Heida, J.H. (author)This report describes the concept of reliability of nondestructive inspection (NDI) and reviews the different aspects involved. First, the probability of detection (POD) of flaws in flawed specimens is discussed. To provide a measure of confidence in an estimated POD, lower botind values of this probability at a given confidence level are...report 1984

de Graaf, E.A.B. (author), de Rijk, P. (author)The present report describes how fatigue cracks were produced in 102 specimens. After cracking these specimens were inspected non-destructively by means of eddy currents, ultrasonics. X-rays and penetrants, and the indications were recorded. Successively the specimens were exposed to corrosion whereafter the inspections were repeated. Upon...report 1978
