T1 - Introduction to “Realistic Simulation of real CT systems with a basic-qualified Simulation Software - CTSimU2“ N2 - The lack of traceability to meter of X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) measurements still hinders a more extensive acceptance of CT in coordinate metrology and industry. To ensure traceable, reliable, and accurate measurements, the determination of the task-specific measurement uncertainty is necessary. The German guideline VDI/VDE 2630 part 2.1 describes a procedure to determine the measurement uncertainty for CT experimentally by conducting several repeated measurements with a calibrated test specimen. However, this experimental procedure is cost and effort intensive. Therefore, the simulation of dimensional measurement tasks conducted with X-ray computed tomography can close these drawbacks. Additionally, recent developments towards a resource and cost-efficient production (“smart factory”) motivate the need for a corresponding numerical model of a CT system (“digital twin”) as well. As there is no standardized procedure to determine the measurement uncertainty of a CT system by simulation at the moment, the project series CTSimU was initiated, aiming at this gap. Concretely, the goal is the development of a procedure to determine the measurement uncertainty numerically by radiographic simulation. The first project (2019-2022), "Radiographic Computed Tomography Simulation for Measurement Uncertainty Evaluation - CTSimU" developed a framework to qualify a radiographic simulation software concerning the correct simulation of physical laws and functionalities. The most important outcome was a draft for a new guideline VDI/VDE 2630 part 2.2, which is currently under discussion in the VDI/VDE committee. The follow-up project CTSimU2 "Realistic Simulation of real CT systems with a basic-qualified Simulation Software" will deal with building and characterizing a digital replica of a specific real-world CT system. The two main targets of this project will be a toolbox including methods and procedures to configure a realistic CT system simulation and to develop tests to check if this replica is sufficient enough. The result will be a draft for a follow-up VDI/VDE guideline proposing standardized procedures to determine a CT system's corresponding characteristics and test the simulation (copy) of a real-world CT system which we call a "digital twin".

T1 - Application of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy for the analysis of slags in industrial steel production N2 - Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a fast and versatile technique for (semi) quantitative element analysis of solids, liquids, gases, and particulate matter. The LIBS method is used for optical sensing in various branches of industrial production. In the contribution we review some of our recent results on LIBS analysis of slags from secondary metallurgy in industrial steel making. Major oxides in steel slags are measured at-line and after homogenization using a calibration-free (CF) method. Two approaches for CF analysis based on the Boltzmann plot method and on the calculation of synthetic spectra are compared for the analysis of quaternary oxides. We also present the research in cooperation with our industrial partners in the process-analytical chemistry network PAC. T2 - 11.

T1 - Raman band widths of anhydrite II reveal the burning history of high-fired medieval gypsum mortars N2 - The use of high-fired gypsum as binder for masonry and joint mortars or stuccowork in Central Europe in the Early and High Middle Ages was a regional specific as it depended on local gypsum deposits. The calcination technology possible at the time resulted in an assemblage of calcium sulphate phases dehydrated to different degrees and partly thermally damaged accessory minerals of the raw gypsum. Because of the absence of medieval textbooks, the observation of high-temperature, low-pressure mineral transformations and the correlation of phases coexisting in not hydrated binder relicts in the gypsum matrix to the mineralogy of the raw material and the burning conditions constitute the only source to the historical technological know-how. The CaSO4–H2O system consists of five crystalline phases, which can be discriminated by structural analysis methods, such as Raman spectroscopy, due to obvious differences in their spectroscopic data: gypsum (CaSO4 ⋅ 2 H2O), bassanite (hemihydrate, CaSO4 ⋅ ½ H2O), anhydrite III (CaSO4), anhydrite II (CaSO4), and anhydrite I (CaSO4). Only recently, it was possible to demonstrate that small spectroscopic variations exist also within the relatively large stability range of anhydrite II from approx. 180°C to 1180°C: all Raman bands narrow with increasing burning temperature applied in the synthesis from gypsum powder. The determination of band widths of down to 3 cm-1 and differences between them of a few tenths of a wavenumber is not a trivial task. Thus, this contribution discusses peak fitting and strategies for correction of instrument-dependent band broadening. Raman maps of polished thin sections of gypsum mortars provide access to the burning histories of individual remnant thermal anhydrite grains and enable the discrimination of natural anhydrite originating from the gypsum deposit. This novel analytical method was applied to samples from medieval South Tyrolean stucco decorations and sculptures. Beyond that, Raman microspectroscopy was employed for following pyrometamorphic reactions in natural impurities of the raw material. In the presented examples mineral thermometry indicates process temperatures above 800°C: the breakdown of magnesium-rich chlorite led to the formation of forsterite Mg2SiO4, while the thermal decomposition of dolomite CaMg(CO3)2 yielded – after hydration and carbonation – magnesite MgCO3, CaCO3 polymorphs and magnesian calcite. Lower burning temperatures, which leave the accessory minerals in their pristine form, can be traced by measuring the spectra of anhydrite crystalites in grains of firing products and evaluating Raman band widths. Throughout the applications of this analytical method so far, calcination temperatures ranging from approx. 600°C to 900°C were determined.
