Microstructural changes in porous cordierite for diesel particulate filter applications caused by machining were characterized using microtensile testing and X-ray computed tomography (XCT). Young’s modulus was determined on ~215-380 m thick machined samples by digital image correlation. Results show a decrease of Young’s modulus due to machining of the thin samples. Explanation of this phenomenon was provided by XCT: the presence of debris due to machining and the variation of porosity due to removal of the outer layers were quantified and correlated with the introduction of further microcracking.
The quantification of experimental and data analysis errors is most of the times jeopardised by the presence of surface roughness, waviness, as well as by typical measurement artefacts of the XCT technique (for instance refraction at sharp edges). One way to at least estimate the influence of those factors on dimensional measurements and on tolerances is to simulate them using Monte-Carlo method. An alternative strategy is to use independent knowledge (e.g. CMM data) to smoothen/calibrate/correct XCT data.
XMI-MSIM 5.0
(2014)
XMI-MSIM is an open source tool designed for predicting the spectral response of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometers using Monte-Carlo simulations. It comes with a fully functional graphical user interface in order to make it as user friendly as possible. Considerable effort has been taken to ensure easy installation on all major platforms.
Development of this package was part of my PhD thesis. The algorithms were inspired by the work of my promotor Prof. Laszlo Vincze of Ghent University. Links to his and my own publications can be found in our manual.
A manuscript has been published in Spectrochimica Acta Part B that covers the algorithms that power XMI-MSIM. Please include a reference to this publication in your own work if you decide to use XMI-MSIM for academic purposes.
A second manuscript was published that covers our XMI-MSIM based quantification plug-in for PyMca. Soon information on using this plug-in will be added to the manual.
XMI-MSIM is released under the terms of the GPLv3.
Development occurs at Github: http://github.com/tschoonj/xmimsim
Downloads are hosted by the X-ray Micro-spectroscopy and Imaging research group of Ghent University: http://lvserver.ugent.be/xmi-msim
Version 5.0 release notes:
Changes:
1. Custom detector response function: build a own plug-in containing your own detector response function and load it at run-time to override the builtin routines. Instructions can be found in the manual.
2. Escape peak improvements: new algorithm is used to calculate the escape peak ratios based on a combined brute-force and variance-reduction approach. Ensures high accuracy even at high incoming photon energies and thin detector crystals. Downside: it's slower…
3. Removed maximum convolution energy option. Was a bit confusing anyway.
4. Number of channels: moved from simulation controls into input-file
5. Radionuclide support added: Now you can select one or more commonly used radionuclide sources from the X-ray sources widget.
6. Advanced Compton scattering simulation: a new alternative implementation of the Compton scattering has been implemented based on the work of Fernandez and Scot (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.nimb.2007.04.203), which takes into account unpopulated atomic orbitals. Provides an improved simulation of the Compton profile, as well as fluorescence contributions due to Compton effect (extremely low!), but slows the code down considerably. Advanced users only. Default: OFF
7. Plot spectra before convolution in results
8. Windows: new Inno Setup installers. Contains the headers and import libraries
9. Windows: compilers changed to GCC 4.8.1 (TDM-GCC)
10. Windows: rand_s used to generate seeds on 64-bit version (requires Vista or later)
11. Windows: new gtk runtime for the 64-bit version (see also https://github.com/tschoonj/GTK-for-Windows-Runtime-Environment-Installer)
12. Mac OS X: compilers changed to clang 5.1 (Xcode) and gfortran 4.9.1 (MacPorts)
13. Original input-files from our 2012 publication (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.sab.2012.03.011) added to examples
14. Updater performs checksum verification after download
15. X-ray sources last used values stored in preferences.ini
16. xmimsimdata.h5 modified: even bigger now...
Bugfixes:
1. Windows: support for usernames with unicode characters. Fixed using customized builds of HDF5. Thanks to Takashi Omori of Techno-X for the report!
2. Spectrum import from file fixes. Was never properly tested apparently
Note:
For those that compiled XMI-MSIM from source: you will need to regenerate the xmimsimdata.h5 file with xmimsim-db. Old versions of this file will not work with XMI-MSIM 5.0.
XPS of GR2M
(2022)
This application note presents how EnviroESCA can be used to analyze bacterial samples under near ambient pressure conditions in various states of hydration using different levels of humidity. Such investigations of bacterial cell wall surfaces in their hydrated state are essential for studying biological interfaces at work.
The use of innovative near-ambient pressure (NAP-)XPS instrumentation allows the detailed analysis of irregularly-surfaced biofilms. NAP-XPS enables the surface analysis of bacterial samples in their natural hydrated state without complex sample preparation techniques such as freeze-drying or fast-freezing, which are needed for XPS analysis in ultrahigh vacuum.
Water and aqueous reagents are essential in any biological process or system. But apart from a few special low vapor-pressure cases, liquids have not been accessible to any technique requiring UHV conditions. EnviroESCA opens up this exciting field of applications.
In this paper first results from water based samples are presented as a proof of concept to demonstrate the special capabilities of EnviroESCA analyzing liquid samples. The following solutions were investigated under near ambient pressure conditions: i.) water, ii.) brine, iii.) an oil in water dispersion, iv.) aqueous iron(II) sulfate heptahydrate, and v.) a suspension of nano silver particles in water.
