Materials' mechanical and physical properties and behaviour are substantially determined by their microstructure. As a result,
in material design and engineering, visualising the inner structure and morphological properties of materials is critical. The
incapacity of two-dimensional (2D) imaging technologies to offer spatial information about the researched structure is an
inherent constraint. Three-dimensional (3D) imaging, on the other hand, can reveal inhomogeneity volume, form, spatial and
size distribution, and connection. 2D radiographs, for example, can establish the presence of cracks, discontinuities, pores,
or structural flaws, but 3D pictures can also assist us in locating and identifying their source. The wavelength of the applied
radiation defines the scale of the features being explored in the majority of 3D imaging techniques. When utilising visible li.. View more»
