T1 - Unraveling the interaction of MRI contrast agents with tissue using LA ICP MS N2 - Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) is increasingly used to study the distribution of metal-containing drugs, imaging probes and nanomaterials in connection with disease related changes and therapy progress. Additionally, biomolecules can be detected indirectly by using metal-tagged antibodies. The extracellular matrix (ECM) is, besides the cells, an important component of all body tissues. The macromolecular network of the ECM consists of structural proteins (e.g., collagen, elastin) and proteoglycans composed of highly negatively charged carbohydrates, the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), which are covalently linked to a protein core. Many diseases, including inflammatory processes and tumors, are associated with characteristic ECM changes at an early stage. Recent studies have shown that contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which are based on gadolinium containing chelate complexes or iron oxide nanoparticles, can bind themselves to ECM components. To elucidate the role of GAGs like keratan sulfate (KS) and its modification state in disease, highly specific tools are necessary. As a complement to conventional immunohistochemistry LA-ICP-MS was applied to investigate the distribution of KS in tissue thin sections using a well characterized anti-KS antibody labelled with metal ions. Furthermore, LA-ICP-MS was used for the detection of MRI contrast agents and the identification of their target cells and molecules in tissue samples from animal models, e.g. for cardiovascular diseases. The results show the possibilities of LA-ICP-MS for the elucidation of pathological tissue changes.

T1 - Explaining Deviatoric Residual Stresses and Load Transfer in Aluminum Alloys and Composites with Complex Microstructure N2 - The residual stresses and load transfer in multiphase metal alloys and their composites (with both random planar-oriented short fibers and particles) will be shown, as studied by neutron diffraction, by X-ray computed tomography, and by a model based on the reformulation of classic Maxwell’s homogenization method. Contrary to common understanding and state-of-the-art models, we experimentally observe that randomly oriented phases possess non-hydrostatic residual stress. Moreover, we disclose that the unreinforced matrix alloy stays under hydrostatic compression even under external uniaxial compression. The recently developed modeling approach allows calculating the residual stress in all phases of the composites. It rationalizes the presence of deviatoric stresses accounting for the interaction of random oriented phases with fibers having preferential orientation. It also allows the explanation of the unconventional in-situ behavior of the unreinforced alloy and the prediction of the micromechanical behavior of other similar alloys.

The morphology of these structures, and so their chemistry, is influenced by the different laser processing parameters such as the laser fluence, wavelength, pulse repetition rate, the effective number of laser pulses per beam spot area, etc. A simple way to characterize laser-generated surface structures is by means of optical microscopy (OM) or white light interference microscopy (WLIM). The latter can address the surface topography, while having a lateral resolution limit of ~(lambda)/2 (lambda = illumination wavelength). To resolve morphologies with spatial periods significantly smaller than (lambda)/2, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is often used, taking benefit of the reduced de Broglie wavelength associated to the electrons of several keV energy. However, all the above-mentioned techniques lack the necessary depth-resolution to reveal and quantify sub-surface material modifications of these laser-generated structures. Time-of-Flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) represents a promising surface analytical technique for studying laser-induced chemical surface alterations since the method combines a high surface sensitivity with the capability to perform a depth-profiling of the laser-affected surface zone. In this study we combine WLIM and high-resolution SEM with ToF-SIMS to fully characterize the evolution of various types of laser-generated micro- and nanostructures formed on Ti-6Al-4V alloys upon irradiation by near infrared ultrashort laser pulses (1030 nm, 925 fs) at different laser fluence levels, effective number of pulses, and at different pulse repetition rates (1 – 400 kHz). We show how this combined surface analytical approach allows to evaluate alterations in the surface chemistry and topography of the laser-generated surface structures depending on the laser processing parameters T2 - ECASIA 2022 CY - Limerick, Ireland DA - 29.05.2022 KW - Laser-induced periodic surface structures KW - Time of Flight - Secondary ion mass spectrometry KW - White light interferometric microscopy KW - Titanium alloy PY - 2022 AN - OPUS4-54992 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Mishurova, Tatiana A1 - Serrano Munoz, Itziar T1 - Multiscale residual stress analysis and synchrotron X-ray refraction of additively manufactured parts N2 - The overview of the activity of group 8.5 Micro-NDT (BAM, Belin, Germany) in the field of additively manufacturing material characterization will be presented.

The availability of such methods is particularly important for fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) because their properties strongly depend on the manufacturing process and in-service conditions. Since FRPs are mostly used in thin-walled components, properties can be derived from the dispersion curves of ultrasonic guided waves (UGWs). Our approach is based on an inverse procedure in which the numerically calcu-lated dispersion curves are fitted to the measured curves. The acquisition is done by applying a broadband piezoelectric transducer (PZT) to excite and a 3D laser Doppler vibrometer (3D LDV) to record the waves. Compared to the ap-proaches based on laser excitation, the PZT provides a better signal-to-noise ra-tio because more energy is brought into the structure. Whereas the 3D LDV compared to a 1D LDV or a PZT allows capturing in-plane and out-of-plane components and thus providing more dispersion information. Since the inverse procedure requires many iterations before elastic properties are retrieved, an ef-ficient tool for the calculation of the dispersion curves is necessary. For this, the Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method is used. All in all, a good agreement between theoretical and experimental curves is demonstrated.

Projektpartner sind die BAM in Berlin und Hillger NDT. Die Phased-Array-Technik ermöglicht bekanntermaßen eine wesentlich flexiblere Anpassung der Ultraschallprüftechnik an unterschiedliche Prüfaufgaben als die klassische einkanalige Prüftechnik. Um diese Flexibilität auch bei berührungslosen Verfahren wie der Ankopplung über Luft zu erreichen, arbeiten die Partner BAM und Hillger NDT intensiv auf dem Gebiet. Entwickelt wurde ein achtkanaliger thermoakustischer Wandler, der als breitbandiger Phased-Array-Sender eingesetzt wird. Das Ziel im PALUP-Projekt ist die Entwicklung eines Phased-Array-Demonstrators mit Luftankopplung, wobei als Sender und Empfänger Sensoren aus zellulären Kunststoffmaterialien eingesetzt werden. Die Arrays erlauben durch das Umschalten der Elemente ein elektronisches Scannen, elektronisches Schwenken des Einschallwinkels und elektronisches Fokussieren, was bisher nur mit der Phased-Array-Technik mit Koppelmitteln möglich ist. Die Teilziele der BAM sind: die Entwicklung des Layouts für Array-Sender und -Empfänger, Auswahl des zellulären Kunststoffs für den Wandlerbau, Konzept und Bau des Sende- und Empfangssensors sowie die Charakterisierung der Sensoren.

T1 - Isotope signature of iron, copper and zinc in mouse models (L66 and 5XFAD) and their controls used for dementia research N2 - Introduction: The influence of copper, iron and zinc concentrations on the formation of ß-amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is widely discussed in the community. The results from human and animal studies so far are mixed with some studies showing a correlation and others not. From a number of studies, it is known that disease state and isotopic composition of essential elements can be coupled. Aim: The aim of the study was to identify changes in element content and isotopic composition in two transgenic mouse models used in AD research compared to their genetic WT relatives and to establish whether element content and isotopic signature between different laboratories is comparable. Methods: ß-amyloid (5xFAD) and tau overexpressing (L66) mice together with their matching wild-types were bred at dedicated facilities in accordance with the European Communities Council Directive (63/2010/EU). Serum and brain were sampled after sacrifice and the samples distributed among the participants of the study. The tissues were acid digested for total element determination and high-precision isotope ratio determination. Element content was determined by either sector-field or quadrupole-based inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS). For the determination of isotope ratios multi-collector ICPMS was used. Results: Total copper content was significantly higher for L66 and their matched WT compared to 5xFAD and WT. Brains of L66 mice contained more Fe in brain than their WT, Zn and Cu were not significantly different between L66 and WT. Whereas 5xFAD mice had a slightly lower Cu and slightly higher Zn concentration in brain compared to WT. The isotopic signature in brain of L66 mice for Fe was different from their controls, whereas Zn isotope ratios were influenced in 5xFAD mice compared to their WT. The Cu isotopic ratio did not seem to be influenced in either strain. In serum, the shifts were less pronounced. Conclusion: Even though neither Tau-protein nor amyloid precursor protein are known to be metal-dependent / -containing proteins, the overexpression of both influences the Fe, Cu and Zn metabolism in brain and to some extent also in serum as can be seen not only using total element determination but probably more clearly studying the isotopic signature of Fe, Cu and Zn.

NP performance in such applications depends not only on particle size, size distribution, and morphology, but also on surface chemistry, i.e. the total number of surface functional groups (FG) and the number of FG accessible for subsequent functionalization with ligands or biomolecules, which in turn determines surface charge, colloidal stability, biocompatibility, and toxicity. Methods for FG quantification should be simple, robust, reliable, fast, and inexpensive, and allow for the characteriza-tion of a broad variety of nanomaterials differing in size, chemical composition, and optical properties. Aiming at the development of simple, versatile, and multimodal tools for the quantification of many bioanalytically relevant FG such as amine, carboxy, thiol and aldehyde functionalities, we investigated and compared various analytical methods commonly used for functional group quantification. This includes electrochemical titration methods, dye-based optical assays, and other instrumental analytical techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, and thermal analysis methods.

In theory, the uptake into the passive sampler is only dependent on the diffusion coefficient of the analyte in air and the geometry of the sampler (ideal adsorption). For characterization, the uptake rate (UR) is used, defined as the ratio of the uptaken mass and the product of ambient concentration and exposure time. Various reported effective uptake rates (UR,eff) differ considerably from ideal values (UR,id). Literature values in national and international standards, are essentially sorted by the applicable exposure time, while detailed information about the corresponding concentration range is lacking. Moreover the number of itemized substances is limited. The aim of this study was to review and expand this set of uptake rates by determination of own quality assured laboratory values.The determined uptake rates are considered accurate in terms of RSD and comparability to literature values and can be recommended for exposure times of seven days at 50 100 µg/m³ (approximately 100 300 ppm min). Seven day uptake rates in ISO16017 2 and ASTM D6196 are not generally suited for this purpose, as has been exemplarily shown for benzene. N2 - Die passive Probenahme von VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) mit Tenax® TA und Thermodesorption GC/MS Analytik ist eine einfache, kosteneffiziente und repräsentative Methode zur Bestimmung der VOC-Konzentrationen in der Innenraumluft. In der Theorie ist die Stoffaufnahme in den Passivsammler nur abhängig vom Diffusionskoeffizienten der Substanz in Luft und der Geometrie des Sammlers (ideale Adsorption). Um sie zu charakterisieren, wird die Aufnahmerate (UR), definiert als Quotient der Massenaufnahme und dem Produkt aus Konzentration und Expositionszeit, verwendet. Viele effektive Aufnahmeraten (UR,eff) unterscheiden sich beträchtlich von idealen (theoretischen) Werten (UR,id). Literaturwerte sind in nationalen und internationalen Normen lediglich für bestimmte Expositionszeiten vorgegeben, während detaillierte Informationen über den zugehörigen Konzentrationsbereich fehlen. Außerdem ist die Anzahl der insgesamt in der Literatur beschriebenen Substanzen begrenzt. Das Ziel der vorgestellten Studie ist es diesen Fundus an Aufnahmeraten zu begutachten und zu prüfen und ihn durch die Bestimmung eigener qualitätsgesicherter Laborwerte zu ergänzen. Die bestimmten Aufnahmeraten werden als akkurat bezüglich ihrer relativen Standardabweichung und Vergleichbarkeit zu Literaturwerten betrachtet und können für Expositionszeiten von 7 Tagen bei Konzentrationen von 50 100 µg/m³ (ca. 100 300 ppm min) empfohlen werden. Die Sieben Tage Aufnahmeraten aus ISO16017 2 und ASTM D6196 sind nicht generell für diesen Zweck geeignet, wie exemplarisch für Benzol gezeigt wurde. T2 - Kongress 29.

Für die 60 Analyten wurden Wiederfindungsraten auf mehreren Adsorbenzien und deren Kombinationen bestimmt. Dabei zeigte eine Kombination aus einem graphitierten Ruß und einem Kohlenstoff-Molekularsieb hervorragende Ergebnisse für alle Zielkomponenten.

T1 - Super-Resolution for Gas Distribution Mapping: Convolutional Encoder Decoder Network N2 - Gas distribution mapping is important to have an accurate understanding of gas concentration levels in hazardous environments. A major problem is that in-situ gas sensors are only able to measure concentrations at their specific location. The gas distribution in-between the sampling locations must therefore be modeled. In this research, we interpret the task of spatial interpolation between sparsely distributed sensors as a task of enhancing an image's resolution, namely super-resolution. Because autoencoders are proven to perform well for this super-resolution task, we trained a convolutional encoder-decoder neural network to map the gas distribution over a spatially sparse sensor network. Due to the difficulty to collect real-world gas distribution data and missing ground truth, we used synthetic data generated with a gas distribution simulator for training and evaluation of the model. Our results show that the neural network was able to learn the behavior of gas plumes and outperforms simpler interpolation techniques.

A1 - Wilsch, Gerd A1 - Kruschwitz, Sabine T1 - Laser-based sorting of construction and demolition waste for the circular economy N2 - Closed material cycles and unmixed material fractions are required to achieve high recovery and recycling rates in the building industry. The growing diversity of construction and demolition waste is leading to increasing difficulties in separating the individual materials. Manual sorting involves many risks and dangers for the executing staff and is merely based on obvious, visually detectable differences for separation. An automated, sensor-based sorting of these building materials could complement or replace this practice to improve processing speed, recycling rates, sorting quality, and prevailing health conditions. A joint project of partners from industry and research institutions approaches this task by investigating and testing the combination of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and visual (VIS)/ near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. Joint processing of information (data fusion) is expected to significantly improve the sorting quality of various materials like concrete, main masonry building materials, organic components, etc., and may enable the detection and separation of impurities such as SO3-containing building materials (gypsum, aerated concrete, etc.). Focusing on Berlin as an example, the entire value chain will be analyzed to minimize economic/technological barriers and obstacles at the cluster level and to sustainably increase recovery and recycling rates. First LIBS measurements show promising results in distinguishing various material types. A meaningful validation shall be achieved with further practical samples. Future works will investigate the combination of LIBS and VIS/NIR spectroscopy in a fully automated measurement setup with conveyor belt speeds of 3 m/s.

Throughout the world, there are already 5 million sites of soil contaminated by heavy metals1. Some heavy metals pollutants can influence food chain safety and food quality, which in turn affects human health. According to the German Federal Soil Protection and Contaminated Site Ordinance (BBodSchV) 13 heavy metals such as arsenic (As), lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) are classified as heavily toxic to human health2. Therefore, elemental analysis and precise quantification of the heavy metals in soil are of great importance. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) emerged as a powerful technique for trace analysis of soil due to its multi-element capability, high sensitivity and low sample consumption. However, despite its success and widespread use, ICP-MS has several persistent drawbacks, such as high argon gas consumption, argon-based polyatomic interferences and the need for complicated RF-power generators. Unlike argon-based ICP, the nitrogen microwave inductively coupled atmospheric pressure mass spectrometry (MICAP-MS) uses nitrogen as plasma gas, which eliminates high operating costs associated with argon-gas consumption as well as the argon-based interferences3. For the first time, the applicability of MICAP-MS for elemental analysis of environmental soils is investigated in this work. For this purpose, 7 reference- and 3 random soil samples containing vanadium (V), cobalt (Co), zink (Zn), copper (Cu), chrome (Cr), mercury (Hg), As, Pb and Cd are digested with aqua regia and used for analysis. Concentrations of selected elements are determined using MICAP-MS and validated using ICP-MS. Sensitivities, limits of detection and gas consumption for both methods are compared and discussed in detail. Moreover, the performance of MICAP-MS under different nitrogen plasma gas concentrations is investigated and compared T2 - Spectroscopium Colloquium CY - Gijon, Spain DA - 30.05.2022 KW - Microwave inductively coupled atmospheric pressure mass spectrometry (MICAP-MS) KW - Multi-element analysis KW - Soil KW - Nitrogen plasma PY - 2022 AN - OPUS4-55181 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Gornushkin, Igor B. T1 - Optical Detection of Defects during Laser Metal Deposition N2 - Laser metal deposition is a rapidly evolving method for additive manufacturing that combines high performance and simplified production routine. Quality of production depends on an instrumental design and operational parameters, which require constant control during the process. In this work, feasibility of using optical spectroscopy as a control method is studied via modeling and experimentally. A simplified thermal model is developed based on the time-dependent diffusion-conduction heat equation and geometrical light collection into detection optics. Intense light emitted by a laser-heated spot moving across a sample surface is collected and processed to yield the temperature and other temperature-related parameters. In the presence of surface defects, the temperature field is distorted in a specific manner that depends on shape and size of the defect. Optical signals produced by such the distorted temperature fields are simulated and verified experimentally using a 3D metal printer and a sample with artificially carved defects. Three quantities are tested as possible metrics for monitoring the process: temperature, integral intensity, and correlation coefficient. The shapes of the simulated signals qualitatively agree with the experimental signals; this allows for a cautious inference that optical spectroscopy can detect surface defects and, possibly, predict their characters, e.g., inner or protruding.

Es wurde vermutet, dass die Integrität von glasfaserverstärkten Zahnstiften durch das Beschleifen während der zahnmedizinischen Behandlung beeinträchtigt wird. Eine Beschädigung der Fasern führt zu einer erheblichen strukturellen Schwächung über den gesamten Stiftdurchmesser. Glasfragmente, die durch den Kontakt mit dem Zahnbohrer entstehen, können sich vom Stift lösen und die Haftfähigkeit erheblich verringern. Mit Hilfe hochauflösender Synchrotron-Röntgen-Refraktions-Radiographie (SXRR) konnte das Ausmaß der Schäden zuverlässig identifiziert und charakterisiert werden. Dazu wurden die Glasfaserstifte sowohl im Herstellungszustand als auch nach der Bearbeitung mit einem Diamantbohrer untersucht. Die Datensätze wurden zur Visualisierung und Quantifizierung der morphologischen Charakteristika intakter und durch das Beschleifen beschädigter Regionen analysiert. Sie zeigen Schäden im bearbeiteten Bereich (z. B. Brüche, Splitter und Risse) sowie herstellungsbedingte Inhomogenitäten der Fasern mit einer signifikanten Zunahme der inneren Oberflächen in Probenregionen, die durch das Beschleifen beschädigt wurden.

A challenging task however, is the generation of three-dimensional distribution maps from these spatially sparse gas measurements. To obtain high-quality reconstructions, the choice of optimal measuring poses is of great importance. Remote gas sensors, that are commonly used in Robot Assisted Gas Tomography (RAGT), require reflecting surfaces within the sensor’s range, limiting the possible sensing geometries, regardless of whether the robots are ground-based or airborne. By combining ground and aerial robots into a heterogeneous swarm whose agents are equipped with reflectors and remote gas sensors, remote inter-robot gas measurements become available, taking RAGT to the next dimension – releasing those constraints. In this paper, we demonstrate the feasibility of drone-to-drone measurements under realistic conditions and highlight the resulting opportunities.

One possible cause of UCNP toxicity is the release of potentially harmful fluoride fluoride and lanthanide ions as revealed by dilution studies in aqueous environments, particularly under high dilution conditions.2-5 To address this issue, suitable surface coatings preventing such effects in combination with fast screening methods suited for online in situ analysis are desired. Here we present a systematic study of differently sized β-NaYF4:Yb,Er nanocrystals stabilized with different surface coatings and different hydrophilic ligands varying in binding strength to the surface atoms in various aqueous environments at different temperatures.

During this time, the complexity of the setup and the amount of data generated have multiplied. To increase the effectiveness and in preparation for BESSY III, algorithms from the field of machine learning are increasingly used. In this paper, several examples in the areas of beamline alignment and measurement time optimization based on Bayesian optimization (BO) with Gaussian processes (GP) are presented. BO is a method for finding the global optimum of a function using a probabilistic model represented by a GP. The advantage of this method is that it can handle high-dimensional problems, does not depend on the initial estimate, and also provides uncertainty estimates. After a short introduction to BO and GP, the first example is the automatic alignment of our double multilayer monochromator (DMM). To achieve optimal performance, up to three linear and two angular motor positions have to be optimized. To achieve this with a grid scan, at least 100^5 measurement points would be required. Assuming that all positions can be aligned independently, 100*5 points are still necessary. We show that with BO and GP less than 100 points are sufficient to achieve equal or better results. The second example is the optimization of measurement time in XRF scanning. Here we will show the advantage of the BO GP approach over point-by-point scanning. As can be seen in Fig. 1, the number of points required and thus the measurement time can be reduced by a factor of 50, while the loss in image quality is acceptable. The advantages and limitations of this approach will be discussed.

In addition, it is easy to work and largely resistant to chemical influences. Investigations of gold using synchrotron radiation excited X-ray fluorescence analysis are non-destructive and provide information about the chemical elements present in the sample under investigation. The investigations presented here at BAMline focus on questions such as the origin, manufacturing process, and association of gold findings. The different questions are explained by a number of examples ranging from the Viking treasure from Hiddensee to the Nebra Sky Disk and finds from Egypt. The find from Bernstorf is discussed in detail. A Bayesian treatment of the authenticity is shown.

With today's high processing power long experiments are run in a shorter time and increase efficiency. With optimization algorithms time in "counting-hungry" experiments reduced by factor of 10. Our project is to develop a new method to analyze the chemical properties of complex materials non-destructively and efficiently, such as high entropy materials subjected to corrosion processes. A better understanding of the corrosion process will help to develop corrosion-resistant materials and reduce the cost of corrosion damage, which averages around 2.5 trillion USD annually.

In most of the cases, harsh environmental conditions lead materials to degrade due to corrosion. To thoroughly investigate the corrosion processes and to determine oxidation states of metal components within the reaction products, we need special analytical tools. Grazing exit X-ray fluorescence (GEXRF) offers a non-destructive way to collect this information in sub-micrometre depth range. In order to obtain structural information, such as regarding oxidation states or atomic/molecular geometric arrangement, the GEXRF approach can also be combined with the X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) method. The position and energy sensitive detector, with 264x264 pixel detector area, provides information regarding the signal emitted from the sample as a function of the emission angle and thus allows depth-sensitive analysis. Furthermore, the data collected from samples of an incidence energy which can be controlled with a resolution of 0.5 eV provides XANES data to determine oxidation states.

T1 - Synchrotron X-Ray Refraction during in-situ heat treatments N2 - In this work, synchrotron X-ray refraction radiography (SXRR) was combined with in-situ heat treatment to monitor microstructure and porosity evolution as a function of temperature. The investigated material was a laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) manufactured AlSi10Mg, where the initial eutectic Si network is known to break down into larger particles with increasing temperature. Such alloy is also prone to thermally induced porosity (TIP). We show that SXRR allows detecting the changes in the Si-phase morphology upon heating, while this is currently possible only using scanning electron microscopy. SXRR also allows observing the growth of pores, usually studied via X-ray computed tomography, but on much smaller fields-of-view. Our results show the great potential of in-situ SXRR as a tool to gain in-depth knowledge of the susceptibility of any material to thermally induced damage and/or microstructure evolution over statistically relevant volumes.

Therefore, the increasingly aging infrastructure is regularly inspected to assess durability. Regular chemical analysis can be useful to determine the extent and evolution of ion ingress and to intervene in a timely manner. This could prove more economical than extensive repairs for major damage, particularly for critical infrastructure. In addition to already established elemental analysis techniques in civil engineering such as potentiometric titration or X-ray fluorescence analysis, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) can provide further important complementary information and benefits.

T1 - Quantitative Bewertung von Randeffekten bei einer einfachen thermografischen Transmissionsmessung mittels FEM N2 - Der Einsatz von Simulationen mit FEM (Finite Element Method) ermöglicht die die quantitative Beschreibung von Wärmeleitungsprozessen in komplexen Geometrien, bei denen analytische Ansätze nicht angewandt werden können, weil die zugrunde liegenden Vereinfachungen nicht gelten. Bei der genauen Modellierung eines kompletten thermografischen Experiments sieht sich der Modellierer einer ganzen Reihe von technischen und physikalischen Parametern gegenüber, die nicht immer bekannt sind und daher geschätzt werden müssen. Im konkreten Fall wurde ein relativ einfaches Experiment mit einfachen Geometrien betrachtet: ein durch Additive Manufacturing gefertigter Metallblock wurde mit einem Laserpuls homogen erwärmt. Aus dem Zeitverlauf der Oberflächentemperatur an der nicht erwärmten Rückseite des gleichmäßig dicken Blocks sollte die thermische Diffusivität des Volumenmaterials ermittelt werden. Bei dem Versuch, die experimentellen Daten durch eine passende Simulation zu beschreiben, ergab sich zunächst eine deutliche Abweichung: die gemessenen Temperaturen waren generell zu niedrig, was auf einen zusätzlichen Wärmeverlustmechanismus hinwies. Es erwies sich, dass die freie Auflage des Materialblocks auf einem flachen Bolzen zur Probenfixierung bei der Simulation des Experiments zu berücksichtigen ist, um eine gute Übereinstimmung zwischen Experiment und thermischer Simulation zu erzielen. Der Beitrag illustriert damit die Möglichkeiten und Potentiale von FEM-Simulationen bei der quantitativen Bewertung von thermografischen Inspektionen zur zerstörungsfreien Prüfung.

Der im Rahmen des NanoXSpot-Projektes neu entwickelte NxS-Testkörper ist geeignet für den Bereich von 1 μm – 100 μm. Von 100 μm bis 10 mm können ASTM-Lochtestkörper verwendet werden, die bereits bei ASTM E 1165 beschrieben sind. Neu ist die Anwendung eines CT-Algorithmus zur Rekonstruktion der Brennflecke, um Lochblenden-basierte Brennfleckkameras, insbesondere im Bereich unter 100 μm, zu ersetzen. Ein neuer Normteil, EN 12543-6, wurde entworfen, um die Brennfleckmessung im Bereich 100 nm – 20 μm mit hoher Genauigkeit zu ermöglichen. Verschiedene Strichgruppen-Testkörper kommen hier zum Einsatz. Das sind die JIMAPrüfkörper, ein neuer Hochkontrast-Strichgruppentestkörper von YXLON (HiCo) und der neu entwickelte Testkörper NxS. Diese werden vorgestellt. Die Messprozedur für Röhrenhersteller wird auf einer numerischen Fit-Prozedur basieren, die über einen Ringversuch im Projekt validiert wurde. Beide Normen benötigen numerische Auswertealgorithmen zur korrekten Anwendung, die als kommerzielle Software und Public Domain – Software verfügbar gemacht werden. Es wird über die zu erwartenden Standardprozeduren und die erforderliche Hardware zur Anwendung der Normen informiert.

T1 - Back Deposition of Titanium Oxides under Laser Ablation of Titanium: Simulation and Experiment N2 - Titanium is widely used in medicine for implants and prostheses, thanks to its high biocompatibility, good mechanical properties, and high corrosion resistance. Pure titanium, however, has low wear resistance and may release metallic titanium into surrounding tissues. Structuring and coating its surface with oxide layers are necessary for high wear resistance and improved biocompatibility. In this work, a combination of theoretical and experimental methods was used to study processes responsible for deposition of titanium oxides during ablation of titanium in air. The deposition process was modeled via the Navier-Stokes equations that accounted for the material removal and accumulation of the deposit on the ablation surface. The chemical part was based on the equilibrium model embedded into the hydrodynamic code. Simulations showed that the most active zone of production of condensed titanium oxides were at plasma periphery whereas a zone of strong condensation of titanium metal was above the molten pool. In experiment, a pulsed Yb fiber laser was scanned across a titanium surface. The temperature and composition of the plasma were inferred from plasma emission spectra. The post-ablation surface was analyzed by SEM, TEM, STEM, AFM, and XRD. The developed model well reproduced the main features of experimental data. It was concluded that the deposition of condensed metal oxides from the plasma is a principal mechanism of formation of nanoporous oxide layer on the metal surface. The method of surface structuring and modification by nanosecond laser ablation can be developed into a useful technology that may find applications in medicine, photonics, and other areas.

T1 - Stand der Normierung in der Thermografie N2 - Die Thermografie ist trotz ihrer ausgereiften wissenschaftlichen und technologischen Grundlagen ein noch relativ junges Mitglied in der Familie der zerstörungsfreien Prüfverfahren. Sie erschließt sich aufgrund einer Reihe von Vorzügen eine wachsende Anwenderschaft. Für eine weitere Verbreitung insbesondere im industriellen Kontext spielen Normen, Standards und Richtlinien eine wichtige Rolle. In diesem Beitrag wird der aktuelle Stand der Normierung vorgestellt. Wir werden zeigen, welche Grundlagennormen und Anwendungsnormen es für die Thermografie in Deutschland und international gibt und wir wagen einen Blick in die Zukunft. Darüber hinaus lebt auch die Normierungsarbeit von der Beteiligung durch interessierte Kreise.

T1 - Simulating a Gas Source Localization Algorithm with Gas Dispersion Produced by Recorded Outdoor Wind N2 - This presentation reports the use of the first gas dispersion simulator capable of generating large wind fluctuation, to test a modification to a gas source localization algorithm and study how the change affects it. Gas source localization at an outdoor environment is a challenging task mainly due to the complexity of the spreading gas caused by the unpredictable nature of constantly changing wind. Therefore, a novel use of outdoor wind in developing a gas source localization system by simulation will be shared. To consider the characteristic of sudden but large and unpredictable changes in wind direction, recorded outdoor wind was used to simulate a realistic outdoor gas dispersion which has been done for the first time. With the use of this simulator, a modification to a mobile robot-based gas source localization algorithm was evaluated. Multiple simulations of the modified and the original algorithm were done to study the effect of the tested modification. The results showed that a small difference in the algorithm can greatly impact the results. From this study, we consider the use of simulation consisting of the necessary traits to evaluate outdoor gas source localization, has the potential to accelerate the development of a reliable localization system.

T1 - Learning From the Past: Sequential Deep Learning for Gas Distribution Mapping N2 - To better understand the dynamics in hazardous environments, gas distribution mapping aims to map the gas concentration levels of a specified area precisely. Sampling is typically carried out in a spatially sparse manner, either with a mobile robot or a sensor network and concentration values between known data points have to be interpolated. In this paper, we investigate sequential deep learning models that are able to map the gas distribution based on a multiple time step input from a sensor network. We propose a novel hybrid convolutional LSTM - transpose convolutional structure that we train with synthetic gas distribution data. Our results show that learning the spatial and temporal correlation of gas plume patterns outperforms a non-sequential neural network model.

Die erfolgreiche Lösung einer solchen Aufgabe setzt voraus die ausreichende Kenntnis physikalischer, chemischer, mechanischer und technologischer Eigenschaften von verfügbaren und preiswürdigen Stoffen und Stoffzuständen, deren Beeinflußbarkeit und deren Auswirkungen auf den angestrebten Zweck einschließlich erwünschter belangloser oder auch unerwünschter aber erträglicher oder zusätzlich zu kompensierender Nebenwirkungen. Dafür wiederum braucht man ausreichende qualitative und quantitative Vorstellungen über die mit der angestrebten Funktion zusammenhängenden physikalischen Vorgänge, mechanischen Anstrengungen und chemischen Einwirkungen in dem so bedingten Verbundsystem von Werkstoffen entsprechender Eigenschaften. Aufgaben dieser Art sind z. B. Konstruktionen für die Wandlung, Verteilung, Nutzung oder Abwehr von Energie für die Herstellung, die Verarbeitung und den Transport von Stoffen, für die Darstellung von Wohnung, Kleidung und Nahrung sowie jener materiellen und organisatorischen Voraussetzungen, die dem Menschen als Gesellschaftswesen und über den physischen Bereich hinaus dienen. Hinweisende Beispiele zeigen, daß die Problematik der Prüfung von Verbundwerkstoffen am zuverlässigsten erfaßt und beherrscht werden kann, wenn die Kenntnis der Eigenschaften von Stoffen und Materialien dem konstruktiv zu behandelnden Funktionszweck entspricht, dadurch eine souveräne Auswahl im Sinne einer weiter reichenden Kombination einzelner hervorragender Eigenschaften möglich ist und das Geplante als geschaffene Wirklichkeit durch den prüfenden Versuch und die beobachtete Bewährung bestätigt wird.

T1 - Richtlinie zur Charakterisierung von luftgekoppelten Ultraschallwandlern N2 - Zur Charakterisierung von luftgekoppelten Ultraschallwandlern werden mehrere verschiedene Methoden und Verfahren angewendet. Durch die unterschiedlichen Herangehensweisen werden oft unterschiedliche Prüfkopfpara-meter und Schallfeldgrößen ermittelt, was einen direkten Vergleich von Datenblättern erschwert. Für die Charakterisierung von Kontakt- und Tauchtechnikprüfköpfen hat sich ISO 22232-2:2021 bereits etabliert, allerdings ist diese Norm nicht auf die luftgekoppelten Wandlertechnologien direkt übertragbar. Daher erkannten Hersteller, Forschungseinrichtungen und Anwender den Bedarf an einer Richtlinie zur einheitlichen Charakterisierung von luftgekoppelten Wandlern. Gemeinsam arbeiten sie aktuell im Rahmen des Unterausschusses „Luftgekoppelte Ultraschallprüfung“ der DGZfP an der Erstellung einer solcher Richtlinie mit dem Anspruch, die bestehende Normung um die luftgekoppelte Prüfung zu erweitern und somit die Vereinheitlichung der Charakterisierung dieser Wandler zu erleichtern. In diesem Beitrag wird ein Überblick über den geplanten Inhalt der Richtlinie und über die Methoden zur akustischen Charakterisierung von luftgekoppelten Ultraschallwandlern gegeben. Insbesondere werden verschiedene Methoden der Ermittlung von wichtigen Wandlerparametern wie z.B. Empfindlichkeit, Mittenfrequenz, Bandbreite, Fokusgröße und Fokusabstand dargestellt und verglichen.

Um aus dem messtechnisch ermittelten Ausbreitungsverhalten geführter Ultraschallwellen Rückschlüsse auf die Materialparameter zu ziehen, werden in der aktuellen Forschung verschiedene inverse Methoden diskutiert. Dispersionsabbildungen im Frequenz-Wellenzahl-Bereich repräsentieren das Ausbreitungsverhalten geführter Ultraschallwellen. Maschinelles Lernen und insbesondere Convolutional-Neural-Networks (CNNs) sind eine Möglichkeit der automatisierten inversen Bestimmung der Materialparameter aus den Dispersionsabbildungen. In diesem Beitrag wird anhand synthetischer Daten gezeigt, wie das Ausbreitungsverhalten von geführten Ultraschallwellen unter Verwendung von CNNs und Dispersionsabbildungen genutzt werden kann, um die elastischen Konstanten einer isotropen plattenförmigen Struktur zu bestimmen. Anhand dieses Beispiels wird das generelle Vorgehen zur Anwendung maschineller neuronaler Lernverfahren aufgezeigt. Hierfür werden die verwendeten Daten analysiert, das Preprocessing erläutert und eine einfache CNN-Architektur gewählt.

The advantages of LIBS over standard methods are the possibility of multi-element analysis, measurement speed, spatially resolved measurements, and minimal sample preparation. The spatially resolved measurements of LIBS allow the assessment of the heterogeneity of the concrete by measuring separately the chemical composition of the aggregates and the binder matrix. The latter is particularly relevant because the determined elemental distribution can be directly related to the binder matrix. This is not possible with standard methods, since the material is homogenized to powder during sample preparation stage and the determined concentration is thus related to the total mass. In addition to the use of LIBS for the specific analysis of individual harmful ions, LIBS can also be used to estimate the concrete composition and thus determine, for example, the type of cement used. Corresponding information are relevant for the estimation of the remaining service life and for the preparation of a maintenance concept. In recent years, LIBS has been increasingly used in civil engineering. Currently, however, it is primarily used in research institutions and only occasionally in building materials laboratories. Special commercial devices have also been developed, which greatly simplify the application due to the high degree of automation. Mobile LIBS systems allow on-site application. A central point, which limits the use of LIBS in the commercial sector, is the lack of norms and standards. Therefore, within the framework of a project funded by the German government, work has been carried out on the preparation of a leaflet on quantitative chlorine determination in concrete, which will be published this year. In interlaboratory comparisons the robustness and accuracy for the practical application was demonstrated. LIBS also has great potential in the recycling of construction waste in conjunction with hyperspectral sensors. This issue is currently being addressed in a national project. During the presentation, the state of the art of LIBS in civil engineering will be presented, next steps will be discussed, and future challenges will be outlined.

In concrete structures, pittingcorrosion of the reinforcement is the predominant deterioration mechanism affecting serviceability and eventually structural performance. Determination of quantitative chloride ingress is not only necessary to obtain valuable information on the current condition of a structure, but the data obtained can also be used to predict future developments and the associated risks. An overview of the progress and the possibilities of the application of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy for concrete analysis in daily civil engineering practice is given. High-resolution 2D measurements of drill cores to determine the penetration of harmful species into concrete is presented. Furthermore, the application of a mobile LIBS system in a parking garage is shown. The system consists of a diode-pumped low-energy laser (3 mJ, 1.5 ns, 100 Hz) and a compact NIR spectrometer. A scanner allows two-dimensional element mapping. Progress towards the establishment of LIBS in a leaflet for the analysis of chlorine ingress into concrete in civil engineering is presented.

Automated systems are already commercially available capable of scanning surfaces with a resolution of up to 0.1 mm within a few minutes. In addition to possible applications in R&D, LIBS is also used for practical applications in building materials laboratories and even on-site. In view of ageing infrastructure facilities, a reliable assessment of the condition of concrete structures is of increasing interest. For concrete structures, the ingress of potential harmful ions is affecting the serviceability and eventually structural performance. Pitting corrosion induced by penetrating chlorides is the dominant deterioration mechanism. Condition assessment based on frequently performed chloride profiling can be useful to identify the extent and evolution of chloride ingress. This could prove to be more economical than extensive repairs, especially for important infrastructure facilities. Currently the most common procedure for determining the chloride content is wet chemical analysis with standard resolution of 10 mm. The heterogeneity is not considered. LIBS is an economical alternative for determining the chloride content at depth intervals of 1 mm or less. It provides 2D distributions of multiple elements and can locate spots with higher concentrations. The results are directly correlated to the mass of binder and can also be performed on-site with a mobile LIBS-System. The application of a LIBS-system is presented. Calibration is required for quantitative analysis. Concrete cores were drilled, sliced and analyzed to determine the 2D-distribution of harmful elements. By comparing the chloride ingress and the carbonation, the interaction of both processes can be visualized in a measurement that takes less than 10 minutes for a 50 mm x 100 mm drill core. A leaflet on the use of LIBS for the chloride ingress assessment has been completed.

T1 - On-line hyphenation of capillary electrophoresis with multicollector-ICP-MS (CE/MC-ICP-MS) for species-specific isotope ratio analysis of sulfur species N2 - In many scientific fields, isotopic analysis can offer valuable information, e.g., for tracing the origin of food products, environmental contaminants, forensic and archaeological samples (provenance determination), for age determination of minerals (geochronological dating) or for elucidating chemical processes. Up to date, typically bulk analysis is aimed at measuring the isotopic composition of the entire elemental content of the sample. However, the analyte element is usually present under the form of different elemental species. Thus, separating species of interest from one another and from matrix components prior to isotope ratio measurements can provide species-specific isotopic information, which could be used for tracing the origin of environmental pollutants and elucidation of (environmental) speciation. Using on-line hyphenations of separation techniques with multicollector-ICP-MS (MC-ICP-MS) can save time and effort and enables the analysis of different species during a single measurement. In this work, we developed an on-line hyphenation of CE with multicollector-ICP-MS (CE/MC-ICP-MS) for isotopic analysis of sulfur species. With this method, the isotopic composition of sulfur in sulfate originating from river water could be analyzed without sample preparation. The results were compared with data from off-line analysis of the same samples to ensure accuracy. The precision of the results of the on-line measurements was high enough to distinguish the rivers from one another by the isotopic signature of the river water sulfate. Next to environmental applications, a current field is species-specific isotopic analysis of biomolecules, as sulfur is the only covalently bound constituent of proteins which can be analyzed by MC-ICP-MS. Data analysis of transient signals in terms of isotope ratio determination is further issue - we developed a small free accessible App allowing for fast data analysis taking relevant aspects (e.g., mass bias correction, peak picking, …) into account.

The group of ergot alkaloids plays a special role in human history. Several tens of thousands of deaths during the middle ages caused by to ergotism (the disease caused by continuous intake of ergot alkaloid contaminated food) underscore the importance of reliable analytical methods to ensure food safety. More than 50 compounds belong to the group of ergot alkaloids. The 12 most found structures – the major ergot alkaloids – are typically measured, when it comes to ergot alkaloid quantification. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a fluorescence detector (FLD) is typically used to quantify the ergot alkaloid content. The main disadvantage of this method are the high costs for calibration standards (12 different calibration substances are required). But also the time and effort required for the analysis of 12 peaks and overlapping signals that occur in complex food samples such as bread. As all ergot alkaloids share the ergoline structure and just differ in the substituents attached to this backbone, measurement of all ergot alkaloids in one sum parameter presents a time and cost saving alternative. The most important step for the development of such a sum parameter method is the reaction used to transfer all ergot alkaloids to one uniform structure. In the talk two promising reactions, the acidic esterification to lysergic acid methyl ester and hydrazinolysis to lysergic acid hydrazide, are examined for possible use in a routine analysis method. In addition to yield and reaction rate, factor such as the handling of the reaction and the possibility of parallelization play a role. Next to the current status of the ongoing research project, in this talk, current approaches to ergot alkaloid quantitation will be discussed.

In dispersive media, extracting the bulk wave velocity from a received signal is challenging as the waveform changes along its path of propagation. When using signal features such as the first peak or the envelope maximum, the calculated velocity changes with the propagation distance. This does not occur when picking the signal onset. Borrowing from seismology, researchers used the Akaike information criterion (AIC) picker to automatically obtain onset times. In addition to being dependent on arbitrarily set parameters, the AIC picker assumes no prior knowledge of the spectral properties of the signal. This is unnecessary in ultrasonic through-transmission testing, where the signal spectrum is known to differ significantly from noise. In this contribution, a novel parameter-free onset picker is proposed, that is based on a spectral entropy criterion (SEC) to model the signal using the AIC framework. Synthetic and experimental data are used to compare the performance of SEC and AIC pickers, showing an improved accuracy for densely sampled data.

Structural Health Monitoring - SHM) mit Ultraschallwellen ist die Charakterisierung von Schäden in Bauteilen. In vielen schalenförmigen Bauteilen, wie zum Beispiel Rohrleitungen, Laminaten und Platten, breitet sich der Ultraschall in Form geführter Wellen aus. Zwar erlauben geführte Wellen eine großflächige Prüfung durch das langsame Abklingen der Wellen. Jedoch breiten sich die Wellen in verschiedenen dispersiven Moden aus, was die Analyse der vom Schaden erzeugten Reflexionen erschwert. Eine Möglichkeit, die Messsignale zu interpretieren, um Schäden zu charakterisieren, ist der direkte Vergleich mit einem Simulationsmodell. Die Rekonstruktion des Schadens stellt ein inverses Problem dar. Das inverse Problem kann als Optimierungsproblem formuliert werden. Für die Optimierung werden mehrere Vorwärtsrechnungen gebraucht, um das Schadensmodell an die Messdaten anzupassen. Aufgrund der kurzen Wellenlängen von Ultraschallwellen sind klassische Methoden für die Vorwärtsrechnung, wie z.B. die Finite Elemente Methode (FEM), rechenintensiv. Eine Möglichkeit den Rechenaufwand zu reduzieren, bietet die Approximation der Wellenausbreitung mittels der semi-analytischen Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method (SBFEM). Frühere Untersuchungen haben gezeigt, dass die benötigten Freiheitsgrade im Vergleich zur FEM wesentlich geringer sind [1]. Im Beitrag wird eine Optimierung basierend auf einem Gradientenverfahren in Kombination mit der SBFEM vorgestellt und an verschiedenen Schadenstypen in 2D-Querschnittsmodellen von Stahlplatten getestet. Der Gradient des Vorwärtsmodells wird durch Algorithmisches Differenzieren berechnet, wodurch eine genaue und schnelle Optimierung ermöglicht wird. Es werden Untersuchungen zum inversen Problem und das Finden einer geeigneten Zielfunktion präsentiert. Es wird verdeutlicht, dass der entwickelte Algorithmus robust gegenüber von Rauscheinflüssen ist. In diesen Untersuchungen werden zunächst „Messdaten“ aus unabhängigen Simulationen verwendet [2]. Erste Schritte für die experimentelle Validierung und Erweiterung auf 3D Modelle werden anschließend vorgestellt.

Material research and testing holds a plethora of AI-based applications, for example, for the automatized search and synthesis of new materials, the detection of materials defects, or the prediction of process and materials parameters (inverse problems). However, AI algorithms can often only be as good as the training data from which the corresponding models are learned. Therefore, it is also indispensable to develop measures for the standardization and quality assurance of such data. For this purpose, we develop and implement methods from transferring data from various sources into a homogeneous data repository with uniform data descriptions. Through the standardization and corresponding machine-readable interfaces, research data can be made usable and reusable for further data analyses. In addition to the technical implementation of integrative platforms, it is crucial that quality-assured research data management is recognized and implemented as an integral part of daily scientific work. Finally, we provide a vision of how the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing can benefit from data-driven AI systems. We discuss early applications and take a peek at future research.

Currently, a wide variety of metaproteomic workflows is available, yet their impact on the results remains to be thoroughly assessed. Here, we carried out the first community-driven, multi-lab comparison in metaproteomics: the critical assessment of metaproteome investigation (CAMPI) study. Based on well-established workflows, we evaluated the influence of sample preparation, mass spectrometry acquisition, and bioinformatic analysis using two samples: a simplified, lab-assembled human intestinal model and a human fecal sample. Although bioinformatic pipelines contributed to variability in peptide identification, wet-lab workflows were the most important source of differences between analyses. Overall, these peptide-level differences largely disappeared at the protein group level. Differences were observed between peptide- and protein-centric approaches for the predicted community composition but similar functional profiles were found across workflows. The CAMPI findings demonstrate the robustness of current metaproteomics research and provide a perspective for future benchmarking studies.

T1 - Cathodoluminescence Spectroscopy of Silicon Nanoparticles N2 - The fabrication of nanostructures with ever-decreasing sizes has increased the demand of suitable characterization methods which allow to determine their shape and size at the true nanoscale, and similarly important, enable the investigation of their optical properties beyond the diffraction limit. Due to its high spectral and spatial resolution down to the (sub-) nanometer range, electron beam-based techniques, namely cathodoluminescence (CL) has become a powerful characterization tool, particularly to study plasmonic and dielectric nanostructures. However, the interpretation of the resulting spectral CL maps is not always unambiguously straightforward. In this work, Mie resonances in single Si nanospheres of different sizes have been systematically studied, using experimental CL spectroscopy and an analytical CL model. For smaller spheres (r ~ 75 nm), the eigenmodes can be unequivocally identified, with relative changes in intensity of the electric and magnetic dipole depending on the electron beam position within the sphere. However, in larger spheres (r ~ 105 nm), the modal assignment becomes increasingly difficult due to a larger number of Mie modes in the visible spectral range. Additionally, penetrating electron beams generate two radiating dipoles at the two Si interfaces – due to the electron and its image charge collapsing at those interfaces – which can, depending on the electron beam’s velocity and its path length inside the particle, produce distinct resonances or dips (constructive or destructive interference of those two radiative dipoles). It is demonstrated that superimposed on the eigenmodes of the studied nanospheres, these resonances can distort the recorded spectrum and lead to potentially erroneous assignment of modal characters to the spectral features. An intuitive analogy is developed to unambiguously distinguish those resonance induced by transition radiation from the nanoparticle-specific Mie resonances.

However, there is little evidence of dust-derived P-containing minerals in soils. Here we studied P forms along a well-described climatic gradient on Hawaii, which is also a dust deposition gradient. Soil mineralogy and soil P forms from six sites along the climatic gradient were analyzed with bulk (X-ray diffraction and P K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure) and microscale (X-ray fluorescence, P K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure, and Raman) analysis methods. In the wettest soils, apatite grains ranging from 5 to 30 μm in size were co-located at the micro-scale with quartz, a known continental dust indicator suggesting recent atmospheric deposition. In addition to colocation with quartz, further evidence of dust-derived P included backward trajectory modeling indicating that dust particles could be brought to Hawaii from the major global dust-loading areas in central Asia and northern Africa. Although it is not certain whether the individual observed apatite grains were derived from long-distance transport of dust, or from local dust sources such as volcanic ash or windblown fertilizer, these observations offer direct evidence that P-containing minerals have reached surface layers of highly-weathered grassland soils through atmospheric deposition.

A1 - Kornev, R. A. A1 - Veiko, V. P. T1 - Molecule formation in reactive LIBS plasmas: model and experiment N2 - Formation and detection of molecules in laser induced plasmas (LIP) is a hot topic. In analytical plasmas like LIBS, the detection of molecules is important for identification of geological and other materials, analysis of isotopes and difficult elements (Cl, F, etc.) via molecular emission. In chemical plasmas, like PECVD (plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) or PLD (pulsed laser deposition), molecules formed in the plasma determine a composition and a thickness of deposits. Similarly, molecules play an important role in microstructuring and oxidizing metal surfaces by laser ablation. It is unfortunate that different communities, which utilize plasma methods and seek for solutions of similar problems, do not strongly overlap, and do not fully use knowledge accumulated by each other. In this presentation, mechanisms of formation of molecules will be analyzed on the example of LIPs used for chemical vapor deposition and metal microstructuring. Theoretical analysis includes equilibrium chemistry calculations combined with plasma hydrodynamics. First, LIP excited in a gas mixture of BCl3 or BF3 with H2 or CH4 will be analyzed; this chemical system is used for obtaining deposits of refractory solid boron and boron carbide. Second, a breakdown in the SiF4 + SiCl4 gas mixtures will be described; this method allows synthesis of fluorochlorosilanes SiFxCl4-x (x = 1, 2, 3), the good etching agents (Figure). Third, solid ablation of Mo in BF3+H2 and Ti in air will be considered aimed at obtaining deposits of high hardness MoxBy and films of TixOy on textured Ti surfaces, correspondingly. In experiment, reaction gases before and after laser illumination, and solid deposits are analyzed by optical emission spectroscopy (OES), IR and mass spectrometry (MS), SEM, X-ray, and AFM. It will be shown that the hydrodynamic-chemical model adequately predicts the composition of LIPs, zones of molecular formation, dependence on reactant stoichiometry, plasma temperature and pressure.

They release heat and generate charge carriers, which leads to two effects. The first effect is the generation of acoustic waves due to heat release, known as the thermoacoustic effect, and the second effect is the perturbation of the resting fluid provoked by the release of charge carriers, called “ionic wind”. The direct connection between the charge carrier production of the discharge arrangement and the surroundings also allows the detection of acoustic waves by tracking the electrical current of the arrangement. This contribution introduces a multi-fluid model approach to describe the acoustic interaction of atmospheric plasmas. In addition, we present experimental results on commercially available and in-house fabricated discharge arrangements for either emitting or receiving acoustic waves. T2 - DAGA 2020 - 46.

If laser powder bed fusion is used to produce components, the complexity level increases because meso-structures (e.g., overhanging features, surface and internal defects) gain importance. Furthermore, if the main advantage of additive manufacturing, i.e., the freedom of design, is to be fully exploited, and geometrically complex structures, such as lattices, are manufactured, then such structures become meta-materials. This means that the geometry and the materials properties become equally important. This matryoshka-like (more literary than the dry “multi-scale”) complexity makes the characterization of the residual stress fields by means of diffraction methods so difficult with the current means, that new paradigms are necessary to tackle the challenge. Indeed, classic open problems acquire an extra layer of difficulty, such that new solutions need to be found and the sometimes-dormant debate needs to be re-opened. Examples include the determination of: a- the unstrained reference: this reference can become location-dependent and needs to be carefully determined; b- the so-called diffraction elastic constants, which becomes immensely challenging since even the single-crystal elastic constants are not known for additively manufactured materials. On top of this, other problems arise. The determination of the principal axes of stress becomes non-trivial because the hatching strategy sometimes dominates over the sample geometry. Even further, in complex structures, such as lattices, the textbook statement that the strain measurement in six independent directions uniquely identifies the strain tensor becomes simply invalid. The peculiar surface features of additively manufactured materials transform trivial tasks into formidable challenges: the precise alignment of a specimen in a beam or the determination of surface stresses with laboratory X-rays need to be thoroughly re-discussed and lay far from being routine tasks. In this paper, we will show a few examples of the cases mentioned above. We will demonstrate that sometimes the classic approach works very well, but other times surprising conclusions can be drawn from in-depth studies of the residual stress in additively manufactured materials. In short, we predicate that classic methods cannot be used on additively manufactured materials and structures without a critical evaluation of their validity and application range.

In this study, we use machine learning for simultaneous measurements of temperature and humidity in polyimide (PI)-coated optical fibers based on Brillouin Brillouin optical frequency domain analysis (BOFDA). Different non-linear machine learning algorithms are employed, namely polynomial regression, decision trees and artificial neural networks (ANNs), and their discrimination performance is benchmarked against that of the conventional linear regression. The performance is evaluated using leave-one-out cross-validation to ensure that the models are reliable and able to generalize well on new data. We show that nonlinear machine learning algorithms outperform the conventional linear regression and thus could pave the way towards simultaneous cost-effective temperature and humidity distributed sensing, which has the potential to find attractive new applications in the field of civil and geotechnical engineering, from structural health monitoring of dikes and bridges to subsea cables and long pipelines corrosion detection.

These materials struggle with toxicity or limited mineral resources, making them expensive. Therefore, eco-friendly, sustainable, and low-cost alternatives are researched for in recent years. A series of organic compounds were investigated as electrode materials for alkali-ion batteries. Among them organic carbonyl-based materials show reversible storage of lithium- or sodium-ions. Metal terephthalates stand out with their easy synthesis, moderate operational voltage and enhanced dissolution stability compared to other organic compounds. One degradation pathway consists of the dissolution of the electrode material by HF, formed in a side reaction by water and the fluorous electrolyte. Fluorinated metal terephthalates could offer higher dissolution stability against HF and less contamination by water due to their increased hydrophobicity. The goal of this project is the synthesis and the investigation of the formation mechanism of a series of calcium-based MOFs with increasing fluorine content. For this purpose, we aimed for the construction of calcium-based MOFs with terephthalic acid (H2-pBDC), 2-fluoro-terephthalic acid (H2-2F-pBDC), 2,3,4,5-tetrafluoroterephthalic acid (H2-pBDC-F4), isophthalic acid (H2-mBDC) and 5-fluoro-isophthalic acid (H2-5F-mBDC).

Data sheets of various manufacturers contain information about some parameters important for the performance of transducers, but this information is not standardized, so that a comparison between probes of different manufacturers is difficult. Therefore, the German Society for Non-Destructive Testing (DGZfP) is working on a guideline to characterization of air-coupled probes. One of the topics in this guideline is the application of thermoacoustic transducers for the characterization of receivers and another topic is the application of microphones for the characterization of transmitters. In this presentation we compare various characterization methods with the particular focus on the characterization of thermoacoustic transducers using an optical microphone. Both thermoacoustic transmitters and optical microphones have a very large bandwidth compared to conventional air-coupled transducers, but their spectrum is not entirely linear, which needs to be taken into account if they are applied as reference transducers.

A1 - Serrano Munoz, Itziar T1 - The combined use of X-ray refraction and trans-mission radiography and computed tomography N2 - Alternative to conventional transmission-based radiography and computed tomography, X-ray refraction techniques are being increasingly used to detect damage in light materials. In fact, their range of application has been recently extended even to metals. The big advantage of X-ray refraction techniques is that they are able to detect nanometric defects, whose size would lie below the resolution of even state-of-the-art synchrotron-based X-ray computed tomography (SXCT). The superiority of synchrotron X-ray refraction radiography and tomography (SXRR and SXRCT) has been shown in the case of light materials, in particular composites. X-ray refraction techniques also yield a quantitifaction of the amount of damage (the so-called relative internal specific surface) and can well be compared with damage models. At the same time, it is impossible for SXRR and SXRCT to image single defects. We show that the combination of refraction- and transmission-based imaging techniques yields an impressive amount of additional information about the type and amount of defects in microstructured materials such as additively manufactured metals or metal matrix composites. We also show that the use of data fusion techniques allows the classification of defects in statistically significant representative volume elements.

T1 - Modeling Equilibrium Chemistry in Laser Induced Plasmas and Plasma Chemical Reactors N2 - A brief introduction will be given on modeling chemical reactions in laser induced plasmas using stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric approaches. Several applications will be considered, which can benefit from such modeling. Those include plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), surface modification and surface coating, and molecular analysis by LIBS. Each application will be illustrated by simulations of relevant chemical systems. For PECVD, chemical systems are BCl3/H2/Ar, BF3/H2/Ar, BCl3/BF3, Mo/BF3/H2; for surface modification/coating it is Ti/air; for molecular LIBS they are CaCO3/Ar, Ca(OH)2/Ar, and CaCl2/Ar. Advantages and shortcomings of equilibrium chemical hydrodynamic models of laser induced plasmas will be discussed.

T1 - Plasma Fundamentals and Diagnostics N2 - This course will provide an introduction to plasma diagnostic techniques. The major focus of the course will be on the discussions of the practical procedures as well as the underlying physical principles for the measurements of plasma fundamental characteristics (e.g., temperatures and electron number density). Particular emphasis will be placed on laser induced plasma–atomic emission spectrometry, but other analytical plasmas will also be used as examples when appropriate. Selected examples on how one can manipulate the operating conditions of the plasma source, based on the results of plasma diagnostic measurements, to improve its performance used for spectrochemical analysis will also be covered. Topics to be covered include thermal equilibrium, line profiles, temperatures, electron densities, excitation processes, temporal and spatial resolution.

An external magnetic field is applied in part of the system such that it permeates the channel and is characterized by a spatially varying magnetic field, i.e., the gradient of the magnetic field is nonzero. The beads are superparamagnetic; hence they can reach high level of magnetization in the presence of a magnetic field, and this magnetization disappears when the field is zero. Therein lies the attractiveness of these microbeads and the potential for applications because their motion can be controlled using an external magnetic field. The motion is governed by several factors, including the magnetic force acting on microbeads (particles), the drag force due to viscosity, the interaction between particles and the fluid, as well as the interaction between particles themselves. For a single particle case, the trajectory of the motion is determined by balancing the drag and magnetic forces acting on the particle, a calculation that in general requires numerical integration. For a system consisting of an ensemble of interacting particles, several regimes of motion dominated by one of the factors are identified. Of particular interest are the systems dominated by the large number of particles in the ensemble, i.e., high particle concentration, in which cases the wake influences the flow downstream. This effect is qualitatively investigated by considering the Navier-Stokes equation with and without the magnetic force contribution.

In-service inspection, maintenance and refurbishment of the heavily stressed parts is necessary to ensure both safety and efficiency, e.g. based on immersion ultrasound testing (UT). In the course of NDE 4.0, the European project MRO 2.0 aims to innovate the maintenance, repair and overhaul of turbine blades by linking these with modern digital methods. For this, the goal of this project is to go beyond conventional automated and manual UT testing techniques. The aim is to measure the actual geometry and wall thickness of the complex shaped parts by applying an adaptive TFM that takes into account the refraction of the ultrasonic waves at the transition from the coupling material (water) to the inspected part (steel). In this setup the phased array probe is held by a robotic arm that allows the part to be scanned while remaining mainly perpendicular to the inspected surface. In this way, even complex geometries can be inspected and a 3D model of the actual condition of the part can be created. The laboratory setup is equipped with a Vantage 64 phased array instrument from Verasonics Inc. and an industrial robot from ABB. A 64 element linear array probe operating at 10 MHz is attached to the robot. The focus is on optimizing resolution, reliability and inspection speed, as the reconstructed model will be fed to the digital twin at a later stage of the project and used for targeted repairs. In addition to enhancing the reconstruction algorithms, required probe geometry and the parameters needed to inspect turbine blades with partially thin walls and anisotropic materials will also be investigated. This talk will describe the 3-year project and present the results of the first year. The main focus will be on the development of the reconstruction algorithms used and the experimental setup.

T1 - Deposition of Titanium Oxides by Nanosecond Laser Ablation: Simulation and Experiment N2 - Surface modification of titanium by laser ablation is investigated theoretically and experimentally.

T1 - Synthesis of SiO2 Nanoparticles as reference materials: Metrological measurements and in-situ kinetics in lab with Small Angle X-Ray Scattering N2 - The unambiguous correlation of possible health and sustainability risks to nanoparticle size must be enabled by reliable measurement of nanoparticle size, to ensure comparability and compatibility between results measured under different methods. The NPSIZE project funded by European Metrology Program (EMPIR) develop methods, reference materials and modelling to improve the traceability chain, comparability and compatibility of nanoparticle size measurements. In this work, we present how spherical silica nanoparticles are synthetized with controlled monomodal or bimodal dispersion to be use as reference materials and international round-robin. Improving the fabrication requires a fine understanding of synthesis (1), coupled with an expertise of in-situ or ex-situ analysis methods. This is a new challenge for the analysis : determining not only average characteristics (size, chemical composition and shape ...) but also the concentration and the distribution over the population studied (2). Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (3) allows very precise measurements of the nanoparticles size and concentration that can be directly link to the metric system (4) (metrological traceability) . We developed a SAXS laboratory instrument dedicated to the in-situ characterization of nanoparticles, which enable fast measurements, and the monitoring of the synthesis parameters. Measurement protocols and software processing chain (5) (i.e. size distribution) are also combined & optimized.

Many factors have been cited as responsible for microbial growth, like the presence of water in the storage tanks. Indeed, only 1 % water in a storage system is enough for the growth of microorganisms like bacteria or yeasts, as well as for the development of fungal biomass at the oil/water interface.1 In this work, a rapid test for the accurate determination of genomic DNA from aqueous fuel extracts is presented. The detection is based on the employment of polystyrene-mesoporous silica core-shell particles, on which modified fluorescent molecular beacons are covalently grafted. Those beacons incorporate in the hairpin loop a target sequence highly conserved in all bacteria, corresponding to a fragment of the 16S ribosomal RNA subunit. The designed single-stranded molecular beacon contained fluorescein as an internal indicator and a quencher in its proximity when not hybridized. Upon hybridization in presence of the target sequence, the indicator and the quencher are spatially separated, resulting in fluorescence enhancement. To perform the assay the designed particles were disposed on different glass fiber strips to try to achieve a portable and sensitive rapid test. Assays showed that presence of genomic DNA extracts from bacteria down to 50–70 μg L-1 induces a fluorescence response. The optical read-out was adapted for on-site monitoring by adapting a 3D-printed case on a conventional smartphone, taking advantages of the CMOS detector sensitivity.2 Such embedded assembly allowed to detect genomic DNA in aqueous extracts down to the mg L-1 range and presents an interesting step toward on-site monitoring of fuel contamination.
