Applications/Examples of results

Comments from Associate Professor Daisuke Tahara of Ryukoku University: The combination of this device and X-ray CT for dynamic imaging has the potential to significantly contribute to the advancement of research across a wide range of fields by elucidating the phenomena and behaviors occurring within various materials such as biological materials and tissues, food, and composite materials. In my laboratory, we are primarily advancing research focused on the mechanical analysis of biological tissues, and we plan to present and publish results comparing simulation outcomes with the actual mechanical behaviors in the future. Associate Professor Daisuke Tahara, Department of Mechanical System Engineering, Faculty of Science and Technology, Ryukoku University [Peace of Mind with Next-Day Replacement] The brass exterior is designed to be X-ray resistant, but there is a risk of malfunction due to internal abnormalities with excessive X-ray exposure. To prepare for such troubles, we offer a reliable support service that ships a replacement device the next day. [Get a Free Mini Heater Now] For a limited time, we are giving away a USB-connected mini heater that can heat up to 40 degrees! Please also try out the heating tests!

Detailed information

• 

  Capsule (inside the menthol tobacco filter) We imaged the menthol tobacco filter using X-ray CT and observed the collapse of the capsule inside the filter. The dynamic changes of the sample under pressure can be visualized in 3D.

• 

  Food (Kaki no Tane) Kaki no Tane was imaged using X-ray CT to observe the cracking process. This observation during stress testing of food can be effectively utilized for the development of safety and texture, among other factors.

• 

  Observation under polarized light We captured images of a transparent plastic piece using our polarized imaging device. Stress changes due to photoelasticity can be observed in color.

• 

  Industrial material (glass wool) A 2cm square glass wool specimen was imaged using X-ray CT. Pressure was applied and then released. The change in fiber arrangement was observed by comparing before and after the pressure was applied.
