    摘要: A method of non-destructive testing of an article (20) is described. The article has a first surface (21). The article (20) comprises a set of passageways (200), including a first passageway (200A). Respective sets of flaws (2000) are associated with respective passageways of the set of passageways (200), including a first set of flaws (2000A), optionally including a first flaw (2000AA), associated with the first passageway (200A). The method comprises phased array ultrasonic scanning of the article (20) using a phased array probe communicatively coupled thereto through the first surface (21); and detecting the first flaw (2000AA), if included in the first set of flaws (2000A) associated with the first passageway (200A).

    摘要: A system comprising: a workbench (102) having a display (114); a body-wearable mobile device (128) (for example, a smartwatch worn by a user); and a controller (106) configured to: receive data (for example, data measured by the body-wearable mobile device (128)) from the body-wearable mobile device (128); using the received data, determine a task for a user (122) of the workbench (102); and control the display (114) based on the determined task. For example, the display (114) may be controlled to display instructions for performing the determined task, or an indication that the user (122) is not permitted to perform the determined task.
