Re: [MW:15819] Can we measure the Ug

Ravi, Following is the extraction of ASTM E94: Clause 15.2 The radiographic image of an object or feature within an object may be larger or smaller than the object or feature itself, because the penumbra of the shadow is rarely visible in a radiograph. IMO, you can not measure Ug on a radiograph using a scale. as the Ug will always be very negligible in dimension, usually less than 0.5 mm (if proper techniques are followed) You can measure the Ug (the penumbra), only if you are making a 'deliberate' setup like large Object to film distance, large source size than the discontinuity size whose Ug is to be measured etc. And finally, if the Ug is measurable on the film, really it is a bad quality radiograph...!!!
