All rights reserved.A Monte Carlo simulation study has been conducted of the Cs-137 gamma ray backscattering in the aluminum alloy plate. This simulation was performed in order to identify the existence of the crack in the aluminum alloy plate, the correlation between the backscattering peak and the crack width. We are able to analyze the absorbed energy distribution in the NaI(Tl) scintillation detector. For the experimental measurement, we are using 5 μCi of a Cs-137 gamma source and 2 in. x 2in. NaI(Tl) scintillation detector with the PMT. The aluminum alloy dimension is about 8 cm x 6 cm x 1 cm. The crack model is represented by the slit with the varying width (1 mm, 2 mm, 4 mm, and 6 mm). The existence of a crack is identified by the decreasing intensity of the gamma backscattering energy peak. These predicted results have a good agreement with the experimental measurement.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Absorbed energy,Backscattering energy,Crack identification,Crack model,Crack width,Gamma source,Monte Carlo model[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/799/1/012010[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
