First day:
The first day will focus on new scientific insights to make the methods for the measurement of reliability and
validation more efficient like:
- Design of Experiments
- Multi Parameter POD (extended a)
- Data Field POD (extended â)
- Receiver Operating Characteristics for specified conditions
- Minimum effort approaches
- Modelling MAPOD
- Systematic Psychological Approach to Human Factor
Second Day
Specific demands and solutions for specific industrial applications
- Aerospace and other Transportation
- Automotive
- Nuclear Power: Performance Demonstration/ENIQ
- Chemical
- Certification in NDE societies
- Characterization of the performance of structural health monitoring systems
Third Day
Integrating NDE results in overall Risk Analysis and Life Time Conceptions
Workshop Conclusions
Each day specific break-out-sessions are foreseen which will be summarized at the last day in the workshop conclusions.
- The overall question to be answered might be: What is influencing the performance of NDE and how can we measure and optimize what we want to know with minimum effort?
- Paradigm Shift: In the past the POD and ROC-Methods were applied for a final judgement of the NDE-systems. Now, with the experience of ENIQ and other complex industrial application scenarios the multi parameter POD shall be applied as an optimization tool where a certain parameter setting is assigned to a certain reliability.
- The human factor influences need to be treated systematically with the tools of psychology not only for the individual inspectors but also for the organizational context and environmental factor.
