About IBSim-4i

Image-based meshing is the process by which 3D images (e.g. X-ray CT or laser scanning) are converted into ultra-high resolution simulations. 3D imaging is increasingly being used in the industrial sector for inspection, non-destructive testing / evaluation (NDT/NDE) and metrology but image-based simulation is still an underutilised technique. IBSim-4i is a 4-day programme consisting of a 2-day training course followed by a 2-day users' forum. Our aim is that the activities of IBSim-4i will facilitate a wider adoption of image-based simulation and provide a platform to discuss the cutting-edge developments in the field.

About gVRX

gVXR is an open-source framework that relies on the Beer–Lambert law to simulate X-ray images in realtime on the graphics processor unit (GPU). Software developers and scientists can use gVXR with a wide range of programming languages, including C, C++, Python, R, Ruby, Tcl, C#, Java, and GNU Octave. Its accuracy has been benchmarked with state-of-the-art Monte Carlo simulations and clinically realistic phantoms. It has been used in a wide range of applications in different scientific fields (see https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nimb.2025.165804 for a recent review).
