Abstrakt: The objective of this work is to develop a general model for NDE inspection techniques, which will predict the probability of missing critical defects and misclassifying harmless defects. This paper presents a model of V-butt weld measurement of defects, specialized for ultrasonic testing (UT) inspections. The model is based on physical equations for the UT process, logic for how errors combine and triangular probability distributions for both the occurrence of errors and the resulting errors in sizing.
