Experimental Imaging Methods for Particulate and Multiphase Systems. Volume 2 Optical, Electrical and Magnetic Imaging Methods

Experimental Imaging Methods for Particulate and Multiphase Systems. Volume 2 Optical, Electrical and Magnetic Imaging Methods Synopsis

The aim of this work is to provide a single point of reference from which a reader with no prior specialist knowledge may gain a deep and comprehensive understanding of all contemporary techniques commonly used in the experimental imaging of particulate and multiphase systems - including both current "standard" techniques and new "bleeding-edge" methods yet to be widely adopted, but which may form the next generation of particle imaging technology.

Volume 2 focuses on nuclear techniques which are typically more complex, more expensive and difficult to set up and require additional background not needed for the other techniques in terms of the underlying physics, the detector systems used and the necessary safety precautions. This volume also includes the "cutting edge" techniques, as well as a discussion of simulation validation, as most of the examples will be drawn from the nuclear category.

Key Features

•  Provides the most complete collection of particle imaging techniques ever assembled.

• Includes "bleeding-edge" techniques, such as rheography, diverging beam radiography and multi-axis x-ray tracking, not featured in any prior work.

• Includes numerical simulation techniques and how to integrate them with, and validate them against, experimental methods.

• "How-to" guides for creating various experimental imaging systems.

• Access to open-source code and real, research-quality data.

• Unique pedagogical features such as the Jupyter notebooks will allow even readers with no prior knowledge to arm themselves with a variety of powerful experimental techniques.
