CIVA Education, a streamlined version of the NDT simulation software CIVA, is the ultimate tool to help you teach the “physics behind NDT” to your students and trainees efficiently, interactively, and at a low cost.
Interpreting the raw results from NDT systems can be challenging to interpret due to the numerous input parameters and the complex physical phenomena involved in an inspection.
Additionally, the time available to train students and inspectors on the physics of NDT is often limited due to manufacturing demands or lack of various test pieces which cause the focus to be primarily on practical skills such as manipulating the probe, setting the system, etc. This can cause a gap in the versatility of an inspector’s working knowledge of physics leading to further manufacturing delay caused by false alarms on new geometries or retraining for each specific manufactured component.
The simple, realistic, and interactive interface of CIVA Education addresses these challenges by highlighting the main phenomena and making typical NDT results easier to understand.
It provides a wealth of comprehensive images and analysis curves, which facilitates a more efficient understanding of results compared to individual signals.
With quick computations, users can easily simulate various inspection configurations and understand the importance and impact of the main input parameters including component geometry and dimensions, material properties, probe/source types and settings, and defect locations and dimensions just to name a few.
