Combined analytical techniques are required to adequately cover the gravel-to-clay fractions when working with wide-range sediment particle size distributions (PSDs). Laser diffraction provides ...

In order to cut, grind and polish softer materials, an abrasive is typically used. It is either a natural or a synthetic mineral, which is applied liberally to shape or finish a workpiece to a ...

Experiments were conducted to establish a laser diffraction-based method for the determination of lactose powder particle size. This was accomplished using a Bettersizer 2600 equipped with a fully ...

Laser diffraction analysis, also known as laser diffraction spectroscopy, is a technology that utilizes diffraction patterns of a laser beam passed through any object ranging from nanometers to ...

Light microscopes have revolutionized our understanding of the microcosmos, but their resolution is limited to about 100 nanometers. To see how molecules bond, break, or change their structure, we ...

Understanding the dynamic process of epitaxial microstructure forming in laser additive manufacturing is very important for achieving products with a single crystalline texture. Here, we perform in ...

Researchers have reported developing a new metal Additive Manufacturing approach that actively mixes molten metal during ...

Scientists from the University of Rochester say deep learning can supercharge a technique that is already the gold standard for characterizing new materials. In an npj Computational Materials paper, ...
