Manufactured surfaces can take on many shapes and sizes. For surfaces where the characterization of shape is function critical, ZYGO laser interferometers and 3D optical profilers stand out with sub-nanometer repeatability of non-contact surface data. Incorporating industry standards for form and flatness into Mx™ analysis software creates a single stop measurement tool for surface inspection. Explore the solutions for your ...

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a relatively new and growing technique which is complimentary to more conventional, subtractive methods like machining. The major advantage of AM is that it allows the manufacturing of complex geometries and the creation of internal features that cannot be easily produced using subtractive methods. One major disadvantage of AM, however, is the reduced control of surface quality and dimensional ...

Polymer materials are finding ever increasing application in numerous consumer products. Applications range from areas as diverse as food packaging to organic electronics and biomaterials to automotive body panels. The surface properties of these materials are often vital in determining performance of the polymer for the specific application. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is ideally suited to the surface characterisation of these polymers as it can provide quantitative chemical state information from the ...

Temperature is an important factor in streams ecosystems. Heat tracers have been used to characterize contaminant transport, infiltration rates and energy exchange with groundwater, the atmosphere and radiation. The dynamics of these complicated water bodies is also affected by seasonal and diurnal patterns making characterization particularly challenging. Utilizing temperature measurements that capture spatial and temporal variations at stream ecosystem interfaces provides a mechanism for detailed ...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is ideally suited to provide information relating to interfacial material properties that are critical to the performance of modern batteries used for power storage. It can give insights into chemical composition, elemental or chemical distribution of species, defect sites or functional groups. Importantly, AXIS spectrometers allow studies of these materials to be extended to in-situ and in-operando characterisation of model devices. ...

Fault zones: Geological faults are related to an increase in weathering and loosening up of the surrounding rock, which causes an increase in hydraulic routing. This lowers the rigidity of the rock and increases the risk for constructing new buildings. In the event of an earthquake, even dislocations are possible along the fault. Seismic refraction measurements enable the mapping of seismic velocities and related material properties. The lateral variations of these velocities then indicate the location of fault ...

Most earthquake damage occurs due to ground amplifications which, for the same earthquake magnitude, change with ground stiffness at relatively shallow depths. Based on the premise established from a study that the top 30-m influences most and the shear-wave velocity (Vs) is the best indicator of stiffness, the average Vs in the top 30 m (denoted as Vs30m) is used as an important criterion in the design of building structures. In general, a lower Vs30m would be subject to a greater ground amplification (and ...
