| CIVA validation updates | ||
|
While CIVA validation tests are constantly being performed, a specific effort had been done by the CEA and EXTENDE teams in comparing a lot of simulation results obtained by CIVA UT with experimental data. These validation works are published on our website. Because CIVA models evolve, some CIVA results can be improved, and therefore, some of these validation tests have been recently updated. You can get more information about these updates in our blog article. |

A "Reliability in NDE" course has recently been taught in our office with trainees from different companies.

Such a long and rich experience in NDE for you! It might not be possible in a single interview, but could you give us an overview of your past experiences in the NDE community? Indeed, it now seems like a long career. It started in 1974 when I was looking for work after completing my degree at the University of Waterloo. One of the courses in my last year of study was radiochemistry (isotopes). Radiography sounded an interesting application of radioisotopes, so I found a job in a local NDT company and started as a radiographer's helper. [...] Read more |
