Algorithm of Estimation of the Degree of Porosity Homogeneity of Foamed Concretes by Local Volumes by X-ray Computed Tomography Method
X-ray CT is widely used to study the structure of foam concrete, the quality of which depends on the uniformity in porosity in local volumes (LV) of the samples. The purpose of this work is to substantiate the need to assess the degree of homogeneity of samples in terms of porosity according to LV....

description | X-ray CT is widely used to study the structure of foam concrete, the quality of which depends on the uniformity in porosity in local volumes (LV) of the samples. The purpose of this work is to substantiate the need to assess the degree of homogeneity of samples in terms of porosity according to LV. To achieve the goal, an appropriate algorithm has been developed and programmed in MathCad. To illustrate the capabilities of the algorithm, foam concrete modified with fly ash and thermally modified peat (TMP) was tested by CT. The information obtained by CT was processed by the proposed algorithm with variations in LV dimensions in order to estimate the distributions of mean values and standard deviations of porosity. Based on the data obtained, a conclusion was made about the high quality of foam concrete with TMP. The proposed algorithm can be used at the stage of improving the technologies for the production of high-quality foam concretes and other porous materials. |
