The size and shape characterization of irregular particles is a key issue in many fields of
science, which is often associated with large uncertainties. We assess existing protocols and …

The goal of seeking advanced solutions to the descriptions of particle shape, packing and
tomographic measurement were key areas promoted by Professor Reg Davies. In this paper …

In this study we used X-ray microtomography (micro-CT) to evaluate the 3D pore size
distribution and morphology of both undisturbed soil cores (5cm diameter, 6cm length) and …

Abstract Information for the microstructure of soil aggregates is crucial for understanding the
mechanisms of various soil processes. The quantification of complex aggregate …

Background To introduce a new method for measurement of surface roughness of the
endodontic instrument, before and after instrumentation, using the Field Emission Scanning …

Several important technological and economic trends are shaping the research on non-
destructive testing techniques. X-ray computed tomography is also a NDT product of these …

Abstract Inundation of the Three Gorges Reservoir has created a 30-m water-level
fluctuation zone with seasonal hydrological alternations of submergence and exposure …

Azufral (SW Colombia) is a dangerous silicic volcano hosting a crater lake, which serves as
an excellent example of an incipient plug disruption through phreatomagmatism. We studied …

This study looks at energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) maps of fluorine in NMC
622 cathodes and the efforts made to improve the spatial resolution of fluorine mapping. The …

Standardless Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) on polished samples of Portland
cement clinker is routinely performed both for unhydrated phases as well as in cement …
