Publisher's 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 1 focuses on optical and electromagnetic techniques, which are, on the whole, underpinned by relatively simple and widely-known physical concepts, utilise relatively simple detector systems, and do not carry any significant safety concerns in their operation.
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.
