TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated approach using near-infrared (NIR) reflectography, square pulse thermography (SPT), and holographic interferometry (HI) techniques for discovering old repairs and/or inclusions of foreign materials in a wooden structure was presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, an innovative hybrid thermographic (HIRT) approach is illustrated, which combines both the time component and the solar source to obtain quantitative information such as the defect depth, whereas quantitative results related to the sub-superficial discontinuities were obtained thanks to the use of advanced techniques.

TL;DR: In this paper, the state-of-the-art and evolution of optical non-destructive analytical techniques, including holographic interferometry, electronic speckle pattern interference (ESPI), and decorrelation, are described.

TL;DR: In this article, an integrated approach based on traditional and innovative (HI, PT and NIR) techniques was conducted on a primed support of poplar wood with a complex-shape surface containing areas of artificial defects at several depths due to the influence of the support on the various layers.

TL;DR: A new imaging tool, called Thermal Quasi-Reflectography (TQR), is proposed and demonstrated, based on the recording, by suitable procedures, of reflected infrared radiation in the MWIR band (3-5 μm).
