Abstract
The presence of porosity in a wide range of materials, whether ceramics, steel or fiber reinforced composites, has a dramatic effect on the strength and mechanical properties of that material. Therefore, the presence of any porosity in a composite laminate during the manufacture of aerospace components is a basis for component rejection.
