Abstract

Examples of the present subject matter provide techniques for calculating amplitude fidelity (AF) for a variety of grid resolutions using a single TFM image of a specified flaw. Thus, the grid resolution may be set so that it yields a desired AF using a calculation process without performing a blind iterative process. Moreover, examples of the present subject matter may measure AF in more than one axis, improving accuracy.
