ABSTRACT With the continuous promotion of Industry 4.0, the mass production of composites will be entering Industry 4.0 in the near future. With respect to quality control, nondestructive testing and evaluation (NDT&E) will become nondestructive testing and evaluation (NDE) 4.0 to seamlessly connect with Industry 4.0. Therefore, it is essential to develop innovative NDT&E methods and techniques for NDE 4.0. Although there are many facets of NDE 4.0, intelligent nondestructive testing and evaluation (iNDT&E) can be considered as a technical core of NDE 4.0. Therefore, we propose the development of iNDT&E techniques for composites. In this study, the development processes for NDE 1.0–4.0 are analyzed. The basic connotations of iNDT&E are discussed, and the basic framework and technical elements of iNDT&E are examined. As combined with ultrasonic iNDT&E for composites, the basic progress in iNDT&E techniques is reviewed from the perspectives of ultrasonic equipment, technology and methods, processes, and result evaluations and standards. Future development directions are presented for the iNDT&E techniques in NDE 4.0 for composites.

无损评估 4.0：复合材料的超声智能无损检测与评估

摘要 随着工业4.0的不断推进，复合材料的量产将在不久的将来进入工业4.0。在质量控制方面，无损检测与评估（NDT&E）将成为无损检测与评估（NDE）4.0，与工业4.0无缝对接。因此，必须为 NDE 4.0 开发创新的 NDT&E 方法和技术。虽然 NDE 4.0 有很多方面，但智能无损检测和评估（iNDT&E）可以被认为是 NDE 4.0 的技术核心。因此，我们建议为复合材料开发 iNDT&E 技术。在本研究中，分析了 NDE 1.0-4.0 的开发过程。讨论了iNDT&E的基本内涵，考察了iNDT&E的基本框架和技术要素。结合复合材料超声无损检测技术，从超声设备、技术与方法、工艺、结果评价和标准等方面回顾了iNDT&E技术的基本进展。介绍了复合材料无损检测 4.0 中 iNDT&E 技术的未来发展方向。
