This tutorial illustrates a common workflow to analyze the microstructure geometry of an imported data set. How to import this data set is shown in the first part of this tutorial series. The analysis of the geometry results in a better understanding of the structure and provides measurements to validate the statistical digital twin in the next part of the series.

We will detect binder within the solid phase, then we analyze the transport properties, such as tortuosity, the surface area, and the pore structure. In the end, we identify the individual grains with their statistics, enabling us to generate a statsitical digital twin as shown in the next part of this tutorial series.

This tutorial is the second part of the Digital Battery Design tutorial series:

1. Import and Quality Control of a Cathode Material: This tutorial guides you along the steps to analyze, post-process, and finally segment a 3D-scan of an NMC-cathode.
2. Standardized Microstructure Analysis of a Cathode Material: This tutorial shows how to analyze the segmented scan regarding transport properties and pore size distribution.
3. Building a Statistical Digital Twin of a Cathode Material: In this tutorial, a statistical digital twin is built and validated using the results from the second part of this tutorial series.
4. Digital Battery Charging: Learn how to analyze the charging behavior of a digital battery consisting of bimodal electrodes.
