Strain mapping by non destructive method: Laue microdiffraction

Leaf area estimation by a simple and non-destructive method

In this study, the relation between leaf area and its dimensions was estimated using a non-destructive method. This method is based on this fact that the leaf shape does not change during the growing season. In this method, leaf area during the growing season is estimated based on the dimensions of the smallest leaf in the initial stage of plant growth or at any growth stage by measuring the le...

Real-time microstructure imaging by Laue microdiffraction: A sample application in laser 3D printed Ni-based superalloys

Synchrotron-based Laue microdiffraction has been widely applied to characterize the local crystal structure, orientation, and defects of inhomogeneous polycrystalline solids by raster scanning them under a micro/nano focused polychromatic X-ray probe. In a typical experiment, a large number of Laue diffraction patterns are collected, requiring novel data reduction and analysis approaches, espec...

Semiautomatic determination of orientations and elastic strain from Kossel microdiffraction

The technique of divergent beam X-ray (Kossel) diffraction is being used for determination of local lattice orientations and lattice distortions (elastic strains). The Kossel patterns are recorded in a scanning electron microscope using a digital camera. The advancement in automation of the of the system relies on computerized interpretation of the Kossel patterns. The paper reports on a packag...
