Abstract

By using innovative approaches in material science and the artificial intelligence tools developed following these developments, it is possible to obtain information about materials that have not yet been produced or have only been produced as samples. Ionizing radiation is a type of radiation frequently used in industry and medicine, and its use requires taking precautions. These precautions consist of three rules: time, distance, and shielding. Within the scope of this study, the attenuation properties of polymeric materials using XCOM and PHY-X/PSD were investigated and compared, especially for shielding needs.
