Vallen VisualTR™
The Waveform Analysis Acceleration Tool

Modern AE equipment captures waveforms at high speed and with hight resolution! But how long does it take to get the meaningful information from the waveforms? A tool for efficient AE waveform analysis was urgently needed.

It’s available now : VisualTR™.

TR stands for "transient data" which means full waveforms. VisualTR offers TR-Diagrams, TR-Pages and TR-Windows. The TR-Diagram shows one waveform in time and/or frequency domain. Several diagrams can be grouped into a TR-Page. Several pages can be grouped into a TR-Window. Several TR-Windows can be simultaneously active.

This hierarchy lets the user conveniently compare waveforms of, e.g.:

  • different hits of the same event
  • first-hits of different events
  • hits of different tests (stored on different files)
  • different kind of displays of the same hit

Waveforms (left) with FFT (right): The frames in the waveforms show the area from which the FFT is calculated. Calculating FFTs from different parts of the signal can cause remarkable differences between the frequency spectra. The lower two FFTs differ because different windowing functions - middle: Rectangle, bottom: Hanning - are used.

Speed up your analysis!

Additional tools included in VisualTR™:

TR-Combi
eases the selection of learning data from multiple input files to one output file per class for the efficient building of a data base for the training of a classifier in VisualClass™.

TR-Copy
copies the waveforms from one input file to one output file per class according to a list (CLASS vs TRAI) that can be generated e.g. automatically by the AE-multi-plot program or manually by the user. Helps to establish a learning data base for the training of a classifier in VisualClass™.

TR-Indexer
Re-numbers the TR indices in a TR-file before combining TR data of different input files. Helps to keep track of which waveforms belong belong to which AE test.

TR-Feature Extractor
extracts features from waveforms, (e.g. spectrum center of gravity) for listing, plotting or filtering in VisualAE™.

TR-Unifier
Working with VisualClass™ requires that all TR-files within the same project have been recorded with the same sample rate and and page length. The TR-Unifier allows one to modify TR-files acquired with different sample rates to make them compatible with each other.

TR-Filter
Applies user definable frequency filter on waveform data files to compensate hardware filters.

VisualTR™ Highlights:

  • highly developed, full 32bit software for waveform analysis
  • ability to organize your data acquired by AMSY-5, AMSY4, or AMS3 using windows, pages and diagrams for comparison and presentation
  • Designed for online-analysis without affecting the data-acquisition
  • intuitive graphic interface and full compatibility with all Windows software, extensive online-help
  • powerful printing and clipboard functions
  • digital frequency filtering
  • selectable FFT window functions
  • and many more
