X‐Ray Computed Tomography

Abstract: X‐ray computed tomography (CT) is a powerful technique for noninvasively characterizing materials. This chapter covers x‐ray computed tomography (CT) in its forms spanning large components (booster rockets) to millimeter‐sized material specimens to micrometer‐sized samples. Emphasis is on contrast produced by differences in x‐ray attenuation, although CT using x‐ray phase contrast, x‐ray fluorescence, or x‐ray diffraction is also covered briefly.

“…X-ray micro-CT is non-destructive allowing reimaging of samples, so-called 4-D X-ray micro-CT (Sheppard et al 2014). For example, it is possible to dynamically image fluid flow into wood and eucalyptus trees (Nolf et al 2017), and the cellular response of wood to applied load (Tao et al 2015). Models of such processes open up new avenues for enhancing student understanding of wood structure and properties, but care needs to be taken to ensure that models are developed with learning objectives in mind and students have the requisite knowledge to understand the models.…”

“…Internal measurement of a variety of physical quantities other than temperature such as stress, chemical composition, morphology, crystal structure, etc. is possible using various measurement methods [21][22][23][24]. For example, internal morphology and chemical composition can be measured using x-ray CT scans [24] that make use of the absorptivity of electromagnetic radiation by different materials.…”
