Automate [sic] image analysis routines for recording microstructural features of IN100
PublicQuantitative microscopy is used to evaluate mechanical properties through measurement of components such as: grain, gamma prime, carbide and porosity size distribution. These properties of high temperature metals, such as the Nickel-based Superalloy IN100 used by Pratt & Whitney, are essential to the performance of the material. In the past, measurement of these features was predominately done manually, requiring many hours for a large number of micrographs in order to achieve the accuracy needed. This project examined the automation and validation of the enhancement and measurement of IN100's material properties using Adobe Photoshop.
