Uncertainty Quantification for Point Spread Functions in X-Ray Radiography

X-ray radiographers have tools for estimating the point spread function (PSF) which determines the extent of the blur in images. Knowledge of uncertainties in their estimations can be extremely valuable, and existing methods do not provide this information. We have developed a new technique using a Bayesian framework that will provide useful uncertainties to the estimated PSF.

Corrosion proxy material integrated sensor devices for distributed sensing of early corrosion onset and corrosion quantification

Embodiments relate to methods, systems and apparatus for detecting corrosion using a detector apparatus with a host component. The method includes a detector apparatus. The detector apparatus includes an energy source; a corrosion proxy thin film that corrodes at a rate where the normalized change of mass of the film over time is greater than the normalized change of mass of the bulk material of the host component in a harsh environment; and the detector, wherein the detector is capable of detecting a change in energy due to corrosion of the corrosion proxy thin film. The method includes exposing the host component and the corrosion proxy thin film to the harsh environment; and detecting a change in energy using the detector due to corrosion of the corrosion proxy thin film.
