KG<\/span> is owner and operator of the windfarm, BARD Offshore 1 (BO1), approx. 100 km off the German North Sea Coast. This <span class=\"g-color2\">windfarm<\/span> is made up of 80 wind energy generators from the 5 megawatt class, which reaches a rated power capacity of 400 megawatts. <span class=\"g-color1\">NDT inspections<\/span> were performed and shall be performed on cross welded beams of the BARD1 Offshore wind park. These inspections are achieved with the <span class=\"g-color2\">Total Focusing Method<\/span> ultrasonic measurement (TFM) using a <span class=\"g-color1\">Gekko system <\/span>(developed by <span class=\"g-color3\">M2M<\/span> Company). Consequently, an amount of acquisition files representing approximately <span class=\"g-color2\">7 Km of measurements<\/span> must be analyzed in a very short time, which is quite challenging. In this framework, <span class=\"g-color2\">specific improvements<\/span> in the <span class=\"g-color1\">CIVA Analysis<\/span> software were performed in order to <span class=\"g-color2\">automate<\/span> this work as much as possible to classify the indications in weld seams and <span class=\"g-color2\">auto-generate a table of indications<\/span> presenting all the relevant information according to the inspection procedure. This article aims at presenting the specific developments that were achieved on <span class=\"g-color1\">CIVA UT Analysis<\/span> software and the results of the <span class=\"g-color2\">automatic analysis and weld indications classification<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>To read the <span class=\"g-color2\">full article<\/span>, you can<a class=\"lien\" href=\"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/la-simulation-cnd\/documentation\/publications-sur-civa-et-la-simulation-en-cnd\/\"> visit our article library here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The <span class=\"g-color1\">EXTENDE<\/span> team<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Want to know how CIVA UT Analysis software and specific Plug-In development can help you optimize and drastically reduce time for the analysis of a large amount of data, read this paper from Roman Fernandez, presented at ECNDT 2018 and dealing with automatic analysis and weld indications classification on TFM acquisitions Ocean Breeze Energy GmbH [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":395,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[378],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-396","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-civa-software"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=396"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5784,"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396\/revisions\/5784"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/395"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=396"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=396"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.extende.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
