"Practical Assessment of
Portable High Energy X-ray Machines for Industrial NDE Applications"
This used a range
of X-ray generators from 2MeV betatron through to 6MeV
Linac, and the KANDE Bar phantom to determine the performance
achievable in steel from 25mm to 200mm thick.
A paper based on
this work was presented at the ICNDE conference in 2009:
Practical
Assessment of Portable High Energy Xray Equipment. Kietzman
EK, Atkinson I, Queen H, LeBrun A, Salin J, Nyholt J. Proc. 7th ICNDE,
Yokohama, May 2009
"Practical Assessment of
Selected Digital Radiographic Imaging Systems"
This studied the
performance of a number of current DR and CR imaging
systems with a wide range of X-ray and gamma sources over a thickness
range of 5mm to 200mm in steel.
A paper based on
this
work was presented at the Digital imaging XIII
conference in 2010:
Joint
industry study into the performance of digital radiography for
in-service inspection applications. Kietzman EK, Nyholt, J, Hall JF,
Queen H and Salin J. Digital Imaging XIII. Foxwoods, Mashantucket CT,
19-21 July 2010.
