Fig. 1: Workflow for muography-based density and saturation estimations.
From: Laboratory-scale muography experiments to estimate density and saturation in porous media
Schematic flowchart representation of the experimental and analytical framework of experimental data. Muography experiments were conducted on sand cubes with varying densities associated with fluid content variations, as well as on acrylic boxes with changing lengths. Hourly muon flux data from the acrylic experiment were fitted to develop an absorption model, which enables the estimation of density and fluid saturation. Laboratory Gaussian pulse filtering and environmental corrections were investigated to improve measurement reliability. The same workflow was adopted for the numerical simulation data; however, no filtering methods were used, as simulations focused exclusively on positively and negatively charged muons. Simulation outputs supported model validation and interpretation.
