Ultrasonic Techniques for Fluids Characterization

This handbook provides readers with a practical, "how-to" guide to the use of ultrasound for the characterization of fluids. Intended as a basic introduction (suitable for undergraduate courses) and an advanced text (targeting postgraduate researchers and R&D scientists/engineers in industry), the text pulls together the very latest research technology advances, creating a unique reference source for readers in academia and industry.

Key Features:

• The author's goal is to create a "how to" handbook for research scientists and engineers working in an R&D or industrial applications context.
• The text will provide a unique and up-to-date reference source (more than 400 references) for additional in-depth study of fundamental science and applications.
• Scope includes detailed treatments of ultrasound scattering theory as well as compressibility measurement in dispersions and fluids (including cell suspensions).
• Emphasis on practical implementation of ultrasound diagnostics - e.g. ultrasound techniques for particle sizing in concentrated systems; new techniques for measuring phase transitions and nucleation (such as water/ice and oil/fat); and methods for studying aggregation and viscoelastic/viscoplastic materials
• Opportunity to encourage knowledge-sharing, best practice and innovation across R&D scientists/engineers in diverse end-user communities - e.g. food manufacturing, chemicals, biotech and pharma, cosmetics and next-generation fuels.
• This book will serve as a course text (suitable for undergraduate students in the physical sciences, chemical engineering, food science and biotechnology) and reference text (suitable for postgraduate researchers engaged in fundamental and applied studies of ultrasonics in fluids characterization).
• Applications focus is on process efficiency and throughput via measurement automation and computer control.
