NDE 4.0, CT & NDE4.0 with Dr. Nick Brierley

In this episode of the NDE 4.0 podcast, we speak with Dr. Nick Brierley about using digital CT systems to build digital twins and how these models can be used to optimize manufacturing processes. We also explore how digital twins can be used in various ways to advance the entire NDT ecosystem and why developing and following standards are so important to these efforts.

In this episode of the NDE 4.0 podcast, we revisit with Johannes Vrana and Ripi Singh, two pioneers of digital transformation for NDE. Johannes and Ripi share their thoughts on how far we've come over the last few years and help us change our mindset around how we think about NDE 4.0. With numerous papers, projects, books, and lots of other thought-leading content around NDE 4.0, Johannes and Ripi have their fingers on the pulse and great insights on how the industry will continue moving in the right direction!

John Lindberg EPRI - NDE4.0 Episode 15

In this episode, we speak with an expert innovator for the Energy sector (John Lindberg) , who has been assisting a variety of organizations adopt NDE 4.0 concepts and technologies over the last several years. Our conversation covers everything from measuring and communicating the value of NDE 4.0 investments to specific use cases from the Energy industry.

In this episode of our "5 Questions for an NDE 4.0 Expert", Ben Connors shares the latest advancements in CT scanning and we discuss the long-term benefits of using test results to make real-time manufacturing process improvements. This discussion gets to the heart of our top priorities in the NDT industry: removing defects in order to ensure safe and correct operation of industrial assets and infrastructure. We explore both the long-term benefits and the challenges to industry adoption. If you work in the field of manufacturing parts for industrial assets, this episode is a must-hear!

In this episode of the NDE 4.0 Podcast, we talk with Lennart Schulenburg, a visionary in the field of AI for NDT. As general manager of VisiConsult's X-ray systems and solutions, Lennart works with inspection companies to incorporate advanced X-ray systems, implement automated inspection tools, and integrate with quality management systems. In our conversation, Lennart offers insights into the value of AI today for inspection processes and a look at what the future holds.

In this episode of the NDE 4.0 Podcast, we chat with the leadership team at Ooga Technologies, the global NDT collaboration platform. In this wide-ranging discussion, Ajay Pasupuleti, founder and CEO, and Michael Turnbow, founder and former general manager of Tennessee Valley Authority's Testing and Services Group, offer up a look at how cloud-based software can transform how NDT companies operate.

In this episode of the NDE 4.0 Podcast, we have an exciting new panel format in which we chat with NDE 4.0 influencers and leaders and discuss the future and what an NDE 4.0 Ethics Code would look like. In this discussion, hear from three experts who are leading the way in NDE 4.0 innovation, education, and coaching. In addition to our regular host, Nasrin Azari, president of Floodlight Software and a member of the ASNT NDE 4.0 committee, we are joined by the following distinguished guests:

Ripi Singh, Chief Innovation and Strategy Coach at Inspiring Next

Tracie Clifford, Faculty Lead, Instructor, Quality Assurance/Quality Control and Nondestructive Testing Programs

Matt Litschewski, Project Manager and Level III Technician at Acuren

Tune in now to learn about the foundations and future of ethics in the NDE 4.0 paradigm.

In this episode of the NDE 4.0 Podcast, we interview Dr. Norbert Meyendorf, whom many consider the founding father of the NDE 4.0 movement. In fact, Dr. Meyendorf actually coined the term "NDE 4.0" back in 2016.  In this podcast episode, Dr. Meyendorf, formerly the department head and branch director at the Fraunhofer Institute for Nondestructive Testing in Germany for more than 20 years, reveals the origins of the NDE 4.0 movement, its evolution, and the benefits provided to NDT organizations in its current iteration.

Until his retirement in 2018, Meyendorf was a professor in the aerospace engineering program at Iowa State University and Deputy Director at the Center for Nondestructive Evaluation in Ames, Iowa. He has edited several books, and he's the author or co-author of numerous journal articles and is the editor in chief of the Journal of NDE published by Springer. Dr. Meyendorf continues to teach as adjunct faculty at Iowa State, the University of Dayton, and the University of Dresden in Germany.

In this episode of the NDE 4.0 Podcast, we interview Dave Seto, business development manager at UTEX Scientific Instruments, based in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Dave has presented and published on the topics of fermentation of unconventional biomass, distillation as a means of waste reduction, and most recently on inspection automation for NDT.

During his career with UTEX Scientific, Dave designed novel ultrasonic probes, engineered automated scanning systems, and has developed customized software for automating inspections in metals production, aerospace, and nuclear power generation industries. Dave has a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering from the University of Waterloo.

Dave's company, UTEX Scientific, helps industrial inspection and NDT companies automate their inspections with scanning systems, software, and high-performance ultrasonic instruments.

In this podcast episode, Dave discusses how companies can make better use of their NDE / NDT data. He also talks about how moving to NDE 4.0 technologies is more of a process and a direction rather than a single linear progression.
