T1 - 3D analysis of micro-deformation in VHCF-loaded nodular cast iron by µCT N2 - The impact of very high cycle fatigue (VHCF) load conditions on the microstructure of specimens consisting of nodular cast iron is analyzed by means of micro-computed tomography (µCT) utilizing both monochromatic synchrotron radiation and polychromatic X-ray tube radiation. Using 3D µCT, the microstructure in the region of the smallest cross-sections of shouldered round specimens is imaged in different stages of the VHCF loading. By digital image correlation (DIC) of these tomograms strain fields are analyzed three-dimensionally. Strain levels in the range of a few percent were detected. It is proven that a localization of strain allows to predict the site of the crack which precedes and induces the macroscopic failure of the specimens.

Therefore, precise measurements are of growing importance to ensure their quality. This contribution describes the measurement of gears of a micro planetary gear set with a tactile probe, a tactile-optical probe, an optical sensor, and computed tomography (CT). For the tactile measurements, a high precision piezoresistive microprobe was used. A so-called fiber probe was applied for tactile-optical measurements. This probe applies image processing to determine the position of the tactile probing element. For all tactile and tactile-optical measurements, single point probing was used. The optical measurements were carried out with an imaging sensor based on focus variation. Due to limited accessibility, on some gears not all regions could be measured by the optical sensor and the tactile-optical probe. In contrast to this, with CT the whole part could be measured with high point density. We used a micro-CT system and carried out measurements with Synchrotron-CT. All the sensors used deliver measurement data in Cartesian coordinates. It is a challenge to transfer these data into coordinates in which gear parameters are defined. For this, special attention must be paid to the determination of the gear axis and to the orientation of the teeth. The applied procedures are detailed for different micro gears. The comparison between data of different measurements was carried out successfully. The deviations between the CT data and the tactile or tactile-optical data lie in the range of only a few micrometers.

A1 - Zobel, Valentin T1 - Comparison of crack detection methods for analyzing damage processes in concrete with computed tomography N2 - Analyzing damages at concrete structures due to physical, chemical, and mechanical exposures need the application of innovative non-destructive testing methods that are able to trace spatial changes of microstructures. Here, the utility of three different crack detection methods for the analysis of computed tomograms of various cementitious building materials is evaluated. Due to the lack of reference samples and standardized image quality evaluation procedures, the results are compared with manually segmented reference data sets. A specific question is how automatic crack detection can be used for the quantitative characterization of damage processes, such as crack length and volume. The crack detection methods have been integrated into a scientific visualization system that allows displaying the tomography images as well as presenting the results.

T1 - Application of an industrial CT reference standard for cast freeform shaped workpieces N2 - Industrial computed tomography (CT) today is an important method to analyze defects and to measure the geometry of technical products. The measurement capability of industrial CT often depends on the knowledge of the measurement errors being present. Only with this knowledge, effective corrections are possible by manufacturers, or adapted measurement procedures become possible for the customers. Thus, there is the strong need to have adequate reference standards both for the assessment of general dependencies and for the measurement of task-specific effects. Especially the latter are difficult to assess. This paper shows the application of a versatile dismountable workpiece-near reference body for the use with CT. The reference standard was made from a miniaturized cast aluminium (one-)cylinder head. It can be dismounted into four segments, each featuring reference geometries which enable a registration of CT measured and other reference datasets (e.g. from tactile CMM). The reference standard embodies complex freeform surfaces which are a challenging measurement task for CT and other sensors. Here the application of the reference standard is the study of the influence of material mixes. This is realized by adding pieces of other materials which disturb the mono-material measurement. Results of the application of the reference standard are presented using data from industrial micro-CT systems and CMM reference data. A special emphasis is given on the workflow of the data processing and the data analysis.

Durch Messungen an speziellen Prüfkörpern ist es möglich, quantitative Informationen über die metrologischen Eigenschaften dimensioneller Messungen zu erhalten. In dieser Arbeit wird einen Aluminium-Guss-Prüfkörper (120 mm x 90 mm x 60 mm) benutzt, mit dem – in der vorliegender Form – auch der Einfluss von Materialien unterschiedlicher Schwächung auf dimensionelle CT-Messungen untersucht werden kann. Der Prüfkörper ist in vier Segmente zerteilt, so dass auch innenliegende, raue Gussfreiformflächen der taktilen Koordinatenmessung zugänglich sind. Durch adaptierte Rubinkugeln als Referenzstrukturen können die CT-Messdaten in taktile Referenz-Koordinatensysteme überführt werden. Um den Einfluss von Materialien unterschiedlicher Schwächung auf das dimensionelle Messen mit CT zu untersuchen, wurden stärker schwächende ZTA-Störkugeln (Zirconia Toughened Alumina) mit zur Ausrichtung geeigneter Symmetriebrechung in der Nähe von ausgewählten taktilen Messstellen angebracht. Zur Bewertung der Messabweichungen dienen taktile Referenzmessungen an den ZTA-Kugeln sowie taktile Messungen an den Freiformflächen des Gussteils, wobei durch ein iteratives Antastverfahren eine verbesserte Erfassung der Geometrie auch bei starken lokalen Oberflächenkrümmungen sichergestellt wird.

T1 - The influence of data filtering on dimensional measurements with CT N2 - Data processing is an essential part of the evaluation of measurement results, e.g. in X-ray computed tomography (CT). Some of these calculations are denoted as 'filtering'. Filtering is always a trade-off between an enhancement of data quality and a loss of information. The standard reconstruction technique for CT data is t he filtered back-projection. Additionally to the high-pass filter inherent to this technique, a suppression of high-frequency noise is in most cases also necessary. Many different possible filter algorithms are found in the literature. Although their effect on the signal-to-noise ratio and the spatial resolution is well-studied, it is not obvious how the different filters affect the determination of the object's surface in the reconstructed data and, thus, the results of dimensional CT measurements. We compare the results of industrial dimensional CT measurements obtained at the same data set of a calibrated reference standard – a calotte cube – when using different filters and discuss the implications. Filters under investigation are mainly median filters on projections and as well filters during filtered backprojection and filters on the reconstructed volume.
