T1 - Automation of pipe defect detection and characterization by structured light N2 - High quality tubular products are essential to the oil and gas industry. Quality control during their production focuses on the non-destructive detection of surface defects. The structured light technique is a candidate for the challenge to detect, monitor and evaluate such defects in real-time. In the present study the automatic processing of structured light measurements is performed and validated. The algorithm for the automatic Analysis of inspection data has an advantage over current data evaluation methods based on individual assessments of operators.

The aim of this study is to assess the influence of the aggregate size on the ASR potential, in particular applied to the sand fractions in the size range of 0.125-4 mm. The investigation concept is based on the hypothesis that at a specific particle size reactive aggregates could change their characteristic influence in mitigating ASR instead of promoting it. For the study of the size dependent behaviour mortars are prepared, considering aggregates of different reactivity, including very reactive, slow-late and quasi non-reactive types. The analysis is based on a stepwise substitution concept, in which mortars with a constant overall grain size distribution are compared, while only one size fraction of the non-reactive base aggregate is substituted by a reactive aggregate type of this specific size fraction. For the expansion experiments an accelerated mortar bar test (80°C, immersed in NaOH solution) was applied. The results show that the slow-late reactive greywacke yielded a strong reduction of the expansion below an aggregate size in the range of 0.5-1 mm. On the other side with the very reactive borosilicate glass, the expansions increased steadily with decreasing size. To validate if the acquired expansions were caused by ASR, thin sections were analysed. Mainly, higher expansion values were consistent with extensively more amounts of ASR indicators.

The assessment procedure applied by BAM is based on a series of full-scale drop tests with different drop heights and Container Orientations. In parallel dynamic FEM calculations are performed. The Container behaviour is monitored during the drop test by a large number of simultaneously triggered biaxial electrical strain gauges and uniaxial accelerometers in order to measure local strains at selected positions and to determine the kinematic behaviour and Orientation of the Container during the impact. Within a research project a dynamic Stereo photogrammetry approach was applied in a high-speed camera configuration to investigate the kinematic rigid body behaviour, relative local movements of the Container or its structural parts in 3D, respectively. In the following the results of this approach are presented. A comprehensive description how to use optica) methods in drop tests can be found in.

The use of Fracture Mechanics in the characterization of fatigue crack growth rate curves has proven to be a useful and adequate tool in the prediction of fatigue lifetimes as long as certain conditions are satisfied. All the above implies the need for a methodical and accurate procedure of assessment of the material response in order to achieve a reliable prediction of lifetime in components under safe conditions, based on the damage tolerance approach. It also highlights the need to analyse the response of increasingly reduced thicknesses, which, as time goes by, show greater differences with respect to those commonly studied and defined in standards and design guidelines, as well as to the experimental studies that can be found in the literature at present. Some examples of thin-walled components are turbine blades or certain additively manufactured parts where, additionally, variations in material properties can occur locally and should also be examined.

It is present in all kinds of structures and no other material secms to rcplace concrete as the most selected building material in the near future. The prime advantages are the high performance, the easy production and a facile processability. The sustainability and durability are important requirements to concrete. Even if concrete is significantly less susceptible against factors promoting a damage, compared to other materials, there are still mechanisms affecting it. In particular, high-ways and hydraulic structures made of concrete worldwide show cases of alkali-silica reaction (ASR) damages. This article refers to experience at BAM Federal InstituteforMaterials Research and Testing for several decades to ASR research and darnage assessment. ASR is a severe darnage mechanism that can occur in concrete, when certain conditions related to composition and cxposition arise in a critical combination. The chemical reaction is based on the alkalis and the silica in the concrete and was first identified by Stanton in highway structures in California (Stanton, 1940). Actually three components are needed to initiate ASR: alkali-sensitive siliceous aggregates, alkalis coming from internal (cement or other components) or external sources (de-icing salt or sea water) and water. If all of these components are sufficiently present an alkali-silica gel could be formed (Hobbs, 1988). This gel itself needs additional space when it is formed. Furthermore it is able to swell in the presence of humidity, both processes generating an expansion pressure inside the concrete. As a consequence of intensive expansion, cracks can occur, which significantly lowers thc strength of the material. Parameters like amount and chemical composition of the gel as weil as the pattern and width of cracks can help to classify the ASR darnage (Swamy, 1992). The objective of this article is to demoostrate the microscopic work on ASR affected concrete samples, carried out to assess the damaging process or to evaluate various alkali-sensitive aggregates. It will explain the approach of ASR investigation from the macroscale to microscale, starting briefly with the condition assessment, over treatment and investigations of samples in the laboratory, to the use of different microscopical and analytical techniques. In the main part the characteristic features for identifying ASR in concrete are presented by using microscopic images. Especially the emphasis lies on the role of the aggregate.

Our results reveal control of the aggregation-induced spectroscopic changes and the packing motifs of the dye molecules in the solid state by the chemical nature and structure of the second nitrogen-containing donor, i.e., a planar and a rigid julolidine or a twisted triphenyl group. Assuming that the TMT and TMJ aggregates show a comparable arrangement of the molecules to the respective crystals, these different molecular interactions in the solid state are responsible for aggregation induced emission (AIE) in the case of TMT and its absence for TMJ. Moreover, a versatile strategy for the fluorescence enhancement of only weakly emissive AIE dyes is shown, turning these dyes into bright nanoscale fluorescent reporters by using them as stains for preformed polymer particles.

Optical microscopy revealed variation in the microstructure of the parent material, in the heat affected and fusion zones, correlating with distinctive changes in the local magnetic stray fields measured with high spatial resolution giant magneto resistance sensors. In the vicinity of the heat affected zone high residual stresses were found using neutron diffraction. Notably, the gradients of von Mises stress and triaxial magnetic stray field modulus follow the same tendency transverse to the weld. In contrast, micro-X-ray fluorescence characterization indicated that local changes in element composition had no independent effect on magnetic stray fields.

However, their real internal structure usually deviates from an ideal core–shell structure. To control how the particles perform with regard to their specific applications, characterization techniques are required that can distinguish an ideal from a nonideal morphology. In this work, we investigated poly(tetrafluoroethylene)–poly(methyl methacrylate) (PTFE–PMMA) and poly(tetrafluoroethylene)–polystyrene (PTFE–PS) polymer CSNPs with a constant core diameter (45 nm) but varying shell thicknesses (4–50 nm). As confirmed by transmission scanning electron microscopy (T-SEM), the shell completely covers the core for the PTFE–PMMA nanoparticles, while the encapsulation of the core by the shell material is incomplete for the PTFE–PS nanoparticles. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was applied to determine the shell thickness of the nanoparticles. The software SESSA v2.0 was used to analyze the intensities of the elastic peaks, and the QUASES software package was employed to evaluate the shape of the inelastic background in the XPS survey spectra. For the first time, nanoparticle shell thicknesses are presented, which are exclusively based on the analysis of the XPS inelastic background. Furthermore, principal component analysis (PCA)-assisted time-of-flight secondary-ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) of the PTFE–PS nanoparticle sample set revealed a systematic variation among the samples and, thus, confirmed the incomplete encapsulation of the core by the shell material. As opposed to that, no variation is observed in the PCA score plots of the PTFE–PMMA nanoparticle sample set. Consequently, the complete coverage of the core by the shell material is proved by ToF-SIMS with a certainty that cannot be achieved by XPS and T-SEM.
