Abstract

The present paper reports on our efforts to obtain an intelligent and automatic Mössbauer analysis. For this propose, a program was implemented capable to analyse and fit a Mössbauer spectrum, identify the substance under study, and give information of the micro-environment. The implemented program uses expert systems, genetic algorithm, fuzzy logic and artificial neural networks to process the present information based on previous knowledge of the substance. The program, also, is able to process additional information from other analytical techniques such as XRD and chemical analysis. It is possible to update the program’s knowledge.
