- Paper presents novel approach where simulated defect responses are superposed onto experimental measurements from real components, enabling efficient generation of large populations of data for qualification of safety-critical inspections. This massively reduces cost as large population of components with defects is not needed. Paper presents modelling framework and protocol for superposition technique. Synthesised data created using superposition approach is shown to be in excellent agreement with results from samples containing real defects.Technique is used by BAE Systems who sponsored PhD of author Bloxham [contact: Dr. Tom Barber, BAE Systems Submarines] and contributed to £560k EPSRC/industry grant award [EP/N015924/1, EP/N015533/1].
