Ultrasonic modelling and simulation are widely used in inspection qualification by industrial non-destructive test. Due to limitation of inspection conditions and radiation environment inside the nuclear power plant, it is useful to study the application of ultrasonic simulation technology to in-service inspection in nuclear power plant. Simulation can be used to demonstrate the inspection capa...

Semiconductor wafer post-sawing requires full inspection to assure defect-free outgoing dies. A defect problem is usually identified through visual judgment by the aid of a scanning electron microscope. By this means, potential misjudgment may be introduced into the inspection process due to human fatigue. In addition, the full inspection process can incur significant personnel costs. This rese...

The progression of industry, toward mass personalisation, initiates added complexities to the quality control and part inspection processes. Mass produced custom parts require varying, and sometimes unique inspection routines, with only certain features of a part requiring inspection. Inspection of these parts must occur at a higher frequency than batched production. This leads to an increase i...
