T1 - Schnelle Messung und tomographische Rekonstruktion von Brennflecken < 5 μm durch Aufnahmen strukturierter Prüfkörper N2 - Im Europäischen EMPIR-Projekt „NanoXSpot“ (Measurement of the focal spot size of Xray tubes with spot sizes down to 100 nm) werden neue Messmethoden für Brennflecke von Röntgenröhren entwickelt. Teil des Projektes ist die Entwicklung eines zur Lochkameramethode äquivalenten Messverfahrens für kleine Brennflecke. ASTM E 1165-20, Annex A, beschreibt die Bestimmung von Brennfleckgrößen aus Kantenprofilen von Lochaufnahmen für Röntgenröhren mit Brennflecken > 50 μm. Es wurde bereits vorgeschlagen über die Analyse der richtungsabhängigen Kantenunschärfe einer Lochblende und anschließender CT-Rekonstruktion die Intensitätsverteilung des Brennflecks äquivalent zur Lochkameraaufnahme zu berechnen. Die Lochkameramethode, wie in EN 12543-2 und ASTM E 1165-20 beschrieben, ist im unteren Größenbereich für Mikrofokusröhren nicht geeignet, da Pinholes < 10 μm schwer zu fertigen sind und lange Belichtungszeiten erwartet werden. Mit Hilfe exakt gefertigter Lochblenden sowie strukturierter Targets mit konvergierenden Strukturen wird der Bereich mit der Single-Shot-CT-Methode auf die Messung von Mikrofokusröhren, alternativ zur Vermessung von Kanten oder Strichgruppenkörpern, erweitert. Die rekonstruierten Brennfleckformen werden mit Kantenund Lochkameraaufnahmen quantitativ verglichen, um die Messgenauigkeit zu bewerten. Außerdem werden CNR und Messzeit bestimmt, um die Wirtschaftlichkeit der Verfahren zu bewerten.

T1 - Analysis of angular dependent spatial frequency response of Digital Coplanar Translational Laminography N2 - Digital Coplanar Translational Laminography (CTL) is a radiographic imaging technique that permits the visualization of structural details and discontinuities in the object of interest after 3D reconstruction from multiple projections. This technique becomes quite competitive regarding to computed tomography in situations of arrangements in which no complete rotation of the X-ray source - detector system around the object of interest is accessible or in cases where the part to be inspected has a high geometric asymmetry. The literature does not show many studies about image quality for different laminographic reconstructions and scan geometries. Different methodologies for measuring the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) as a key image quality parameter for the aforementioned technique are applied. The MTF was measured using different approaches, presampled MTF or sampled MTF, both based on the Fourier Transform-Magnitude Spectrum or the square wave MTF using line pattern gauges. A sample known as Siemens Star with a converging line pattern was used to measure the circular square wave MTF. This circular MTF provides information on the direction dependent contrast transfer related to the measurement conditions, the reconstruction algorithms and the translational scan direction. For this purpose, several MTF measurements were performed in multiple angular directions. Beyond it, reconstructions were performed using different algorithms (Filtered Shifted Average) and an iterative one (MART – Multiplicative Algebraic Reconstruction Technique). Image quality analysis were done for both reconstruction methods. MART showed an image quality improvement for challenging conditions for laminographic arrangements, such as for a low number of projections (down to 25 for this study, considered as limited view, limited angle reconstruction). Additionally, a Gadolinium gauge with parallel line patterns within a range from 10 μm to 1000 μm was used to compare the square wave MTF with the sine MTFs, measured by the different techniques mentioned above. The results show that the MTF techniques presented are equivalent in this study. The results obtained for this Gadolinium plate showed a good agreement between MTF10% and SRb image measurements. The methodology presented here is used for the characterization of the frequency dependent spatial resolution of measurements obtained from different laminographic reconstruction techniques and scan geometries. Finally, from the acquisitions and reconstructions obtained with the Siemens Star, cross laminographic images were calculated in order to improve the direction dependent sensitivity. The results showed a better detectability for cross laminographic images in comparison to unidirectional coplanar translational laminographic images covering dead zones.

Schriftenreihe des Netzwerks zur interdisziplinären Kulturerhaltung hatte ich angeführt, dass bei der Untersuchung von kulturellen Artefakten naturwissenschaftliche Untersuchungsmethoden zunehmend an Bedeutung gewinnen, sie eigentlich unverzichtbar geworden sind. Ein besonders einprägsames Beispiel dieser fächerübergreifenden Zusammenarbeit zwischen Geisteswissenschaften, Naturwissenschaften und Restaurierungswissenschaften war die Ausstellung Johannes Vermeer. Vom Innehalten, die in diesem Jahr in der Gemäldegalerie Alter Meister in den staatlichen Kunstsammlungen Dresden gezeigt wurde. Eigens für diese Ausstellung wurde das Gemälde Brieflesendes Mädchen am offenen Fenster einer grundlegenden Restaurierung unterzogen. Diese Restaurierung diente jedoch nicht nur der Reparatur des Bildes. Um sich dem ursprünglichen Zustand des Gemäldes zwischen 1657 und 1659 anzunähern, wurden später hinzugefügte Malschichten großflächig abgenommen. Möglich wurde dies durch unterschiedliche, bildgebende materialwissenschaftliche Untersuchungen im Vorfeld, welche die wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen für die Diskussion über den weiteren Umgang mit der Lesenden schufen. Materialanalytische Verfahren wurden und werden ständig weiterentwickelt und optimiert. Sei es, um aus einer Vielzahl von Einzelmessungen ein Gesamtbild zu erstellen, oder die Größe einer Probenentnahme so zu reduzieren, dass von einer „minimal-invasiven“ oder „quasi nicht-invasiven“ Untersuchung ausgegangen werden kann. Nun feiert die Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung, zusammen mit ihren Vorgängerinstitutionen, den königlichen Versuchsanstalten, in diesem Jahr ihren einhundertfünfzigsten Geburtstag. Sie blickt damit auf eine lange Tradition materialwissenschaftlicher Analysen zurück, an deren Beginn beispielsweise die metallographischen Untersuchungen von Adolf Martens stehen. Derartige Untersuchungen bilden auch heute noch einen wesentlichen Bestandteil archäometallurgischer Forschung. Die Historie bzw. die Weiterentwicklung der Methodik lässt sich hier besonders gut nachzeichnen. Jedoch blicken auch Verfahren zur Charakterisierung weiterer Werkstoffe, wie Glas, Keramik, oder organischer Materialien auf eine lange Geschichte zurück. Die in diesem Band der N.i.Ke.-Schriftenreihe präsentierten Beiträge dokumentieren einerseits aktuelle Forschungsarbeiten, die erst in diesem Jahr in entsprechenden Fachjournalen publiziert wurden, andererseits liegen einige der Arbeiten bereits 50 Jahre zurück. Sie bekunden damit nicht nur die materialtechnologische und historische Bandbreite der Projekte, sondern offenbaren die Vielfältigkeit kulturhistorischer oder restauratorischer Fragestellungen, zu deren Beantwortung natur- und materialwissenschaftliche Forschung wesentliche Beiträge liefern können. Ich bedanke mich bei allen Kolleginnen und Kollegen, die zur Erstellung dieser dritten Ausgabe der N.i.Ke. Schriftenreihe des Netzwerks zur interdisziplinären Kulturerhaltung beigetragen haben. Ihre Aufsätze ermöglichen den Blick in die Vielfältigkeit materialwissenschaftlicher Untersuchungen im Bereich Kunst- und Kulturgut. Ich wünsche Ihnen viel Spaß auf dieser kleinen Zeitreise.

T1 - Efficient and affordable thermomagnetic materials for harvesting low grade waste heat N2 - Industrial processes release substantial quantities of waste heat, which can be harvested to generate electricity. At present, the conversion of low grade waste heat to electricity relies solely on thermoelectric materials, but such materials are expensive and have low thermodynamic efficiencies. Although thermomagnetic materials may offer a promising alternative, their performance remains to be evaluated, thereby hindering their real-world application. Here, the efficiency and cost effectiveness of thermomagnetic materials are evaluated for the usage in motors, oscillators, and generators for converting waste heat to electricity. The analysis reveals that up to temperature differences of several 10 K, the best thermomagnetic materials have the potential to compete with thermoelectric materials. Importantly, it is found that the price per watt of some thermomagnetic materials is much lower compared to that of present-day thermoelectrics, which can become competitive with conventional power plants. This materials library enables the selection of the best available thermomagnetic materials for harvesting waste heat and gives guidelines for their future development.

Allerdings ist die Erstellung von Referenzdaten in den meisten Fällen extrem teuer und daher viel knapper als in anderen Forschungsbereichen. Auch decken die verfügbaren Daten mitunter nur ein einziges Szenario ab, so dass die Leistungsindikatoren oft nicht die tatsächliche Leistung des ML-Modells in der praktischen Anwendung widerspiegeln. Schätzungen, die die Übertragbarkeit von einem Szenario auf ein anderes quantifizieren, sind erforderlich, um dieser Herausforderung gerecht zu werden und den Weg für Anwendungen in der Praxis zu ebnen. In diesem Beitrag stellen wir Werkzeuge zur Beschreibung der Unsicherheit von ML in neuen ZfPBau-Szenarien vor. Zu diesem Zweck haben wir einen bestehenden Trainingsdatensatz zur Klassifizierung von Korrosionsschäden der Bewehrung in Beton um eine neue Fallstudie erweitert. Die Messungen wurden an großflächigen Betonproben mit eingebauter chloridinduzierter Korrosion des Bewehrungsstahls durchgeführt. Das Experiment simulierte den gesamten Lebenszyklus von chloridinduzierten Sichtbetonbauteilen im Labor. Unser Datensatz umfasst Potenzialfeld- und Radarmessungen. Die einzigartige Fähigkeit, die Schädigung zu überwachen und eine gezielte Korrosion einzuleiten, ermöglichte es, die Daten zu labeln - was für die Konstruktion von ML-Modellen entscheidend ist. Um die Übertragbarkeit zu untersuchen, erweitern wir unser Modell um Metadaten - wie etwa Konstruktionsmerkmale des Prüfkörpers und Umweltbedingungen. Dies erlaubt es, die Veränderung dieser Merkmale in neuen Szenarien mit statistischen Methoden als Unsicherheiten auszudrücken. Wir vergleichen verschiedene auf Stichproben und statistischer Verteilung basierende Ansätze und zeigen, wie diese Methoden eingesetzt werden können, um Wissenslücken von ML-Modellen in der ZfP zu schließen T2 - DGZfP Jahrestagung 2021 CY - Online meeting DA - 10.05.2021 KW - Machine Learning KW - Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung KW - Datenfusion KW - Multi Sensor KW - Unsicherheitsquantifizierung PY - 2021 AN - OPUS4-54124 LA - deu AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Völker, Christoph A1 - Kruschwitz, Sabine A1 - Benner, Philipp T1 - Uncertainty quantification for a sparse machine learning (ML) data set in non-destructive testing in civil engineering (NDT-CE) N2 - ML has been successfully applied to solve many NDT-CE tasks. This is usually demonstrated with performance metrics that evaluate the model as a whole based on a given set of data. However, since in most cases the creation of reference data is extremely expensive, the data used is generally much sparser than in other areas, such as e-commerce. As a result, performance indicators often do not reflect the practical applicability of the ML model. Estimates that quantify transferability from one case to another are necessary to meet this challenge and pave the way for real world applications. In this contribution we invetigate the uncertainty of ML in new NDT-CE scenarios. For this purpose, we have extended an existing training data set for the classification of corrosion damage by a new case study. Our data set includes half-cell potential mapping and ground-penetrating radar measurements. The measurements were performed on large-area concrete samples with built-in chloride-induced corrosion of reinforcement. The experiment simulated the entire life cycle of chloride induced exposed concrete components in the laboratory. The unique ability to monitor deterioration and initiate targeted corrosion initiation allowed the data to be labelled - which is crucial to ML. To investigate transferability, we extend our data by including new design features of the test specimen and environmental conditions. This allows to express the change of these features in new scenarios as uncertainties using statistical methods. We compare different sampling and statistical distribution-based approaches and show how these methods can be used to close knowledge gaps of ML models in NDT.

The variation of their proportions alone leads to millions of materials candidates. Identifying suitable materials is very laborious; traditional systematic research in the laboratory consumes a lot of time and effort. Sequential learning (SL) potentially speeds up the materials research process despite limited but highly complex available information. SL does not make direct predictions of material properties but ranks possible experiments according to their utility. The most promising experiments are prioritized over dead-end experiments and experiments whose outcome is already known. Our work has shown that SL seems to be promising for cement research. So far, research has mainly focused on materials whose synthesis is faster and whose material properties require less time for development or characterization (allowing many successive experiments). Contrarily, in the case of binders, SL is only useful if few experiments lead to the desired goal, as for example, the determination of the compressive strength alone typically requires 28 days. In research practice, experimental designs and the availability of resources often determine which data can be used - for example, when some laboratory resources are not available or deemed irrelevant to a task. As a result, new research scenarios are constantly emerging, each of which requires to demonstrate SL’s performance. We are presenting the SLAMD app to facilitate the exploration of SL methods in numerous research scenarios. The app provides flexible and low-threshold access to AI methods via intuitive and interactive user interfaces. We deliberately pursue a software-based research approach (as opposed to code-, or script-based). On the one hand, the results are more comprehensible since we refer to a common (code) basis (’reproducible science’). On the other hand, the methods are easily accessible to all which accelerates the knowledge transfer into laboratory practice.

T1 - An Ontology-Based Approach to Enable Data-Driven Research in the Field of NDT in Civil Engineering N2 - Although measurement data from the civil engineering sector are an important basis for scientific analyses in the field of non-destructive testing (NDT), there is still no uniform representation of these data. An analysis of data sets across different test objects or test types is therefore associated with a high manual effort. Ontologies and the semantic web are technologies already used in numerous intelligent systems such as material cyberinfrastructures or research databases. This contribution demonstrates the application of these technologies to the case of the 1H nuclear magnetic resonance relaxometry, which is commonly used to characterize water content and porosity distri-bution in solids. The methodology implemented for this purpose was developed specifically to be applied to materials science (MS) tests. The aim of this paper is to analyze such a methodology from the perspective of data interoperability using ontologies. Three benefits are expected from this ap-proach to the study of the implementation of interoperability in the NDT domain: First, expanding knowledge of how the intrinsic characteristics of the NDT domain determine the application of semantic technologies. Second, to determine which aspects of such an implementation can be improved and in what ways. Finally, the baselines of future research in the field of data integration for NDT are drawn.

T1 - Photoacoustic thermal characterization of low thermal diffusivity thin films N2 - The photoacoustic measurement technique is a powerful yet underrepresented method to characterize the thermal transport properties of thin films. For the case of isotropic low thermal diffusivity samples, such as glasses or polymers, we demonstrate a general approach to extract the thermal conductivity with a high degree of significance. We discuss in particular the influence of thermal effusivity, thermal diffusivity, and sample layer thickness on the significance and accuracy of this measurement technique. These fundamental thermal properties guide sample and substrate selection to allow for a feasible thermal transport characterization. Furthermore, our data evaluation allows us to directly extract the thermal conductivity from this transient technique, without separate determination of the volumetric heat capacity, when appropriate boundary conditions are fulfilled. Using silica, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) thin films, and various substrates (quartz, steel, and silicon), we verify the quantitative correctness of our analytical approach.

Especially the subject of partial saturation requires further research since it is more likely to occur than full saturation of the material. In fact, partial saturation in porous media is even more complicated because both fully and partly saturated pores (i.e. pores in which the surfaces are covered with thin water layers) are present. As the non-destructive method nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) enables the measurement and quantification of relative low moisture contents, it is suitable for the investigation of partly saturated porous building materials. Nevertheless, the differentiation between partly and fully saturated pores is still a challenge. Therefore, in this study, we investigate two sandstones types (Bozanov and Schönbrunner sandstone) at various defined saturation states by using NMR. Furthermore, we measure the relative humidities within the samples and compute the water layer thicknesses (WLT) along the pore walls of all pore sizes to calculate the corresponding degree of pore saturation.

N2 - That human factors (HF) affect the reliability of NDT is not novelty. Still, when it comes to reliability assessments, the role of people is often neglected. Reliability is typically expressed in terms of POD curves, and the effects of human and organisational factors on the inspection are typically tackled by the regulations, procedures and by the qualification and training of the inspection personnel. However, studies have shown that even the most experienced personnel can make mistakes and that the reliability in the field is never as high as the reliability measured in the POD experiments. Generally, HF are considered too unpredictable and too uncontrollable to model. If that is the fact, then what can we do? The engineering perspective to this problem has often been to find ways to automate inspections and, recently, to make use of artificial intelligence tools to decrease the direct effect of people on the inspection results and improve the overall efficiency and reliability. However, despite automation and AI, people remain the key players, though their tasks change. The contemporary approach to HF is not to engineer them out of the system but to design human-machine systems that make the best use of both. In this talk, ways of tackling HF in the design of systems and processes will be presented.

T1 - NDE 4.0: New Paradigm for the NDE Inspection Personnel N2 - Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) is entering an era of the fourth industrial revolution and will undergo a major transformation. NDE is a vital part of industry and a successful move to NDE 4.0, it will require not just developing and embracing new technologies, but also developing and adopting new ways of working and becoming an integral part of the overall Industry 4.0. This will pose new challenges for the inspection personnel. To ensure the expected benefits from NDE 4.0, inspectors need stay in charge of the changing inspections. The promised autonomy and interconnectedness of NDE 4.0 will supersede the majority of traditional inspector tasks and will in turn require a different set of skills and raise different demands and challenges for the inspection personnel, thus conflicting the current “procedure-following”-“level I-III” paradigm. The new industry 4.0 technologies can be integrated into the current framework, but exploiting their full potential requires changes in the role of the inspectors. The inspectors will be relieved from the tedious and error-prone aspects of the current system. At the same time, they will need to take responsibility for increasingly complex automated systems and work in closer collaboration with other experts. We propose that the traditional inspector roles will be transformed into that of the system developer, caretaker, and problem solver, each requiring a specific set of skills and assuming different responsibilities. For full NDE 4.0, NDE must abandon its traditional role as a self-contained entity with well-defined boundaries and take its role in the wider system that is the industry 4.0.

T1 - GPR wave dispersion for material characterization N2 - This paper studies the dispersion of GPR wave’s phase velocity at different wideband frequencies in plywood and concrete with varying moisture content. This study makes use of two GPR antennas with 2 GHz centre frequency operating in wide angle reflection and refraction (WARR) mode and with computation of spectral analysis of the surface wave (SASW). Computation of phase velocities is based on the Acquisition of the cross-power spectrum and phase unwrap of two distorted ground waves at positions Closer to and farther away from the transmitting antenna. The velocities of the ground waves are found to experience greater dispersion in low frequency regimes within the effective frequency bandwidths determined and thresholded by time–frequency analysis (TFA) and coherence plotting of the ground waves. This study validates not only the methodology, but also identifies the optimal distance between the first (Rx1) and second (Rx2) receivers as k/2, which is based on a fixed transmitter (Tx) minus the first Receiver (Rx1) distance. It serves as an indication of changeable separation distance when other lower frequency GPR is used because the distances of Tx-Rx1 and Rx1-Rx2 are wavelength dependent and thus also frequency dependent. Effects of moisture contents and chloride contamination in concrete were also characterized according to the dispersion plots . that wave traelling in lower frequencies in GPR wave is much decelerated than that in higher frequencies. This research also contributes to the building of the ‘‘GPRWARR machine” suggested in Annan and Jackson (2017) [1], within which the effects of wave Dispersion on phase velocity can be inversely modelled to characterize variations in the material properties of infrastructure as a means of detecting surface damage.

So können erforderliche Renovierungsmaßnahmen effizient geplant und mögliche Folgeschäden vermieden werden. Zur messtechnischen Beantwortung dieser Fragestellungen werden bereits seit vielen Jahren Neutronensonden eingesetzt, welche allerdings keine Tiefenzuordnung des schadensträchtigen Flüssigwassers zulassen. Hierzu müssen mit hohem zeitlichem und finanziellem Aufwand zerstörende Sondierungsbohrungen vorgenommen werden, welche zukünftig durch den parallelen Einsatz des Radarverfahrens vermieden werden könnten. In systematischen Laborstudien wurden gängige Feuchteschäden an häufig anzutreffenden Fußbodenaufbauten simuliert und deren Einfluss auf das Messsignal untersucht. Hierbei kamen Zementund Anhydritestriche, sowie die Dämmmaterialen Styropor, Styrodur, Glaswolle und Perlite-Schüttung mit variierenden Schichtdicken zum Einsatz, um die vielfältigen Konfigurationen der Praxis abzubilden. Für den gewonnenen Datensatz konnten geeignete Signalmerkmale extrahiert werden, welche mithilfe multivariater Datenauswertung eine Klassifizierung des vorliegenden Schadenfalls zulassen. Zum Ende des Forschungsvorhabens steht besonders die Anwendbarkeit der entwickelten Methoden für die Praxis im Fokus. Hierzu wurden Messungen an realen Schadensfällen durchgeführt und deren Ergebnisse mit den Laboruntersuchungen verglichen. Hierbei stellten sich variierende Schichtdicken, sowie vorkommende Fußbodenheizungen und Armierungsgitter als mögliche Fehlerquellen für eine vollständig automatisierte Auswertung heraus. T2 - 81.

Auch wenn zur qualitativen Lokalisierung möglicher Schad- und Risikostellen bereits zahlreiche zerstörungsfreie Verfahren in der Praxis Anwendung finden, besteht ein Mangel an quantitativen Verfahren, die auch bei niedrigen Feuchtegehalten sensitiv sind. Eine Methode zur zerstörungsfreien und quantitativen Bestimmung des Feuchtegehaltes und der effektiven Porosität ist die 1H-Kernspinresonzanzmethode (NMR). Da NMR sensitiv für die molekulare Beweglichkeit von Wasserstoffprotonen ist, lassen sich Informationen über die Bindungsform und -stärke sowie der Umgebung (Porengröße und Mineralzusammensetzung) der Wasserstoffprotonen gewinnen. Obwohl es bereits seit über 20 Jahren mobile NMR-Messeräte gibt, wird NMR heutzutage immer noch weitestgehend im Labor eingesetzt. Dies liegt daran, dass sie aufgrund der verwendeten Permanentmagnete schwer sind und nur äußerst geringe Eindringtiefen ermöglichen. In einer derzeit laufenden Forschungsarbeit wird deshalb ein speziell für Bohrkerne entworfener NMR-Tomograph eingesetzt. Mit seiner minimalen Echozeit von 50 µs lässt sich (abhängig von der Oberflächenrelaxivität) Wasser bis in nanometergroßen Poren erfassen. Um die Sensitivität von NMR bei Teilsättigung zu untersuchen, wurden verschiedene Sandsteinproben in Exsikkatoren mit relativen Luftfeuchten im Bereich von 33 % bis 96 % gelagert. Als Referenzen dienen zum einen das NMR-Signal bei Vollsättigung und zum anderen die Porengrößenverteilung aus Quecksilberporosimetriemessungen (MIP). Um die NMR-Sensitivität zu bewerten, wird die Korrelation der NMR-Amplitude mit den gravimetrisch ermittelten Feuchtegehalten sowie ein Vergleich der Porosität aus NMR und MIP betrachtet. Zu beachten ist in diesem Zusammenhang, dass sowohl die Reduzierung der Wasserfilmdicke als auch die Verkleinerung von Porengrößen zu einer ähnlichen Verkürzung der T2-Relaxationszeit führt. Als Ausblick wird ein Lösungsansatz vorgestellt, bei dem die NMR-Signale mit der Wasserfilmdickenberechnung basierend auf der relativen Luftfeuchte im Material korreliert werden. T2 - 81.

Small particles produced by the drywood termite Incisitermes marginipennis and the EHB Hylotrupes bajulus during feeding in construction timber, were used. Frass is a powdery material of particularly consistent quality that is essentially biologically processed wood mixed with debris of wood and faeces. The filigree-like particles flow easily permitting the build-up of woodbased structures in a layer wise fashion using the Binder Jetting printing process. The Quality of powders produced by different insect species was compared along with the processing steps and properties of the printed parts. Drywood termite frass with a Hausner Ratio HR = 1.1 with ρBulk = 0.67 g/cm3 and ρTap = 0.74 g/cm3 was perfectly suited to deposition of uniformly packed layers in 3D printing. We suggest that a variety of naturally available feedstocks could be used in environmentally responsible approaches to scientific material sciences/additive manufacturing.

Teil des Projektes ist die Entwicklung eines zur Lochkameramethode äquivalenten Messverfahrens für kleine Brennflecke. ASTM E 1165-20, Annex A, beschreibt die Bestimmung von Brennfleckgrößen aus Kantenprofilen von Lochaufnahmen für Röntgenröhren mit Brennflecken > 50 μm. Es wurde bereits vorgeschlagen über die Analyse der richtungsabhängigen Kantenunschärfe einer Lochblende und anschließender CT-Rekonstruktion die Intensitätsverteilung des Brennflecks äquivalent zur Lochkameraaufnahme zu berechnen. Die Lochkameramethode, wie in EN 12543-2 und ASTM E 1165-20 beschrieben, ist im unteren Größenbereich für Mikrofokusröhren nicht geeignet, da Pinholes < 10 μm schwer zu fertigen sind und lange Belichtungszeiten erwartet werden. Mit Hilfe exakt gefertigter Lochblenden sowie strukturierter Targets mit konvergierenden Strukturen wird der Bereich mit der Single-Shot-CT-Methode auf die Messung von Mikrofokusröhren, alternativ zur Vermessung von Kanten oder Strichgruppenkörpern, erweitert. Die rekonstruierten Brennfleckformen werden mit Kanten und Lochkameraaufnahmen quantitativ verglichen, um die Messgenauigkeit zu bewerten. Außerdem werden CNR und Messzeit bestimmt, um die Wirtschaftlichkeit der Verfahren zu bewerten.

T1 - Sequential learning to accelerate discovery of alkali-activated binders N2 - Alkali-activated binders (AAB) can provide a clean alternative to conventional cement in terms of CO2 emissions. However, as yet there are no sufficiently accurate material models to effectively predict the AAB properties, thus making optimal mix design highly costly and reducing the attractiveness of such binders. This work adopts sequential learning (SL) in high-dimensional material spaces (consisting of composition and processing data) to find AABs that exhibit desired properties. The SL approach combines machine learning models and feedback from real experiments. For this purpose, 131 data points were collected from different publications. The data sources are described in detail, and the differences between the binders are discussed. The sought-after target property is the compressive strength of the binders after 28 days. The success is benchmarked in terms of the number of experiments required to find materials with the desired strength. The influence of some constraints was systematically analyzed, e.g., the possibility to parallelize the experiments, the influence of the chosen algorithm and the size of the training data set. The results show the advantage of SL, i.e., the amount of data required can potentially be reduced by at least one order of magnitude compared to traditional machine learning models, while at the same time exploiting highly complex information. This brings applications in laboratory practice within reach.

In the event of damage, the accurate determination and localization of water ingress is essential to plan for and perform efficient renovations. Neutron probes are already applied successfully on building floors to localize the source of damage and other affected areas. However, additional information about the depth of moisture penetration can only be obtained by the destructive extraction of drilling cores, which is a time- and cost-intensive procedure. With its high sensitivity to water and fast measurement procedure, Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) can serve as a suitable extension to the neutron probe, enabling more precise characterization of common forms of moisture damage. In this research project, we study the influence of common types of moisture damage in differing floor constructions using GPR and a neutron probe. A measurement setup with interchangeable layers is used to vary the screed material (cement or anhydrite) and insulation material (Styrofoam, Styrodur, glass wool, perlite), as well as the respective layer thickness. Every configuration is measured for the following main cases: 1) dry state; 2) with a damaged insulation layer and 3) a damaged screed layer. The evaluation is focused on the extraction of distinctive signal features for GPR, which can be used to classify the underlying case of damage. Furthermore, possible combinations of these features are investigated using multivariate data analysis and machine learning in order to evaluate the influence of different floor constructions. To validate the developed methods, practical measurements on real damage cases in Germany are carried out and compared to reference data obtained from drilling cores.

The time- and costintensive procedure constitutes an additional burden for building insurances that already list piped water damage as their largest item. With its high sensitivity for water, a ground-penetrating radar (GPR) could provide important support to approach this problem in a non-destructive way. In this research, we study the influence of moisture damage on GPR signals at different floor constructions. For this purpose, a modular specimen with interchangeable layers is developed to vary the screed and insulation material, as well as the respective layer thickness. The obtained data set is then used to investigate suitable signal features to classify three scenarios: dry, damaged insulation, and damaged screed. It was found that analyzing statistical distributions of A-scan features inside one B-scan allows for accurate classification on unknown floor constructions. Combining the features with multivariate data analysis and machine learning was the key to achieve satisfying results. The developed method provides a basis for upcoming validations on real damage cases.

This is intended to supplement or replace the previously practiced manual sorting, which harbors many risks and dangers for the staff and only enables obvious, visually detectable differences for separation. The method of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy is to be used in combination with hyperspectral sensors. Due to the jointly processed information (data fusion), this should lead to a significant improvement in the separation of types. In addition to the sorting of different materials (concrete, main masonry building materials, organic components, glass, etc.), impurities such as SO3-containing building materials (gypsum, aerated concrete, etc.) could also be detected and separated. The subsequent recycling and sales opportunities are examined, such as the use of recycled aggregates in concrete, the recycling of building materials containing sulphate as a gypsum substitute for the cement industry or the agglomeration of synthetic lightweight aggregates for lightweight concrete or as a substrate for green roofs. At the same time, it is investigated whether soluble components (sulfates, heavy metals, etc.) can be detected by LIBS without a wet chemical analysis and what impact the recycling materials have on the environment. The entire value chain is examined using the example of the Berlin location in order to minimize economic / technological barriers and obstacles on a cluster level and to sustainably increase the recovery and recycling rates.

T1 - Capability of active thermography to detect and localize pores in Metal Additive Manufacturing materials N2 - Active thermography is a fast, contactless and non-destructive technique that can be used to detect internal defects in different types of material. Volumetric irregularities such as the presence of pores in materials produced by the Additive Manufacturing processes can strongly affect the thermophysical and the mechanical properties of the final component. In this work, an experimental investigation aimed at detecting different pores in a sample made of stainless AISI 316L produced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) was carried out using pulsed thermography in reflection mode. The capability of the technique and the adopted setups in terms of geometrical and thermal resolution, acquisition frequency and energy Density of the heating source were assessed to discern two contiguous pores as well as to detect a single pore. Moreover, a quantitative indication about the minimum resolvable pore size among the available and analysed defects was provided. A powerful tool to assess the Limits and the opportunities of the pulsed technique in terms of detectability and localizability was provided by comparing active thermography results to Computed Tomography as well as a related Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to simulate the pulsed heating transfer with Comsol.

Hence, we present an overview of the various approaches to carry out moisture measurements with GPR in civil engineering (CE). We especially focus on the applied Signal features such as time, amplitude and frequency features and discuss their limitations. Since the majority of publications rely on one single feature when applying moisture measurements, we also hope to encourage the consideration of approaches that combine different signal features for further developments.

T1 - Design of Multimodal Absorption in the Mid-IR: A Metal Dielectric Metal Approach N2 - Specific control on the mid-infrared (mid-IR) Emission properties is attracting increasing attention for thermal camouflage and passive cooling applications. Metal−dielectric−metal (MDM) structures are well known to support strong magnetic polariton resonances in the optical and near-infrared range. We extend the current understanding of such an MDM structure by specifically designing Au disc arrays on top of ZnS−Au−Si substrates and pushing their resonances to the mid-IR regime. Therefore, we combine fabrication via lift-off photolithography with the finite element method and an inductance−capacitance model. With this combination of techniques, we demonstrate that the magnetic polariton resonance of the first order strongly depends on the individual disc diameter. Furthermore, the fabrication of multiple discs within one unit cell allows a linear combination of the fundamental resonances to conceive broadband absorptance. Quite importantly, even in mixed resonator cases, the absorptance spectra can be fully described by a superposition of the individual disc properties. Our contribution provides rational guidance to deterministically design mid-IR emitting materials with specific narrow- or broadband properties.

Mainly in materials research and especially in the field of non-destructive testing in civil engineering it is increasingly used. Scientific questions about and based on NMR meanwhile cover a broad spectrum. To give an overview, we have reviewed various studies dealing with the determination of moisture contents and parameters such as the pore-size distribution, surface relaxivity, porosity, etc. In some papers, the monitoring of moisture transport in connection with degradation processes or admixtures was the main objective. In other papers, NMR was used for pore space analysis or even applied on site to assess the state of conservation of cultural heritage. Building materials that have been investigated in the presented studies are for example cement, concrete, woods, sandstones etc. In this paper, short descriptions and the significant results of the reviewed articles are summarized and their measurement problems and discrepancies are pointed out. A special feature of this review article is the concise tabular compilation of determined 𝑇1 and 𝑇2 relaxation times, as well as of surface relaxivity values for various materials and components. Finally, relevant aspects are summed up and conclusions about the increasing potential of NMR relaxometry for investigations of porous building materials are drawn, followed by an outlook about future applications and the need for technical development.

This permits to distinguish between overlapping indications, measure the extension along radiation direction and classify indications as surface open or subsurface ones as required in critical engineering assessment. This work provides a comparative study and measurements of the three techniques Digital Radiography (DR) with Digital Detector Arrays (DDA), Coplanar Translational Laminography (CTL) and Computed Tomography (CT), applied for composite pipeline inspection. It is demonstrated that CTL and CT provide advantages for the evaluation of pipe-to-pipe connections and the evaluation of adhesive applications. They show indications of discontinuities with higher contrast sensitivity than radiography. Beyond it, two specimen, namely Phantom 1 and Phantom 2, were developed and manufactured by additive manufacturing to analyze the preferential detection sensitivity and the direction of features and depth information for laminographic measurements. Another goal was to show the laminographic capabilities to distinguish between overlapping discontinuities. CTL is especially suitable for mobile inspection. Special glass fiber reinforced polymer samples (GRP) were manufactured for further analysis and comparisons between the abovementioned techniques. Finally, Phantoms 1 and 2 show the capability of laminography to detect overlapping indications and also show that discontinuities oriented perpendicular to the scan direction have the highest contrast sensitivity for laminographic measurements.

T1 - Percolation Threshold of the Thermal, Electrical and Optical Properties of Carbonyl-Iron Microcomposites N2 - Composites made up of microparticles embedded in a polymeric matrix have attracted increasing attention due to the possibility of tailoring their physical properties by adding the adequate quantity of fillers. As the concentration of these fillers increases, their connectivity changes drastically at a given threshold and therefore the electrical, thermal and optical properties of these composites are expected to exhibit a percolation effect. In this work, the thermal and electrical conductivities along with the emissivity of Composites composed of carbonyl-iron microparticles randomly distributed in a polyester resin matrix are measured, for volume fractions ranging from 0 to 0.55. It is shown that both the thermal and electrical conductivities increase with the particles’ concentration, such that their percolation threshold appears at volume fractions of 0.46 and 0.38, respectively. The emissivity, on the other hand, decreases as the fillers’ concentration increases, such that it exhibits a substantial decay at a volume fraction of 0.41. The percolation threshold of the emissivity is thus higher than that of the thermal conductivity, but lower than the electrical conductivity one. This dispersion on the percolation concentration is justified by the different physical mechanisms required to activate the electrical, thermal, and optical responses of the considered composites. The obtained results thus show that the percolation phenomenon can efficiently be used to enhance or reduce the physical properties of particulate composites.

T1 - Artificial Intelligence for Mass Spectrometry and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Using a Novel Data Augmentation Method N2 - Mass Spectrometry (MS) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) are valuable analytical and quality control methods for most industrial chemical processes as they provide information on the concentrations of individual compounds and by-products. These processes are traditionally carried out manually and by a specialist, which takes a substantial amount of time and prevents their utilization for real-time closed-loop process control. This paper presents recent advances from two projects that use Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) to address the challenges of automation and performance-efficient realizations of MS and NMR. In the first part, a complete toolchain has been realized to develop simulated spectra and train ANNs to identify compounds in MS. In the second part, a limited number of experimental NMR spectra have been augmented by simulated spectra, to train an ANN with better prediction performance and speed than state-of-the-art analysis. These results suggest that, in the context of the digital transformation of the process industry, we are now on the threshold of a strongly simplified use of MS and MRS and the accompanying data evaluation by machine-supported procedures, and can utilize both methods much wider for reaction and process monitoring or quality control.

Usually, only a rectangular pulse shape of a typical duration of a few milliseconds is regarded when flash lamps pulses are described. This note considers the afterglow period of a flash lamp explicitly and shows that negligence of this afterglow effect leads to a systematic underestimation of the pulse length and the related total energy release. In the reported case, the intensity transient recorded by a Silicon photo diode was transformed into a temperature transient, allowing the study of the real energy release. It turns out that approximately only 50% of the entire pulse energy were released during the usually regarded period of 2.8 ms, while the other half was released within a period of 20 ms with an exponential decay.

Thermography is a nondestructive testing method that allows the in-situ determination of the thermal history of the produced part which is connected to the mechanical properties and the formation of defects [1]. A wide range of commercial thermographic camera systems working in different spectral ranges is available on the market. The understanding of the applicability of these cameras for qualitative and quantitative in-situ measurements in L-PBF is of vital importance [2]. In this study, the building process of a cylindrical specimen (Inconel 718) is monitored by three camera systems simultaniously. These camera systems are sensitive in various spectral bandwidths providing information in different temperature ranges. The performance of each camera system is explored in the context of the extraction of image features for the detection of defects. It is shown that the high temporal and thermal process dynamics are limiting factors on this matter. The combination of different spectral camera systems promises the potential of an improved defect detection by data fusion.

A1 - Ziegler, Mathias T1 - Photothermal-SR-Net: A customized deep unfolding neural network for photothermal super resolution imaging N2 - This paper presents deep unfolding neural networks to handle inverse problems in photothermal radiometry enabling super resolution (SR) imaging. Photothermal imaging is a well-known technique in active thermography for nondestructive inspection of defects in materials such as metals or composites. A grand challenge of active thermography is to overcome the spatial resolution limitation imposed by heat diffusion in order to accurately resolve each defect. The photothermal SR approach enables to extract high-frequency spatial components based on the deconvolution with the thermal point spread function. However, stable deconvolution can only be achieved by using the sparse structure of defect patterns, which often requires tedious, hand-crafted tuning of hyperparameters and results in computationally intensive algorithms. On this account, Photothermal-SR-Net is proposed in this paper, which performs deconvolution by deep unfolding considering the underlying physics. This enables to super resolve 2D thermal images for nondestructive testing with a substantially improved convergence rate. Since defects appear sparsely in materials, Photothermal-SR-Net applies trained blocksparsity thresholding to the acquired thermal images in each convolutional layer. The performance of the proposed approach is evaluated and discussed using various deep unfolding and thresholding approaches applied to 2D thermal images. Subsequently, studies are conducted on how to increase the reconstruction quality and the computational performance of Photothermal-SR-Net is evaluated. Thereby, it was found that the computing time for creating high-resolution images could be significantly reduced without decreasing the reconstruction quality by using pixel binning as a preprocessing step.

The proposed algorithm performs faster than another algorithm, for crack detection, based on the application of two Sobel filters (one in x and another one in y directions). For FLT it is shown that processing 10-25 % of the thermograms of a thermographic film required to scan a whole sample is enough to obtain good results. In contrast, using the Sobel filter approach requires the processing of twice the thermographic film length. Experimental measurements are performed on a metallic component of complex shape which contains real defects, that is, surface breaking cracks due to industrial use. The specimen is tested using flying line thermography. Three different scanning speeds are tested: 10, 30 and 60 mms-1 with laser powers of 50, 60 and 120 W respectively. The sample and an infrared camera are aligned and fixed on a motorized linear stage. The diode laser LDM500 (500 W max power) is fixed on an optical bench separately from the linear stage. The results obtained with the proposed algorithm are additionally compared with a previously established algorithm for flying spot thermography based on the Sobel filter. It is shown that the proposed algorithm based on the Canny approach, can be used in automated systems for thermographic non-destructive testing.

T1 - Thermografie und Strahlungsthermometrie - Stand und Trends N2 - In vielen Umgebungen, besonders bei hohen Temperaturen, korrosiven Umgebungen oder auf bewegten oder schlecht zugänglichen Flächen, kann die Temperatur nicht oder nur mit nicht akzeptablem Aufwand mit Berührungsthermometern gemessen werden. Diese Umgebungsbedingungen sind unter anderem in der chemischen Industrie, der Lebensmittel-, Metall-, Glas-, Kunststoff- und Papierherstellung sowie bei der Lacktrocknung anzutreffen. In diesen Bereichen kommen Strahlungsthermometer zum Einsatz. Der VDI-Statusreport zeigt typische Anwendungsfelder von nicht radiometrisch kalibrierten Wärmebildkameras und von radiometrisch kalibrierten Thermografiekameras. Um verlässlich mit spezifizierten Messunsicherheiten berührungslos Temperaturen zu messen, müssen die Strahlungsthermometer und Thermografiekameras nicht nur kalibriert, sondern radiometrisch und strahlungsthermometrisch umfassend charakterisiert werden. Auch die optische Materialeigenschaft, der spektrale Emissionsgrad und die Gesamtstrahlungsbilanz (Strahlung des Messobjekts und der Umgebung) sind bei der industriellen Temperaturmessung von großer Bedeutung. In den letzten Jahrzehnten ist dazu ein umfassendes technisches Regelwerk entstanden, das wir Ihnen mit diesem VDI-Statusreport vorstellen. Manche in den Richtlinien beschriebenen Kennwerte mögen abstrakt wirken. In diesem Statusreport zeigen wir an konkreten Beispielen, was diese Kenngrößen für die berührungslose Temperaturmessung bedeuten. Beispiele von Anwendungen zeigen, wo temperaturmessende Thermografiekameras und ausschließlich bildgebende Wärmebildkameras in der Praxis eingesetzt werden. Mit einer Analyse, welche Themen und Anwendungen derzeit besonders intensiv diskutiert werden, versuchen wir Trends für zukünftige Entwicklungen herauszuarbeiten.

As experimental approach, laser-based structured illumination is performed in a step-wise manner. As an intermediate signal processing step, the virtual wave concept is used in order to effectively convert the notoriously difficult to solve diffusion-based inverse problem into a somewhat milder wavebased inverse problem. As a final step, a compressed-sensing based optimization procedure is applied which efficiently solves the inverse problem by making advantage of the joint sparsity of multiple blind measurements. To evaluate our proposed processing technique, we investigate an additively manufactured stainless steel sample with eight internal defects. The concerted super resolution approach is compared to conventional thermographic reconstruction techniques and shows an at least four times better spatial resolution.

T1 - Classification of Spot-Welded Joints in Laser Thermography Data Using Convolutional Neural Networks N2 - Spot welding is a crucial process step in various industries. However, classification of spot welding quality is still a tedious process due to the complexity and sensitivity of the test material, which drain conventional approaches to its limits. In this article, we propose an approach for quality inspection of spot weldings using images from laser thermography data. We propose data preparation approaches based on the underlying physics of spot-welded joints, heated with pulsed laser thermography by analyzing the intensity over time and derive dedicated data filters to generate training datasets. Subsequently, we utilize convolutional neural networks to classify weld quality and compare the performance of different models against each other. We achieve competitive results in terms of classifying the different welding quality classes compared to traditional approaches, reaching an accuracy of more than 95 percent.

Basierend auf einer Kombination aus der Anwendung spezieller Abtaststrategien und einer anschließenden numerischen Optimierungsschritt bei der Datenauswertung hat sich die thermografische Super Resolution bereits bei der Detektion von 1D-Defekten gegenüber den Standard-Thermografieverfahren als überlegen erwiesen. In unserer Arbeit erweitern wir die Möglichkeiten der Methode zur effizienten Detektion und Auflösung von Defektquerschnitten mit einer vollständig 2D-strukturierten Erwärmung. Der experimentelle Ansatz basiert auf einer wiederholten räumlich strukturierten Erwärmung durch einen Hochleistungslaser. In einem zweiten Nachbearbeitungsschritt werden mehrere kohärente Messungen mittels mathematischer Optimierung und unter Ausnutzung der (Joint-) Sparsity der Defekte innerhalb des Prüfkörpers kombiniert. Als Ergebnis kann eine 2D-sparse Defekt-/ Inhomogenitätskarte erhalten werden.

Viele wichtige Prozessgrößen bei der additiven Fertigung sind thermischer Natur, wie z.B. die Temperatur des Schmelzbades. Aufgrund der Zugänglichkeit zum Werkstück während des Bauprozesses bieten sich optische Verfahren zur Temperaturbestimmung an. Für die Thermografie und Optische Emissionsspektrometrie im IR-Bereich, welche für die in-situ Anwendung prinzipiell als geeignet angesehen werden können, gibt es allerdings noch wenig konkrete praktische Umsetzungen, da die Möglichkeiten und individuellen Grenzen dieser Methoden, angewendet auf AM, noch nicht ausreichend erforscht sind. Aus diesem Grund verfolgt die BAM mit dem Projekt „Process Monitoring of AM“ (ProMoAM) im Themenfeld Material das Ziel, Verfahren des Prozessmonitorings zur in-situ Bewertung der Qualität additiv gefertigter Metallbauteile weiterzuentwickeln. Im Beitrag wird der Fokus auf eine Versuchsserie gelegt, bei der Aufbau von Probekörpern aus dem austenitischen Edelstahl 316L mittels Laser-Pulver-Auftragschweißen (LPA) durch od. mit Hilfe von IR-Spektrometrie und Thermografie in-situ überwacht wurde. Hierbei stellen u.a. die hohe Bandbreite der zu messenden Temperaturen, die Bestimmung der Emissivität und ihre Änderung bei Phasenübergängen des Metalls große experimentelle Herausforderungen dar, wobei jede Methode individuelle Vor- und Nachteile aufweist, welche verglichen werden.

Einige der wichtigsten Messgrößen sind hierbei die Temperatur des Schmelzbades und die Abkühlrate, welche starken Einfluss auf das Gefüge und die Eigenspannung haben. Aufgrund der Zugänglichkeit zum Werkstück während des Bauprozesses bieten sich optische Verfahren zu Temperaturbestimmung an. Hierbei stellen jedoch u. a. die hohe Bandbreite der zu messenden Temperaturen, die Bestimmung der Emissivität und ihre Änderung bei Phasenübergängen der verwendeten Legierung große experimentelle Herausforderungen dar. Eine weitere Herausforderung stellt für die IR-Spektroskopie die Absorption durch das Schutzgas und weitere optische Elemente dar. Um diese auch in einem industriellen Umfeld kompensieren zu können, wurde eine Methode entwickelt, die das gemessene Spektrum bei der Verfestigung des Werkstoffes als Referenz nutzt. In diesem Beitrag wird die Anwendung dieser Methode für die IR-Spektrometrie als auch Thermografische Messungen beim Laser-Pulver-Auftragschweißen von 316L gezeigt, wobei beide Methoden weiterhin in Hinblick auf ihre individuellen Vor- und Nachteile miteinander verglichen werden. N2 - Within the topic area project “Process Monitoring of AM” (ProMoAM) the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing is currently evaluating the applicability of various NDT methods for in-situ process Monitoring in the additive manufacturing (AM) of metals with regard to quality assurance. Two of the most important variables to measure are the temperature of the molten pool and the cooling rate, which have a strong influence on the microstructure and the residual stress. Due to the accessibility of the workpiece during the construction process, optical methods for temperature determination are suitable. However, the wide range of temperatures to be measured, the determination of emissivity and its change during phase transitions of the alloy pose great experimental challenges. Another challenge for IR spectroscopy is the absorption by the inert gas and other optical elements. In order to be able to compensate for this in an industrial environment, a method was developed which uses the measured spectrum as a reference when the material is solidified. This paper shows the application of this method for IR spectrometry as well as thermographic measurements during laser powder cladding of 316L. Furthermore both methods are compared with respect to their individual Advantages and disadvantages.

When it comes to the production of safety critical components, a strict quality assurance is mandatory. An alternative to cost-intensive non-destructive testing of the produced parts is the utilization of in-situ process monitoring techniques. The formation of defects is linked to deviations of the local thermal history of the part from standard conditions. Therefore, one of the most promising monitoring techniques in additive manufacturing is thermography. In this study, features extracted from thermographic data are utilized to investigate the thermal history of cylindrical metal parts. The influence of process parameters, part geometry and scan strategy on the local heat distribution and on the resulting part porosity are presented. The suitability of the extracted features for in-situ process monitoring is discussed.

The most significant obstacle for a broad industrial application of the L-PBF process is the inadequate quality assurance during the manufacturing process so far, leading to high production costs. Although several mainly camera based commercial in-process monitoring systems are already available, a deep understanding of the interpretation of the monitored data and correlation with actual defects is still lacking. One reason for this is the reduction of the complex process signature to just one measurement value. The focus of this contribution is the presentation of the multispectral optical tomography as alternative to single measurand in-situ monitoring systems. The potential of this approach is hereby shown on L-PBF printed samples with induced process instabilities. Beyond that, an in-house developed L-PBF printer for further testing of multi-sensor in-situ monitoring systems is presented.

Zu diesem Zweck werden im Rahmen des von der BAM durchgeführten Themenfeldprojektes „Prozessmonitoring in Additive Manufacturing“ verschiedenste Verfahren auf ihre Tauglichkeit für den in-situ Einsatz bei der Prozessüberwachung in der additiven Fertigung untersucht.

However, the processes are highly complex and due to the rapid thermal cycles involved, high internal stresses and peculiar microstructures occur, which influence the parts mechanical properties. To systematically examine the formation of internal stresses and the microstructure, in-process spatially resolved measurements of the part temperature are needed. If the emissivity of the inspected part is known, its thermodynamic temperature can be reconstructed by a suited radiometric model. However, in additive manufacturing of metals, the emissivity of the part surface is strongly inhomogeneous and rapidly changing due to variations of, e.g., the degree of oxidation, the material state and temperature. Thus, here, the applicability of thermography in the determination of thermodynamic temperatures is limited. However, measuring the process thermal radiation at different wavelengths simultaneously enables one to separate temperature and emissivity spatially resolved to obtain further insight into the process. Here, we present results of an initial study using multispectral thermography to obtain real temperatures and emissivities in the powderfree LMD process.

Thus, sensors and measuring systems are already commercially available for process monitoring, at least in metal-based additive manufacturing. However, it is not yet possible to detect defects and inhomogeneities directly or indirectly during the building process. The aim of the project ProMoAM is to develop spectroscopic and non-destructive testing methods for the in-situ evaluation of the quality of additively manufactured metal components in laser- or arc-based AM processes. In addition to passive and active methods of thermography, this includes optical tomography, optical emission spectroscopy, eddy current testing, laminography (radiography), X-ray backscattering, particle emission spectroscopy and photoacoustic methods.

In this study, an in-depth analysis of the microstructural features of 316L specimens produced by laser powder bed fusion at different levels of volumetric energy density and different levels of inter layer time is reported. The study has been conducted on specimens with an application relevant build height (>100 mm). Furthermore, the evolution of the intrinsic preheating temperature during the build-up of specimens was monitored using a thermographic in-situ monitoring set-up. By applying recently determined emissivity values of 316L powder layers, real temperatures could be quantified. Heat accumulation led to preheating temperatures of up to about 600 °C. Significant differences in the preheating temperatures were discussed with respect to the individual process parameter combinations, including the build height. A strong effect of the inter layer time on the heat accumulation was observed. A shorter inter layer time resulted in an increase of the preheating temperature by more than a factor of 2 in the upper part of the specimens compared to longer inter layer times. This, in turn, resulted in heterogeneity of the microstructure and differences in material properties within individual specimens. The resulting differences in the microstructure were analyzed using electron back scatter diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Results from chemical analysis as well as electron back scatter diffraction measurements indicated stable conditions in terms of chemical alloy composition and austenite phase content for the used set of parameter combinations. However, an increase of the average grain size by more than a factor of 2.5 could be revealed within individual specimens. Additionally, differences in feature size of the solidification cellular substructure were examined and a trend of increasing cell sizes was observed. This trend was attributed to differences in solidification rate and thermal gradients induced by differences in scanning velocity and preheating temperature. A change of the thermal history due to intrinsic preheating could be identified as the main cause of this heterogeneity. It was induced by critical combinations of the energy input and differences in heat transfer conditions by variations of the inter layer time. The microstructural variations were directly correlated to differences in hardness.

T1 - In Situ Real-Time Monitoring Versus Post NDE for Quality Assurance of Additively Manufactured Metal Parts N2 - In this chapter, the current state-of-the-art of in situ monitoring and in situ NDE methods in additive manufacturing is summarized. The focus is set on methods, which are suitable for making statements about the quality and usability of a component currently being manufactured. This includes methods which can be used to determine state properties like temperature or density, other physical properties like electrical or thermal conductivity, the microstructure, the chemical composition, the actual geometry, or which enable the direct detection of defects like cracks, voids, delaminations, or inclusions. Thus, optical, thermographic, acoustic, and electromagnetic methods, as well as methods being suitable for investigating particle and fume emission are presented. The requirements of in situ monitoring methods with a focus on thermographic methods are discussed by considering different additive manufacturing processes like laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB/M) and direct energy deposition (DED-LB/M). Examples of the successful implementation and applications of such monitoring methods at BAM are given. The in situ monitoring and NDE methods are compared against post-process NDE methods. The advantages and challenges of in situ methods concerning real-time data analysis and the application of AI algorithms are addressed and discussed.

A Quantitative Study N2 - Additive manufacturing (AM) of metals and in particular laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) enables a degree of freedom in design unparalleled by conventional subtractive methods. To ensure that the designed precision is matched by the produced LPBF parts, a full understanding of the interaction between the laser and the feedstock powder is needed. It has been shown that the laser also melts subjacent layers of material underneath. This effect plays a key role when designing small cavities or overhanging structures, because, in these cases, the material underneath is feed-stock powder. In this study, we quantify the extension of the melt pool during laser illumination of powder layers and the defect spatial distribution in a cylindrical specimen. During the LPBF process, several layers were intentionally not exposed to the laser beam at various locations, while the build process was monitored by thermography and optical tomography. The cylinder was finally scanned by X-ray computed tomography (XCT). To correlate the positions of the unmolten layers in the part, a staircase was manufactured around the cylinder for easier registration. The results show that healing among layers occurs if a scan strategy is applied, where the orientation of the hatches is changed for each subsequent layer. They also show that small pores and surface roughness of solidified material below a thick layer of unmolten material (>200 µm) serve as seeding points for larger voids. The orientation of the first two layers fully exposed after a thick layer of unmolten powder shapes the orientation of these voids, created by a lack of fusion.

The impact of each mechanism on the shape and magnitudes of the residual stress distribution is described.

Unter der Vielzahl an Einflussfaktoren auf die Qualität und die mechanischen Eigenschaften von L PBF-Bauteilen hat die Zwischenlagenzeit (engl. inter layer time, ILT) bisher kaum Beachtung in der wissenschaftlichen Literatur gefunden, obwohl sie je nach Bauraumausnutzungsgrad stark variieren kann. In diesem Vortrag werden Ergebnisse einer Studie präsentiert, die den Einfluss der ILT in Kombination mit der Bauteilhöhe und unter Berücksichtigung verschiedener Volumenenergiedichten am Beispiel der austenitischen Stahllegierung AISI 316L untersucht. Die Fertigungsprozesse wurden in situ mittels Thermographiekamera überwacht, sodass Informationen über das Abkühlverhalten der Bauteile während des Prozesses gewonnen werden konnten. Es wurden signifikante Effekte der ILT und der Bauteilhöhe auf Wärmeakkumulation, Mikrostruktur, Schmelzbadgeometrie und Härte festgestellt. Ferner konnte ein Anstieg von Defektdichten bei einem gegenseitigen Wechselspiel aus Bauteilhöhe und ILT aufgezeigt werden. Die Zwischenlagenzeit wurde somit als kritischer Faktor für die L-PBF-Fertigung von Realbauteilen identifiziert.

In this talk we will provide an overview over the possibilities of state of the art thermographic in-situ monitoring systems for the DED-LB/M and PBF-LB/M processes and the challenges such as phase transitions and unknown emissivity values in respect to the determination of real temperatures. We define the requirements for different camera systems in various configurations and give examples on the selection of appropriate measurement parameters and data acquisition techniques as well as on techniques for data analysis and interpretation.
