A Statistical Approach To Measure Uniformity Of Fuji Prescale Pressure Sensitive Film Samples

Abstract

Fuji prescale pressure sensitive films (FPPSF) are generally used in biomechanical applications to measure the pressure distributions and the contact areas between two contact surfaces as in coloured stains. FPPSFs are usually calibrated based on the calibration methods using regression analysis to obtain a specific calibration curve. However, researchers in literature achieve different calibration curves based upon their tests and different processes. The purpose of this study is to examine the calibration stains (data) obtained experimentally using the FPPSF samples compressed between two smooth flat surfaces to indicate contact pressures. The gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) was used to evaluate the uniformity of the sample stains for quantitative evaluation of uniform distribution of the sample stains. Moreover, the generated calibration data is also compared and validated statistically with the related calibration curves presented in the available literature. As a result, the parameter of energy property of GLCM can be practicable to check the image uniformity of samples in order for performing the accuracy of a generated curve.

Abstract

Fuji önölçekli basınca duyarlı filmler (FPPSF) genellikle biyomekanik uygulamalarda kullanılır. FPPSF'ler genellikle kalibrasyon yöntemlerine göre kalibre edilir. Bununla birlikte, literatürdeki araştırmacılar testlerine ve farklı işlemlerine dayanarak farklı kalibrasyon eğrileri elde ederler. Bu çalışmanın amacı, deneysel olarak FPPSF numuneleri kullanılarak elde edilen kalibrasyon lekelerini (verilerini) incelemektir. Numune boyalarının homojenliğini değerlendirmek için gri düzey eş-oluşum matrisi (GLCM) kullanıldı. Ayrıca, üretilen kalibrasyon verileri de mevcut literatürde sunulan ilgili kalibrasyon eğrileriyle istatistiksel olarak karşılaştırılır ve doğrulanır. Sonuç olarak, GLCM'nin enerji özellik parametresi, üretilen eğrinin doğruluğunu gerçekleştirmek için örneklerin görüntü düzgünlüğünü kontrol etmek için uygulanabilir.
