Reliability of nondestructive inspection

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...

The implementation and evaluation of a Kalman filter in MIAS

This report describes least squares estimation (LSE) and Kalman filtering in integrated navigation. The Kalman filter and its underlying principles are treated. The implementation of a Kalman filter in MIAS is investigated, and two different Kalman filters are developed. The problems that occur in a hybrid environment as the asynchronicity of...
