T1 - Determination of reliability in demining and NDT T2 - MATEST 2004 N2 - The detection of defects in aircraft components or parts of a power plant or mines in the ground is connected with the task to distinguish between signals caused be the item searched for and noisy signals from other sources. The reliability of the system is the better the better the system is in detecting the wanted signal and avoiding false alarms caused by noise. It is usual to measure the reliability of diagnostic systems in terms of ROC-curves (Re-ceiver Operating Characteristics) and POD-curves (Probability of Detec-tion). The ROC curves describe the POD versus Probability of False Alarm with growing system sensitivity along the curve. POD curves describe the Probability of Detection for a fixed sensitivity for a variation of item sizes or depths. Reliability of the whole system is always a composition of the physics and technique, application influences and the human factors. For the scien-tific understanding and possibilities of improvement, decomposition accord-ing to a modular model is helpful. The authors present their experiences with the reliability evaluation of metal detectors for humanitarian demining and an NDT system of mechanized ultrasonic phased array testing of copper welds. The special concern in demining is the influence of soil types, detec-tors and the experiences of human beings.

T1 - Progress in evaluating the reliability of NDE systems - Paradigm shift T2 - 4th European-American workshop on reliability of NDE / DGZfP-Proceedings N2 - The paper will give an overview of new methodology for evaluating the reliability of NDE systems accurately, reliably and efficiently in accordance with the specific requirements of industrial application. After a review of the substantive issues from the previous workshops, the go forward guidance from these interactions is considered. At the beginning of the reliability analysis, the actual safety demands have to be defined in order to fit the investigation to the level of risk when the component would fail. Next, all the essential influencing parameters need to be documented and transferred to an appropriate design of experiments (DOE) to determine the reliability in terms of a qualitative assessment for lower risk or in terms of a quantitative probability of detection (POD) or ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristics) curves for higher safety demands. A new paradigm is offered to consider the POD or reliability of the system as a function of the configuration of input variables and use it for optimisation rather than for a final judgement. An advantage for the end user is also to sample all single PODs to an integral 'Volume POD' of a part. Among the influencing parameters, the human factor is the most important one. A systematic psychological approach shall help to find out where the bottlenecks are but most importantly to provide best possible working conditions for the human inspectors.

T1 - Investigating human factors in manual ultrasonic testing: Testing the human factor model T2 - 4th European-American workshop on reliability of NDE / DGZfP-Proceedings N2 - The human factors approach relies on understanding the properties of human capability and limitations under various conditions and the application of that knowledge in designing and developing safe systems. Following the principles of MTO (Man Technology Organization) approach, emphasis should be given to the way people interact with technical as well as organizational systems. A model describing human factor influences in relation to the performance shaping factors and their effect on the manual ultrasonic inspection performance had been built and a part of it empirically tested. The experimental task involved repeated inspection of 18 flaws according to the standard procedure under no, middle and high time pressure. Stress coping strategies, mental workload of the task, stress reaction and organizational factors have been measured. The results have shown that time pressure, mental workload and experience influence the quality of the inspection performance. Organizational factors and their influence on the inspection results were rated as important by the operators. However, further research is necessary into the effects of stress.
