A technique to correct for sample thickness variations for use with IDAPS X-ray radiograph analysis
The Image Data Processing System (IDAPS) at the Marshall Space Flight Center is used to analyze radiographs of metal samples to qualitatively and quantitatively map compositional variations across the samples. When the X-ray radiographs are of samples having thickness variations, corrections must be made to accomplish compositional analysis. A correction technique is described for cylindrical samples and is applied to radiographs of SPAR Experiment 74-18. Uncorrected and corrected images are shown.
