Connect imaging data to better understand composites and polymers
Session 1: Prof. Dr. Christian Brauner
Session 2: Prof. Philip Withers
Characterizing advanced composites and polymers often requires multiple imaging techniques, each revealing different materials properties. Successfully correlating these various data types enables researchers and designers to extract additional insights from how multi-scale properties can synergize.
Watch our webinar to discover how correlative imaging workflows combine data from multiple imaging modalities and dimensions into a unified view of your material. Learn how advanced imaging systems and analysis software can help researchers bridge the gap between 2D and 3D datasets, correlate structure and composition, and perform more comprehensive quantitative analyses.
Prof. Dr. Christian Brauner and Prof. Philip Withers presented real-world applications of correlative imaging and analytical methods. They also shared their points of view on research trends in a live interview discussing the challenges, best practices, and future landscape of composite materials.
Watch this webinar to:
- Correlate data from multiple imaging techniques within a single workflow
- Connect 2D and 3D datasets across different length scales
- Improve defect characterization and microstructural analysis
- Extract quantitative information from complex, multi-modal datasets
