- The article is highly novel in enabling adhesion failure monitoring via development of novel CNT embedded polymer adhesives. It shows that a real-time monitoring technique is possible without compromising structural integrity; with that it is expected that I will have a large impact on future non-destructive inspection technology for aircraft industry and production monitoring. The methodology is currently under evaluation of Lufthansa Technics to be implemented in test probes for their identification potential of zero-thickness defects in joints, one of the most critical regions in structural body integrity with highest risk of failure
