TraiNDE UT is designed to help the trainers to improve their teaching. The video below shows how to display the gate triggering inside the component and how to use section view.

You can also send us an e-mail to obtain more information and plan a dedicated demonstration.

FEM calculation

In CIVA2020, an array of models is provided in order to reach the best compromise between accuracy and computation time. This now includes a 2D and 3D FEM model directly included in CIVA UT for crack-like defects modelling, with planar or complex shapes (surface breaking ones with planar or cylindrical back walls, or embedded defects). This is based on a hybrid method using the fast and efficient pencil models to simulate beam propagation connected with a FEM beam/defect calculation in box(es) around defect(s). You can deal with issues such as defect tip sharpness impact, defect sizes below the wavelength, or complex wave modes generated at the defect interaction such as creeping waves. Some random variability can also be introduced in the crack morphology to evaluate its impact on the detection sensitivity. A specific grid editor let’s the user define the defect geometry from which the FE mesh is generated.
