[en] In the framework of mechanical tests and to answer the different requests for tests, the T.C.R (Transport Conditionnement et Retraitement) laboratory got test facilities. These installations allow to carry out tests of resistance to shocks, mainly at the safety level of components of nuclear power plants, mockups of transport casks for fuel elements and transport containers for radioactive materials. They include a tower and a catapult. This paper give a decription of the facilities and explain their operation way

[en] Development of Nondestructive Tester for industrial application to detect flaws in aluminum die-casted squirrel case rotor is reported in this paper. Electronic currents are supplied to the end-ring and Hall effect sensors are used to detect the variation of currents which flow in the bar of the rotor. Some signal processing techniques are introduced to classify the signals due to the defects in the bars

[en] There are many different mathematical models that can be used to evaluate ah inspection system's Probability of Detection (PoD). Each model has a unique feature, These features can make one model more appropriate than another model. There are more than 12 commonly used PoD models used in NDT and each model has its own unique mathematical form. This article introduces each model and compares them to reveal their unique features. PoD is typically rather heavily explained using mathematics, but understanding the mathematics to a very deep level is not required to generate a good PoD curve. Computers take care of the heavy math. Having an understanding of the differences between model types is essential for creating a PoD that actually represents the inspection situation. This is the main reason behind having a selection of models. (author)
