  2. Radioanalytical chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioanalytical_chemistry

    They developed chemical separation and radiation measurement techniques on terrestrial radioactive substances. During the twenty years that followed 1897 the concepts of radionuclides was born. [1] Since Curie's time, applications of radioanalytical chemistry have proliferated.

  3. Acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustics

    Structural acoustics is the study of motions and interactions of mechanical systems with their environments and the methods of their measurement, analysis, and control. There are several sub-disciplines found within this regime: Modal Analysis; Material characterization; Structural health monitoring; Acoustic Metamaterials; Friction Acoustics

  4. Industrial radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_radiography

    Making a radiograph. Industrial radiography is a modality of non-destructive testing that uses ionizing radiation to inspect materials and components with the objective of locating and quantifying defects and degradation in material properties that would lead to the failure of engineering structures.

  5. Geiger counter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geiger_counter

    Civil defense Geiger counters, handheld radiation monitors, both G-M and ion chambers; Counting efficiency the ratio of radiation events reaching a detector and the number it counts; Data sonification, the interpretation or processing of data by sound; Dosimeter, a device used by personnel to measure what radiation dose they have received

  6. Sound amplification by stimulated emission of radiation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_amplification_by...

    Such values approach the electric puncture intensity of liquid dielectrics. Hence, a study proposes a SASER scheme without this limitation. The pumping is created by radial mechanical pulsations of a cylinder. This cylinder contains an active medium—a liquid dielectric with gas bubbles. The radiation emits through the faces of the cylinder.

  7. Beam steering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_steering

    Beam steering is a technique for changing the direction of the main lobe of a radiation pattern.. In radio and radar systems, beam steering may be accomplished by switching the antenna elements or by changing the relative phases of the RF signals driving the elements.

  8. Characterization (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characterization...

    [1] [2] The scope of the term often differs; some definitions limit the term's use to techniques which study the microscopic structure and properties of materials, [2] while others use the term to refer to any materials analysis process including macroscopic techniques such as mechanical testing, thermal analysis and density calculation. [3]

  9. Discrete ordinates method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_Ordinates_Method

    The method of discrete ordinates, or the S n method, is one way to approximately solve the RTE by discretizing both the xyz-domain and the angular variables that specify the direction of radiation. The methods were developed by Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar when he was working on radiative transfer.
