The complete, practical sourcebook for laser sensing and measurement This is a systematic, up-to-date guide to laser instrumentation for sensing and measurement in contemporary scientific, industrial, automotive and avionics applications. Dr. Silvano Donati presents clear design rules and useful hints for practical implementation of a wide variety of laser instruments. For each type of instrument, the author outlines basic principles, physical limitations, reasonable performance expectations, optical design issues, and electronic signal handling--illustrated with block schemes. Coverage includes: Interferometers for sub-micrometer displacement measurements Nanometer vibrometers and structural integrity testing Doppler velocimeters for anemometry of fluids Range finders and anti-collision systems Non-contact wire-diameter and particle-diameter sizing Alignment and level meter apparatuses Ring laser and optical fiber gyroscopes Optical fiber sensors Thorough and accessible, Electro-Optical Instrumentation offers balanced coverage of both optical and electronic issues and challenges. It will give working electronic engineers and scientists the knowledge they need to design virtually any electro-optical instrumentation system.

The welding process is used by manufacturing companies worldwide. Due to this broad application, many studies have been carried out in various fields to improve the quality and reduce the cost of welded components and structures. Welding is a complex and non-linear physical and mechanistic process. This book relates the importance of automation and control in welding processes, highlights some modern processes, and shows, among other influential welding factors, the importance of metal thermomechanical processing studies.

The document is a tutorial Monograph describing various aspects of time and frequency (T/F). Included are chapters relating to elemental concepts of precise time and frequency; basic principles of quartz oscillators and atomic frequency standards; historical review, recent progress, and current status of atomic frequency standards; promising areas for developing future primary frequency standards; relevance of frequency standards to other areas of metrology including a unified standard concept; statistics of T/F data analysis coupled with the theory and construction of the NBS atomic time scale; an overview of T/F dissemination techniques; and the standards of T/F in the USA. The Monograph addresses both the specialist in the field as well as those desiring basic information about time and frequency. The authors trace the development and scope of T/F technology, its improvement over periods of decades, its status today, and its possible use, applications, and development in days to come.
