An observation of the fracture process in front of the crack tip inside a dentin sample by means of ex-situ X-ray computed tomography after uniaxial compression at different deformation values was carried out in this work. This ex-situ approach allowed the microstructure and fracturing process of human dentin to be observed during loading. No cracks are observed up to the middle part of the irreversible deformation in the samples at least visible at 0.4μm resolution. First cracks appeared before the mechanical stress reached the compression strength. The growth of the cracks is realized by connecting the main cracks with satellite cracks that lie ahead of the main crack tip and parallel its trajectory. When under the stress load the deformation in the sample exceeds the deformation at the compression strength of dentin, an appearance of micro-cracks in front of the main cracks is observed. The micro-cracks are inclined (~60°) to the trajectory of the main cracks. The further growth of the main cracks is not realized due to the junction with the micro-cracks; we assume that the micro-cracks dissipate the energy of the main crack and suppressed its growth. These micro-cracks serve as additional stress accommodations, therefore the samples do not break apart after the compression test, as it is usually observed under bending and tension tests.
AbstractHigh-strength aluminum alloys used in aerospace and automotive applications obtain their strength through precipitation hardening. Achieving the desired mechanical properties requires precise control over the nanometer-sized precipitates. However, the microstructure of these alloys changes over time due to aging, leading to a deterioration in strength. Typically, the size, number, and distribution of precipitates for a quantitative assessment of microstructural changes are determined by manual analysis, which is subjective and time-consuming. In our work, we introduce a progressive and automatable approach that enables a more efficient, objective, and reproducible analysis of precipitates. The method involves several sequential steps using an image repository containing dark-field transmission electron microscopy (DF-TEM) images depicting various aging states of an aluminum alloy. During the process, precipitation contours are generated and quantitatively evaluated, and the results are comprehensibly transferred into semantic data structures. The use and deployment of Jupyter Notebooks, along with the beneficial implementation of Semantic Web technologies, significantly enhances the reproducibility and comparability of the findings. This work serves as an exemplar of FAIR image and research data management.
A semi-automatic thermographic procedure for the assessment of the welded area of resistance projection welded joints has been developed. Currently, to assess the quality of RPW joints destructive tests are used and the more commonly used non-destructive technique is the ultrasonic one. The possibility for a quantitative evaluation of the welded area by thermographic technique has been proved by means of an innovative procedure applied on steel RPW joints with ‘as it’ surface conditions. Measurements obtained by thermography and ultrasound have been compared, to verify the developed procedure.
In this work, the thermal properties of ternary Li₃ₓCo₇₋₄ₓSb₂₊ₓO₁₂ solid solutions are studied for different concentrations in the range 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.7. Samples are elaborated at four different sintering temperatures: 1100, 1150, 1200 and 1250 °C. The effect of increasing the content of Li⁺ and Sb⁵⁺, accompanied by the reduction of Co²⁺, on the thermal properties is studied. It is shown that a thermal diffusivity gap, which is more pronounced for low values of x, can be triggered at a certain threshold sintering temperature (around 1150 °C in this study). This effect is explained by the increase of contact area between adjacent grains. Nevertheless, this effect is found to be less pronounced in the thermal conductivity. Moreover, a new framework for heat diffusion in solids is presented that establishes that both the heat flux and the thermal energy (or heat) satisfy a diffusion equation and therefore highlights the importance of thermal diffusivity in transient heat conduction phenomena.

Laser powder bed fusion of metallic components (PBF-LB/M) is gaining acceptance in industry. However, the high costs and lengthy qualification processes required for printed components create the need for more effective in-situ monitoring and testing methods. This article proposes multispectral Optical Tomography (OT) as a new approach for monitoring the PBF-LB/M process. Compared to other methods, OT is a low-cost process monitoring method that uses long-time exposure imaging to observe the build process. However, it lacks time resolution compared to expensive thermographic sensor systems. Monochromatic OT (1C-OT) is already commercially available and observes the building process layer-wise using a single wavelength window in the NIR range. Multispectral OT (nC-OT) utilizes a similar setup but can measure multiple wavelength ranges per location simultaneously. By comparing the classical 1C-OT and nC-OT approaches, this article examines the advantages of nC-OT (two channel OT and RGB-OT) in reducing the false positive rate for process deviations and approximating maximum temperatures for a better comparison between different build processes and materials. This could ultimately reduce costs and time for part qualification. The main goal of this contribution is to assess the advantages of nC-OT compared to 1C-OT for in-situ process monitoring of PBF-LB/M.
To evaluate the durability of new alternative cement compositions, it is important to examine the internal transport of moisture through these materials. For this purpose, mortars were prepared from different types of cement and capillary suction experiments were carried out. The moisture transport was studied with an NMR tomograph and compared with weight easurements. With the tomograph, the total moisture input could be determined, as well as the moisture content within the samples non-destructively and spatially resolved. This allows precise observation of the moisture fronts. The tomograph was also used to determine the capillary transport
coefficient.

Laser powder bed fusion is one of the most promising additive manufacturing techniques for printing complex-shaped metal components. However, the formation of subsurface porosity poses a significant risk to the service lifetime of the printed parts. In-situ monitoring offers the possibility to detect porosity already during manufacturing. Thereby, process feedback control or a manual process interruption to cut financial losses is enabled.
Short-wave infrared thermography can monitor the thermal history of manufactured parts which is closely connected to the probability of porosity formation. Artificial intelligence methods are increasingly used for porosity prediction from the obtained large amounts of complex monitoring data. In this study, we aim to identify the potential and the challenges of deep-learning-assisted porosity prediction based on thermographic in-situ monitoring.
Therefore, the porosity prediction task is studied in detail using an exemplary dataset from the manufacturing of two Haynes282 cuboid components. Our trained 1D convolutional neural network model shows high performance (R2 score of 0.90) for the prediction of local porosity in discrete sub-volumes with dimensions of (700 x 700 x 40) μm³.
It could be demonstrated that the regressor correctly predicts layer-wise porosity changes but presumably has limited capability to predict differences in local porosity. Furthermore, there is a need to study the significance of the used thermogram feature inputs to streamline the model and to adjust the monitoring hardware. Moreover, we identified multiple sources of data uncertainty resulting from the in-situ monitoring setup, the registration with the ground truth X-ray-computed tomography data and the used pre-processing workflow that might influence the model’s performance detrimentally.
In the event of moisture deterioration, rapid detection and localization is particularly important to prevent further deterioration and costs. For building floors, the layered structure poses a challenging obstacle for most moisture measurement methods. But especially here, layer-specific information on the depth of the water is crucial for efficient and effective repairs. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) shows the potential to generate such depth information. Therefore, the present work investigates the suitability of GPR in combination with machine learning methods for the automated classification of the typical deterioration cases (i) dry, (ii) wet insulation, and (iii) wet screed.
First, a literature review was conducted to identify the most common methods for detecting moisture in building materials using GPR. Here, it especially became clear that all publications only investigated individual time-, amplitude- or frequency features separately, without combining them. This was seen as a potential aspect for innovation, as the multivariate application of several signal features can help to overcome individual weaknesses and limitations.
Preliminary investigations carried out on drying screed samples confirmed the profitable use of multivariate evaluations. In addition to the general suitability and dependencies of various features, first limitations due to possible interference between the direct wave and the reflection wave could be identified. This is particularly evident with thin or dry materials, for which the two-way travel times of the reflected radar signals become shorter.
An extensive laboratory experiment was carried out, for which a modular test specimen was designed to enable the variation of the material type and thickness of screed and insulation, as well as the simulation of moisture deteriorations. The data collected revealed clear differences between dry and deteriored structures within measured B-scans. These deviations were to be detected with the newly introduced B-scan features, which evaluate the statistical deviation of A-scan features within a survey line. In this way, deteriorations to unknown floor structures are recognized, regardless of the material parameters present. In a subsequent training and cross-validation process of different classifiers, accuracies of over 88 \% of the 504 recorded measurements (252 different experimental setups) were achieved. For that, the combination of amplitude and frequency features, which covered all relevant reflections of the radar signals, was particularly beneficial. Furthermore, the data set showed only small differences between dry floors and deteriored screeds for the B-scan features, which could be attributed to a homogeneous distribution of the added water in the screeds. The successfully separation of these similar feature distributions raised the suspicion of overfitting, which was examined in more detail by means of a validation with on-site data.
For this purpose, investigations were carried out at five different locations in Germany, using the identical measurement method like in the laboratory. By extracting drilling cores, it was possible to determine the deterioration case for each measurement point and thus generate a corresponding reference. However, numerous data had to be sorted out before classification, since disturbances due to underfloor heating, screed reinforcements, steel beams or missing insulation prevented comparability with the laboratory experiments. Validation of the remaining data (72 B-scans) achieved only low accuracy with 53 \% correctly classified deterioration cases. Here, the previously suspected overfitting of the small decision boundary between dry setups and deteriored screeds within the laboratory proved to be a problem. The generally larger deviations within (also dry) on-site B-scans were thus frequently misclassified as screed deterioration. In addition, there were sometimes strongly varying layer thicknesses or changing cases of deterioration within a survey line, which caused additional errors due to the local limitation of the drilling core reference. Nevertheless, individual on-site examples also showed the promising potential of the applied signal features and the GPR method in general, which partly allowed a profound interpretation of the measurements. However, this interpretation still requires the experience of trained personnel and could not be automated using machine learning with the available database. Nevertheless, such experience and knowledge can be enriched by the findings of this work, which provide the basis for further research.
Future work should aim at building an open GPR data base of on-site moisture measurements on floors to provide a meaningful basis for applying machine learning. Here, referencing is a crucial point, whose limitations with respect to the moisture present and its distribution can easily reduce the potential of such efforts. The combination of several reference methods might help to overcome such limitations. Similarly, a focus on monitoring approaches can also help to reduce numerous unknown variables in moisture measurements and increase confidence in the detection of different deterioration cases.
LIBS‐ConSort: Development of a sensor‐based sorting method for construction and demolition waste
(2023)
AbstractA joint project of partners from industry and research institutions approaches the challenge of construction and demolition waste (CDW) sorting by investigating and testing the combination of laser‐induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) with near‐infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and visual imaging. 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‐cotaining 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.The objective of this paper is to present current progress and results of the test stand development combining LIBS with NIR spectroscopy and visual imaging. In the future, this laboratory prototype will serve as a fully automated measurement setup to allow real‐time classification of CDW on a conveyor belt.
This data article introduces a dataset comprising 1630 alkali-activated concrete (AAC) mixes, compiled from 106 literature sources. The dataset underwent extensive curation to address feature redundancy, transcription errors, and duplicate data, yielding refined data ready for further data-driven science in the field of AAC, where this effort constitutes a novelty. The carbon footprint associated with each material used in the AAC mixes, as well as the corresponding CO2 footprint of every mix, were approximated using two published articles. Serving as a foundation for future expansions and rigorous data applications, this dataset enables the characterization of AAC properties through machine learning algorithms or as a benchmark for performance comparison among different formulations. In summary, the dataset provides a resource for researchers focusing on AAC and related materials and offers insights into the environmental benefits of substituting traditional Portland concrete with AAC.
In recent decades, the number of components in concrete has grown, particularly in formulations aimed at reducing carbon footprints. Innovations include diverse binders, supplementary cementitious materials, activators, concrete admixtures, and recycled aggregates. These developments target not only the enhancement of material properties but also the mitigation of the ecological and economic impacts of concrete — the most extensively used material by humankind. However, these advancements also introduce a greater variability in the composition of raw materials. The material’s behavior is significantly influenced by its nanoscale properties, which can pose challenges in accurate characterization. Consequently, there’s an increasing need for experimental tuning of formulations. This is accompanied by a more inconsistent composition of raw materials, which makes an experimental tuning of formulations more and more necessary. However, the increased complexity in composition presents a challenge in finding the ideal formulation through trial and error. Inverse design (ID) techniques offer a solution to this challenge by allowing for a comprehensive search of the entire design space to create new and improved concrete formulations. In this publication, we introduce the concept of ID and demonstrate how our open-source app “SLAMD” provides all necessary steps of the workflow to adapt it in the laboratory, lowering the application barriers. The intelligent screening process, guided by a predictive model, leads to a more efficient and effective data-driven material design process resulting in reduced carbon footprint and improved material quality while considering socio-economic factors in the materials design.
Large-language models (LLMs) such as GPT-4 caught the interest of many scientists. Recent studies suggested that these models could be useful in chemistry and materials science. To explore these possibilities, we organized a hackathon. This article chronicles the projects built as part of this hackathon. Participants employed LLMs for various applications, including predicting properties of molecules and materials, designing novel interfaces for tools, extracting knowledge from unstructured data, and developing new educational applications. The diverse topics and the fact that working prototypes could be generated in less than two days highlight that LLMs will profoundly impact the future of our fields. The rich collection of ideas and projects also indicates that the applications of LLMs are not limited to materials science and chemistry but offer potential benefits to a wide range of scientific disciplines.
In this paper, we demonstrate the value of 1H NMR relaxometry for studying the hydration of clinker-reduced, more climate-friendly cementitious binders. The results were obtained on typical CEM I cements and sister samples containing two different reactive agricultural ashes as well as non-reactive biochars as supplementary cementitious materials. The findings prove that time-resolved NMR measurements provide valuable additional information when combined with classical heat flow calorimetry.
Asphalt is one of the most common materials used in road construction. It is subject to both chemical and structural aging processes during use. At least to our knowledge, it is not currently known whether these aging processes also lead to a measurable change in the thermal properties of asphalt. If so, these changes could be exploited for non-destructive testing of the aging condition in situ. Photothermal analysis of a component surface involves looking at the time course of the surface temperature during and after pulse-like heating with an expanded laser beam. In the case of concrete surfaces, this method works well under laboratory conditions. It allowed the determination of the thermal effusivity. Now it should be investigated whether the photothermal signal allows conclusions to be made regarding the aging state of the asphalt. Within the scope of this paper, 2 asphalt specimens were investigated: a closed asphalt with 3% void content (SMA 11S) and an open-pore asphalt with 25% void content (PA 8). Both samples were artificially degraded according to a standardized procedure, leaving a portion of the surface unaffected. Subsections from both areas were then separated for photothermal testing. It was found, that the photothermal method is apparently not sensitive enough to detect aging on asphalt in general. However, it is noteworthy that both asphalt types heat up significantly faster than would be expected from the theory of heat conduction, which might be explained by the specific microstructure.
Laser-based active thermography is a contactless non-destructive testing method to detect material defects by heating the object and measuring its temperature increase with an infrared camera. Systematic deviations from predicted behavior provide insight into the inner structure of the object. However, its resolution in resolving internal structures is limited due to the diffusive nature of heat diffusion. Thermographic super resolution (SR) methods aim to overcome this limitation by combining multiple thermographic measurements and mathematical optimization algorithms to improve the defect reconstruction.
Thermographic SR reconstruction methods involve measuring the temperature change in an object under test (OuT) heated with multiple different spatially structured illuminations. Subsequently, these measurements are inputted into a severely ill-posed and heavily regularized inverse problem, producing a sparse map of the OuT’s internal defect structure. Solving this inverse problem relies on limited priors, such as defect-sparsity, and iterative numerical minimization techniques. Previously mostly experimentally limited to one-dimensional regions of interest (ROIs), this thesis aims to extend the method to the reconstruction of two-dimensionalROIs with arbitrary defect distributions while maintaining reasonable experimental complexity. Ultimately, the goal of this thesis is to make the method suitable for a technology transfer to industrial applications by advancing its technology readiness level (TRL).
In order to achieve the aforementioned goal, this thesis discusses the numerical expansion of a thermographic SR reconstruction method and introduces two novel algorithms to invert the underlying inverse problem. Furthermore, a forward solution to the inverse problem in terms of the applied SR reconstruction model is set up. In conjunction with an additionally proposed algorithm for the automated determination of a set of (optimal) regularization parameters, both create the possibility to conduct analytical simulations to characterize the influence of the experimental parameters on the achievable reconstruction quality. On the experimental side, the method is upgraded to deal with two-dimensional ROIs, and multiple measurement campaigns are performed to validate the proposed inversion algorithms, forward solution and two exemplary analytical studies. For the experimental implementation of the method, the use of a laser-coupled DLP-projector is introduced, which allows projecting binary pixel
patterns that cover the whole ROI, reducing the number of necessary measurements per ROI significantly (up to 20x).
Finally, the achieved reconstruction of the internal defect structure of a purpose-made OuT is qualitatively and qualitatively benchmarked against well-established thermographic testing methods based on homogeneous illumination of the ROI. Here, the background-noise-free two-dimensional photothermal SR reconstruction results show to outclass all defect reconstructions by the considered reference methods.
