Abstract

The structure and the preservation state of artistic heritage and archaeological findings have been studied by the analysis of the heat diffusion process in the sample. The investigations have been performed by non-invasive time resolved infrared thermography(IRT). Thickness maps, buried defects detection, inhomogeneity and corrosion analysis, as well as the quality check of welding and reinforcements elements, have been performed on the studied samples.
