Division 8.3
Radiological Methods
The division's major tasks comprise the development, application and
validation of non-destructive techniques. It contributes to the improvement of
reliability and performance of materials and components for safe operation of
products and industrial plants in all branches.
The division is engaged in crime prevention and waste inspection.
Activities
- Develpoment and validation of modern stationary and mobile radiographic
methods by X-ray, gamma, electron and neutron radiation and its
standardisation
- Three-dimensional procedures and reconstruction algorithms for specific
radiological tasks
- Modelling and simulation of non-destructive tests and their
reliability
- Development of validation procedures for NDT
- X-ray diffraction texture and phase topography for non-destructive
