renewable energy sector, the solar photovoltaic (PV) industry has witnessed an exponential growth in recent years. As new solar technologies emerge, businesses are challenged to upgrade their solar farms and recycle their existing solar installations.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>This is usually done by gauging the life expectancy and equipment effectiveness of existing solar panels by checking for visual defects. However, most inspections are currently performed manually in the industry, which requires significant manpower, time and costs.

The elevated acoustic noise levels from aviation in flight has serious adverse impact on the health and well-being of people who live or work near airports. These health problems include, but are not limited to, hearing impairment, sleep disturbance, increased stress levels and the increased risk of hypertension and heart disease, which affect all age groups, especially children.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>A typical turbofan civilian aircraft during take-off can generate an overall sound pressure level (OASPL) of approximately 100 dB, measured about 100ft away from the runway centre line. Much of the noise emission from jet-engine-powered aircraft originate from the airframe and engines. The noise produced from jet exhaust is by far the major source of noise pollution especially for low bypass ratio engines.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>To reduce its impact on the environment and health, it is essential to understand the mechanism of noise generation, which can be challenging due to the complex physics of turbulent flow and its interaction with the acoustic field.
