By: Daniel Schumacher The Krewe of Tchefuncte Boat Parade in Madisonville is a vibrant twist on the traditional Mardi Gras festivities celebrated throughout Louisiana. A picturesque town nestled along the Tchefuncte River on Lake Pontchartrain’s Northshore, Madisonville has become known for this colorful and lively event.

Unidirectional and non-unidirectional freeze cast SiOC monoliths were characterized by means of digital image processing. For this purpose a novel method of pore segmentation in complex dendritic pore morphologies was developed. For the first time, the proposed method made it possible to perform an extensive geometrical and structural pore space characterization and analysis on single pore level. The orientation of the primary dendritic channels was obtained from high resolution μCT images.
