The First QIRT-ASIA Conferenceon Quantitative Infrared Thermography
6 - 10 July, 2015, Mahabalipuram
Who Should Attend
Introduction
In addition to the main technicalprogram, the conference will includeone-day short courses (Monday, July 6).It will include a general introduction tothermography in the morning andspecialized courses on variousapplication fields given in parallelsessions during the afternoon (predictivecondition management, evaluation ofcomposites, ...)material characterization
Striving to stimulate youngresearchers, the organizingcommittee will award the bestconference contributionpresented and authored only bystudents.
Striving to stimulate youngresearchers, the organizingcommittee will award the bestoral and poster papersauthored and presented byyoung researchers below theage of 35 years.

The first Quantitative InfraRed Thermography Asian Conference, (QIRT-Asia 2015) will takeplace during July 6-10, 2015, Radisson Blu Hotel, Mahabalipuram, (near Chennai) India.Since 1992, the Quantitative Infrared Thermography (QIRT) conference is a biannualinternational forum which brings together specialists from industry and academia, whoshare an active interest in the latest developments of science, experimental practices andinstrumentation, related to IR thermography. Previously QIRT conferences have been heldin Paris (1992), Sorrento (1994), Stuttgart (1996), Lodz (1998), Reims (2000), Dubrovnik(2002), Brussels (2004), Padova (2006), Krakow (2008), Québec City (2010), Naples (2012)and Bordeaux (2014).

About Infrared ThermographyInfrared Thermography (IRT) is an advanced Non Destructive Evaluation method, where thesurface temperature of the object is mapped by detecting the IR radiation emitted by them.IRT started as a qualitative tool in electrical and process industry for condition monitoring.Advances in sensors, electronics, instrumentation including signal and image processingsaw the transformation of this method to a quantitative one. Today IR imaging is one ofthose few NDE methods that has applications cutting across all industries, research andsociety, ranging from astronomy, military, medical, energy audit, surveillance, conditionmonitoring, materials characterization.
