Summary

A Galaxy pipeline keeps crack masks, networks, quality controls and processing history together.

The workflow processes scanning-electron microscopy images and metadata into crack masks, skeletonized networks, quality-control views and scalar damage descriptors without image-specific parameter tuning. It was demonstrated on 418 images from 114 thermal-shock experiments spanning five tungsten grades and three microstructures. Prediction and simulation modules remain extensions rather than the paper's principal validated claim.
