内容説明
This book provides a straightforward guide to the use of ultrasound aimed for these industrial researchers. It contains a clear account of the nature, properties and uses of ultrasound in an accessible form, suitable for the non-specialist. The technical application of ultrasonic instruments is surveyed in sufficient detail to guide the user in choosing the appropriate sensor technology to solve a particular problem. It includes a list of commercial companies involved in ultrasonic technology. This important addition to the Sensors Series is easy to read, with illustrations which capture the essence of technical equipment while avoiding unnecessary detail.
