Atomic overlay of a hybrid L and Q’ precipitate

Welcome to the AutomAl 6000 home-page!

AutomAl 6000 is a stand-alone software tool for semi-automatic labelling of HAADF-STEM images of precipitates in the 6xxx aluminium alloys, developed as a part of my master-project in physics at NTNU. Main features include:

• Basic column detection

• Column characterization algorithm

• Flexible statistical modelling

• Atomic graphs for user interactions with the structure data

• GUI

• Imports dm3, TIFF and AtoMap file formats

• Exports csv, png and svg file formats

• Open-source

To find out more about the underlying methodology, take a look at the master thesis, or the AutomAl 6000 paper in Ultramicroscopy, available under the links section.

To get started with AutomAl, check out the guides provided on this web-site, or the youtube tutorial-series, also under the links section.
