C. Thomas Chiou is an Associate
Scientist in the Center for Nondestructive Evaluation at Iowa State
University. He received his M.S. (1986) and Ph.D. (1990) degrees in
Engineering Mechanics from Iowa State University, and holds a B. S.
(1981) in Aerospace Engineering from National Cheng Kung University,
Tainan, Taiwan. His research interests are in computer modeling,
signal and image processing, artificial intelligence with NDE
applications, which include the crack detection below boltholes in
aircraft skin and phased array simulation for anisotropic media.
Recently, he has advanced in applying both geometric and ultrasonic
models to the characterization of hard-alpha inclusions in titanium
alloys. His current focus is at the simulation of terahertz
inspection of the space shuttle foam insulation structures. Dr.
Chiou has co-authored over 30 technical publications in NDE, and is
a member of the American Society for Nondestructive Testing and the
Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi.
