| The EXTENDE Inc. team is growing | ||
|
As EXTENDE Inc. recently celebrated its 15th birthday, the team at our Newport News, Virginia, U.S.A. office also welcomed a new member! We are pleased to announce that Jimmy Sabin has just joined EXTENDE Inc. as an NDE Engineer. Jimmy graduated from Old Dominion University with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering. He brings with him 7 years of experience in project management and sensor manufacturing including piezoelectric sensors used in both industrial and medical ultrasound applications. We welcome his input and expertise, knowing it will provide us with a fresh perspective as we seek new and innovative ways to solve today's NDT challenges. |

| Updated CIVA Education videos | ||
|
Following the recent release of a new version of CIVA Education, our video tutorials have been updated and expanded with a new one on the GWT module. You can find them on our YouTube channel: These can help your students and trainees familiarize themselves with the software. One more reason to adopt CIVA Education to help you teach the "physics behind NDT" efficiently and affordably! | |
| New papers from EXTENDE and our partners | ||
|
We appreciate being able to share with you our latest news and products during many recent conferences around the world (APCNDT, DGZFP Jahrestagung, Journées COFREND, ECNDT, CINDE, ENDE, EWSHM). These conferences were also an opportunity for EXTENDE and our partners to share technical papers and presentations on NDE applications that benefited from simulation with CIVA software and TraiNDE training simulators! Here are some we would like to highlight:
Most of them are also accessible on the NDT.net platform. EXTENDE thanks their industry partners for the collaboration around these publications. |

| Interview of Joseph Moysan | ||
|
Today, we are joined by Joseph Moysan, lecturer-researcher at the IUT of Aix-Marseille (France), as he discusses his use of the tools distributed by EXTENDE for education and training in NDE/NDT. Could you describe your role as a lecturer-researcher at the IUT of Aix-Marseille and give us an overview of your research activities, particularly those related to NDE/NDT? As in every university, the roles of teaching and research staff lead to regular changes in supervisory responsibilities, both in research and teaching. Currently, I am specifically responsible for professional bachelor and master level aeronautical engineering programs within the Mechanical Engineering and Production department. I am also responsible for teaching NDT in these programs and contribute to this teaching in other programs as well. On the research side, I am part of the Waves and Imaging team at the LMA (UMR CNRS 7031), where the NDT team is substantial and studies all types of materials. [...] Read more |

| CIVA Tip: Troubleshooting CIVA Batch Manager: Using the Clear Cache command |
||
|
The Batch Manager is a particularly useful tool when you want to run calculations sequentially. However, you may encounter issues when using it, for instance if your CIVA configurations are corrupted, if the initial installation of the Batch Manager was not completed correctly or following a CIVA update. These issues can have a lasting impact on the Batch Manager and may sometimes render it unusable. In order to remedy that, you can clean the Batch Manager by launching the file "Clear_Cache.bat".
