Abstract:
1. A method for analyzing internal density of material by using X-ray computed tomography, comprising the steps of: a) installing a cylinder-shaped jig between an x-ray generator and an x-ray detector, b) inserting a material to be analyzed and a plurality of standard specimens whose densities are known into the inside of the cylinder-shaped jig, c) performing X-ray computed tomography while rotating the cylinder-shaped jig through 360°, and d) calculating the internal density of distribution of the material to be analyzed by using the X-ray intensities shown in the x-ray tomography image, wherein the calculation of internal density distribution of the material to be analyzed is performed based on the density of the standard specimens and the X-ray intensity in the region of standard specimens present at the X-ray tomography image by using the following formula: where X is an X-ray intensity at one region inside the material to be analyzed, D(X) is the density at the region, Di is the density of each standard specimen, Ai is the average of X-ray intensity at the region of the X-ray tomography image corresponding to the standard specimen, DM is the average of all the Di, AM is the average of all Ai, and N is the number of standard specimens.
