고무입자로 강인화된 폴리카보네이트의 강인화 메커니즘을 연구하기 위하여 synchrotron X-선을 이용한 소각 X-선 산란법을 이용하여 실시간으로 변형 과정에서의 폴리카보네이트 내의 micro-void의 생성과 성장과정을 조사하였다. 시료는 직경 $0.3{\mu}m$의 가교화된 아크릴 고무입자로 강인화된 폴리카보네이트이며 wedge test 방식으로 시료에 변형을 가하면서 X-선을 조사하여 산란빔의 세기 변화를 살펴보았다. 변형이 증가함에 따라 산란빔의 세기가 증가하며 이는 폴리카보네이트 매트릭스 내의 micro-void의 생성에 의한 것으로 추정된다. 이러한 micro-void는 폴리카보네이트 매트릭스 내부에 생선된 것으로서 이는 고무입자와 매트릭스간의 계면분리 현상이나 고무입자 내부의 cavitation에 의한 void는 아닌 것으로 추정된다. 이 micro-void는 큰 void들과는 달리 특정한 변형 정도에 이르러 일정한 크기를 갖고 생성되기 시작하며 변형 정도가 증가하여도 그 크기는 증가하지 않고 단지 그 양만이 계속적으로 증가함을 알 수 있다.

콘크리트 내부에 존재하는 공극(void)의 공간적 분포는 콘크리트의 역학적, 물리적 거동에 큰 영향을 미친다. 따라서 콘크리트 재료 물성의 파악과 건정성 평가를 위해 내부에 존재하는 공극의 분포 상태를 파악하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 콘크리트에는 육안으로 보이는 재료 표면의 공극 이외에도 내부 공극이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 경량골재 콘크리트의 공극 분포를 파악하기 위하여 micro CT(X-ray microtomography)를 활용하여 생성된 3차원 콘크리트 디지털 시편을 사용하였다. 흑백처리된 단면 이미지를 중첩하여 공극을 묘사할 수 있는 3차원 시편을 생성하였다. 공극의 분포 상태를 확률적으로 묘사하기 위하여 확률 분포 함수 two-point correlation function과 lineal-path function으로 분석하였다. 또한, 이미지 분석을 통해서 콘크리트 시편의 공극의 밀도 분포를 파악하였다. 콘크리트 내부에 있는 개별 경량 골재의 공극도 이미지 처리와 확률 분포함수를 사용하여 분석하였다. Micro CT와 3차원 이미지 분석 방법을 통하여 콘크리트 내부에 존재하는 공극의 분포 상태를 효과적으로 파악할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

보드의 기계적 성질에 영향을 미치는 공극에 대하여 공극을 두가지로 분류하고 밀도에 따른 오에스비의 내부 공극구조의 특성에 대하여 살펴보고자 하였다. 스트랜드보드의 내부공극을 X-ray 단층촬영기로 측정하고 이미지분석 소프트웨어를 사용하여 밀도에 따른 공극의 분포와 공극의 함유량을 조사하였다. 측정 전에 보드의 밀도를 밀도측정기와 전건법으로 측정하였으며 이 두 방법에 의해 측정된 결과는 아주 높은 상관관계를 보여주었다. X-ray를 서로 다른 배율로 조사하여 획득한 이미지를 바탕으로 분석한 결과, 저해상도에서는 스트랜드간의 공극(macro-void)의 측정이 가능하나 스트랜드내의 미세공극(micro-void)은 이미지획득이 불가능하였다. 중해상도에서는 두가지 형태 모두의 이미지 획득이 가능하였고, 고해상도에서는 대부분의 미세공극 이미지의 획득이 가능하였다. 저배율을 채택하여 스트랜드간의 공극을 측정하고 스트랜드내의 미세공극은 관련식을 이용하여 추정하였다. 이를 통해 보드내부에 존재하는 스트랜드간의 공극분포를 파악할 수 있었으며 그 공극의 함유비율을 정확하게 산정할 수 있었다.

In this study, a new methodology by using the X-ray CT scan is proposed for estimating void ratio of very fine clayey soil. Since the particle size of the clay is too fine to calculate the volume of void inside the clays, CT scanning tests with a number of clay specimens that were artificially set to have various designated void ratios have been carried out. From the tests, a relationship between the CT values and void ratios is given to be used for estimating the invisible void ratio of very fine clay from a representative CT value scanned. The linear relationship was able to be acquired finally. It is expected that micro X-ray CT scanning can be capable of capturing the void ratio of very fine soils without any errors inherent in the conventional specific gravity tests.

This paper presents an automated subsurface micro void detection technique based on pulsed infrared thermography for inspecting epoxy molding compounds (EMC) used in electronic device packaging. Subsurface micro voids are first detected and visualized by extracting a lock-in amplitude image from raw thermal images. Binary imaging follows to achieve better visualization of subsurface micro voids. A median filter is then applied for removing sparse noise components. The performance of the proposed technique is tested using 36 EMC samples, which have subsurface (below $150{\mu}m{\sim}300{\mu}m$ from the inspection surface) micro voids ($150{\mu}m{\sim}300{\mu}m$ in diameter). The experimental results show that the subsurface micro voids can be successfully detected without causing any damage to the EMC samples, making it suitable for automated online inspection.

Objectives: The obturation quality of MTA, Biodentine, Total Fill BC root canal sealer (RCS), and warm gutta-percha (WGP) in teeth with simulated internal root resorption (IRR) was evaluated by using micro-computed tomography. Materials and Methods: Standardized IRR cavities were created using 40 extracted maxillary central incisor teeth and randomly assigned into 4 groups (n = 10). IRR cavities were filled with MTA, Biodentine, Total Fill BC RCS (bulk-fill form) and WGP + Total Fill BC RCS. Percentage of voids between resorptive cavity walls and obturation material (external void), and inside the filling materials (internal voids) were measured. Results: Total Fill BC sealer in the bulk-fill form presented significantly highest values of external and internal void percentages (p < 0.05). Biodentine showed a significantly lowest external void percentage (p < 0.05). WGP + Total Fill BC RCS presented significantly lower values of internal void percentages than all groups (p < 0.05), except Biodentine (p > 0.05). Conclusion: None of the filling materials were created void-free obturation in resorption cavities. Biodentine may favor its application in teeth with IRR over Angelus MTA and bulkfill form of Total Fill BC.

PURPOSE. To investigate the void parameters within the resin cements used for fiber post cementation by micro-CT (${\mu}CT$) and regional push-out bonding strength. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Twenty-one, single and round shaped roots were enlarged with a low-speed drill following by endodontic treatment. The roots were divided into three groups (n=7) and fiber posts were cemented with Maxcem Elite, Multilink N and Superbond C&B resin cements. Specimens were scanned using ${\mu}CT$ scanner at resolution of $13.7{\mu}m$. The number, area, and volume of voids between dentin and post were evaluated. A method of analysis based on the post segmentation was used, and coronal, middle and apical thirds considered separately. After the ${\mu}CT$ analysis, roots were embedded in epoxy resin and sectioned into 2 mm thick slices (63 sections in total). Push-out testing was performed with universal testing device at 0.5 mm/min cross-head speed. Data were analyzed with Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests (${\alpha}=.05$). RESULTS. Overall, significant differences between the resin cements and the post level were observed in the void number, area, and volume (P<.05). Super-Bond C&B showed the most void formation ($44.86{\pm}22.71$). Multilink N showed the least void surface ($3.51{\pm}2.24mm^2$) and volume ($0.01{\pm}0.01mm^3$). Regional push-out bond strength of the cements was not different (P>.05). CONCLUSION. ${\mu}CT$ proved to be a powerful non-destructive 3D analysis tool for visualizing the void parameters. Multilink N had the lowest void parameters. When efficiency of all cements was evaluated, direct relationship between the post region and push-out bonding strength was not observed.

During resin transfer molding(RTM) process, in case of thick parts, resin flow and void formation should be modeled three dimensionally even though for parts of small thickness, resin flow and void formation can be modeled two dimensionally. In this study, numerical simulations of three dimensional mold filling and void formation during RTM process.

In resin transfer molding (RTM), resin is forced to flow through the fiber perform of inhomogeneous permeability. This inhomogeneity is responsible for the mismatch of resin velocity within and between the fiber tows. The capillary pressure of the fiber tows exacerbates the spatial variation of the resin velocity. The resulting microscopic perturbations of resin velocity at the flow front allow numerous air voids to form. In this study, a mathematical model was developed to predict the formation and migration of micro-voids during resin transfer molding. A transport equation was employed to account for the migration of voids between fiber tows. Incorporating the proposed model into a resin flow simulator, the volumetric content of micro-voids in the preform could be obtained during the simulation of resin impregnation.

Porous materials such as polymeric foam are widely adopted in engineering and biomedical fields. Porous materials often exhibit complex nonlinear behaviors and are sensitive to material and environmental factors including cell size and shape, amount of porosity, and temperature, which are influenced by the type of base materials, reinforcements, method of fabrication, etc. Hence, the material characteristics of porous materials such as compressive stress-strain behavior and void volume fraction according to aforementioned factors should be precisely identified. In this study, unconfined uniaxial compressive test for two types of closed-cell structure polyurethane foam, namely, 0.16 and $0.32g/cm^3$ of densities were carried out. In addition, the void volume fraction of three different domains, namely, center, surface and buckling regions under various compressive strains (10 %, 30 %, 50 % and 70 %) were quantitatively observed using Micro 3D Computed Tomography(micro-CT) scanning system. Based on the experimental results, the relationship between compressive strain and void volume fraction with respect to cell size, density and boundary condition were investigated.
