess temperature, absolute or relative temperature contrast, etc.). The fundamental problem to get rid of different kinds of noise is not deeply studied up to now. Popular filtering techniques, both in space and time domain, are discussed.
