    - Methods, equipment, records

  • Computer management integration
    - Scan plans, accept/reject, records

  • Code case reporting and database support
    - CC2235 and CC181

  • Modeling for validation

 

Demonstration sessions included for a variety of hardware and software.

 

Ed Ginzel and a team of highly experienced PA, TOFD and AUT specialists from Eclipse Scientific have assembled an innovative training program to educate and prepare the NDT community for a new decade of advancements in the NDT industry.

Introductions

Brief history

9:10-10:00

A look at NDT codes and what
they ask for

What aspects of these can use
computer programmes

Code types:
Regulatory Standards     (controlling the method)
Monitoring Standards    (e.g. equipment, personnel, records)
Procedures
Scan plans
Acceptance criteria
Record keeping
Validation (statistics, modelling)

10:00 - 10:15

Coffee Break

 

10:15-12:00 Examples of software
programmes and how they can
help meet the needs of code
compliance
Templates in word processors
How to secure a procedure document (demonstration)
Adding a Technique (work instructions with a scan plan)
Volume, angles, techniques, printout (TOFD, PA, Mono & AUT)
Show how to incorporate into a Procedure
12:00-13:00 Lunch Provided on site so we can keep to schedule
13:00-14:00 Technique Tools Tools to get quantitative values for techniques
e.g. Advanced focal law transfer of delays (AUT)
Software replacements for slide rules
14:00-14:15 Coffee Break  
14:15-16:30 Acceptance Criteria software ASME CC2235 and  CC181             Curves (a versus 2a)
DNV instructions (BS7910)
BS 7910 ECA development (Crack-wise from TWI)
Large projects reporting- Code stipulates what each report must have, fields in a pre-planned database provide both a record keeping aspect as will as a search mechanism
End of Day 1 Social discussion  

Day 2

Time

Topic

9:00-12:00 Modelling for validation Validation            Required for ENIQ and ASME Sec. XI (Sec V Art 14)
Tools to confirm suitability (Civa)              Tools to assess uncertainties and probabilities (ASME is shy on details whereas F101 is demanding to ensure high level of confidence is demonstrated)
12:00-13:00 Lunch  
13:00-14:00 Tour of Eclipse Tour and talk about tools and support equipment for development
14:00-15:00 Demonstration of procedure
development process
Two example applications for weld inspection solutions
15:00-16:00 Other applications Working to get qualification in place (novel applications that required support)
16:00 - Question and Answer Social General open dialog about seminar topics
