Research on Defect Detection of Bare Film in Landfills Based on a Temperature Spectrum Model
Year: 2025

Abstract: Due to the construction damage of high-density polyethylene film (HDPE) during the early stages of landfill construction and missed or faulty welding, this paper proposes a method based on the synchronous characteristic temperature differences between defective and intact areas of HDPE film. An image feature-edge-picking algorithm was used to detect various defects. First, under the action of a continuous heat source, infrared images of different types of defects on the surface of HDPE films were collected, and we recorded the temperature of different areas on the film surface. We also analyzed the changes in the temperatures of the complete and defect areas over time and extracted the temperature characteristic curves. Second, the contour characteristics of hidden defects in the weld area were analyzed. The image with the most substantial temperature difference resolution was selected and preliminary noise reduction was performed. Further enhancement of the edges was carried out using the guided image-filtering (GIF) algorithm, which was improved by using the edge-aware weighting in weighted guided image filtering (WGIF) and the weighted aggregation mechanism in weighted aggregated guided image filtering (WAGIF). Finally, the Canny operator was used to detect the edges of the processed images to recognize the contour of the welding defect. The best pixel image was extracted, the pixel comparison relationship was used to quantitatively detect the defect size of the HDPE film and the error between the image defect size and the actual size was analyzed. The experimental results show that the model could identify the surface defects on HDPE film during construction and could obtain the approximate outline and size of the hidden defects in the welding area.
