Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Non-destructive Testing
  • Image Analysis

Background:

  • Radiographic testing of turbine blades often suffers from image redundancy, slowing down analysis.
  • Unpredictable free-form surfaces in turbine blades pose challenges for traditional segmentation methods.
  • Reducing testing redundancy is crucial for efficient industrial inspection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a new segmentation method for unpredictable free-form surfaces in turbine blades.
  • To reduce image redundancy in radiographic testing through spatial entropy calculation and microtopography feature extraction.
  • To improve the speed and accuracy of turbine blade defect analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Spatial entropy calculation applied to radiography images to determine an optimized image for segmentation.
  • Segmentation of radiographic images based on spatial entropy distribution and geometric features.
  • Extraction of microtopography features for self-adaptive segmentation of free-form surfaces.
  • Validation using a nickel-based alloy turbine blade and assessment with American Society for Testing and Materials image quality indicators.

Main Results:

  • Image redundancy in multiple exposure testing was reduced by over 30% during inline testing.
  • The dynamic range in each extracted region of the optimally processed image was significantly improved.
  • Image resolution was maintained, unaffected by the down-sampling effect of entropy calculation.
  • The method demonstrated capability for defect detection, validated by image quality indicators.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed spatial entropy-based segmentation method effectively reduces image redundancy in turbine blade radiographic testing.
  • This approach enhances the efficiency of defect detection and analysis for complex free-form surfaces.
  • The technique offers a self-adaptive and robust solution for industrial non-destructive testing applications.
