Acoustic resonance spectroscopy

Acoustic resonance spectroscopy (ARS) is a method of spectroscopy in the acoustic region, primarily the sonic and ultrasonic regions.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Acoustic resonance spectroscopy

Bubble column reactor

A bubble column reactor is a chemical reactor that belongs to the general class of multiphase reactors, which consists of three main categories: trickle bed reactor (fixed or packed bed), fluidized bed reactor, and bubble column reactor.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Bubble column reactor

Camborne School of Mines

Camborne School of Mines (Scoll Balow Cambron), commonly abbreviated to CSM, was founded in 1888.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Camborne School of Mines

Conveyor system

A conveyor system is a common piece of mechanical handling equipment that moves materials from one location to another.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Conveyor system

Crystallization

Crystallization is the process by which solids form, where the atoms or molecules are highly organized into a structure known as a crystal.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Crystallization

CT scan

A computed tomography scan (CT scan; formerly called computed axial tomography scan or CAT scan) is a medical imaging technique used to obtain detailed internal images of the body. Industrial Tomography Systems and cT scan are x-ray computed tomography.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and CT scan

Densitometer

A densitometer is a device that measures the degree of darkness (the optical density) of a photographic or semitransparent material or of a reflecting surface.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Densitometer

Electric current

An electric current is a flow of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, moving through an electrical conductor or space.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Electric current

Electrical capacitance tomography

Electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) is a method for determination of the dielectric permittivity distribution in the interior of an object from external capacitance measurements.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Electrical capacitance tomography

Electrical impedance tomography

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a noninvasive type of medical imaging in which the electrical conductivity, permittivity, and impedance of a part of the body is inferred from surface electrode measurements and used to form a tomographic image of that part.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Electrical impedance tomography

Electrical resistivity and conductivity

Electrical resistivity (also called volume resistivity or specific electrical resistance) is a fundamental specific property of a material that measures its electrical resistance or how strongly it resists electric current.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Electrical resistivity and conductivity

Electrode

An electrode is an electrical conductor used to make contact with a nonmetallic part of a circuit (e.g. a semiconductor, an electrolyte, a vacuum or air).

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Electrode

Fluid dynamics

In physics, physical chemistry and engineering, fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that describes the flow of fluids—liquids and gases.

See Industrial Tomography Systems and Fluid dynamics

Fluidized bed

A fluidized bed is a physical phenomenon that occurs when a solid particulate substance (usually present in a holding vessel) is under the right conditions so that it behaves like a fluid.
