Deflection tomographic reconstruction of a complex flow field from incomplete projection data

Tomographic techniques are used for the investigation of complex flow fields by means of deflectometric methods. In this experiment, a modified algebraic reconstruction technique (ART) was applied to moiré deflection tomography. The algorithm was derived from the basic deflection formula and the deflection angles were used directly in iteration, which is completely different from the conventional ARTs with integral calculation that are commonly used in deflection tomography. A smoothing scheme was employed to improve the reconstruction under ill-posed conditions. The reconstruction technique was tested using simulated data for incompleteness conditions similar to those found in the experimental data. The complex density field with an opaque object in a supersonic wind tunnel was reconstructed from limited view angle projections, and the experimental reconstruction was then compared with the result obtained from the computational fluid dynamic analysis. The following paper details the experiment and discusses some measurement errors that occurred in the process.     

VARIATIONAL ITERATIVE ALGORITHMS IN PHOTOACOUSTIC TOMOGRAPHY WITH VARIABLE SOUND SPEED

In this paper, we investigate the adjoint equation in photoacoustic tomography with variable sound speed, and propose three variational iterative algorithms. The basic idea of these algorithms is to compute the original equation and the adjoint equation iteratively. We present numerical examples and show the well performance of these variational iterative algorithms.     

Single-photon compressive imaging with some performance benefits over raster scanning

A single-photon imaging system based on compressed sensing has been developed to image objects under ultra-low illumination. With this system, we have successfully realized imaging at the single-photon level with a single-pixel avalanche photodiode without point-by-point raster scanning. From analysis of the signal-to-noise ratio in the measurement we find that our system has much higher sensitivity than conventional ones based on point-by-point raster scanning, while the measurement time is also reduced.     

Investigation of the synergy in intumescent polyurethane by 3D computed tomography

The morphology of carbonized materials resulting from an intumescence phenomenon was studied. The investigated material is a polyurethane matrix filled either by 30 wt.-% of ammonium polyphosphate or by a combination of 28 wt.-% of ammonium polyphosphate and 2 wt.-% of nano-magnesium oxide. These fillers were incorporated in the polyurethane directly during the synthesis step. The carbonized materials or char, are obtained in a specific fire scenario. Characterization of their morphology is carried out using X-ray computed tomography. The heat conductivity of the systems is additionally measured as a function of temperature in order to correlate structure and properties of the intumescent residues. The formation of different char structures with incorporation of magnesium oxide (in particular formation of bubbles of different size) is first evidenced. These observations are consistent with the heat conductivity data. Tomography images demonstrate that the intumescence process is a dynamic process since non degraded polymer is left at the beginning of the fire test, which is not the case for longer time. The dispersion of fillers has finally been investigated in the chars and it is evidenced different steps of intumescence's development in the material.     

Imaging of subcutaneous microcirculation vascular network by double correlation Optical Coherence Tomography

Spatial distribution of superficial blood vessels in human skin in vivo has been observed by using the double correlation Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT). To remove background noise, reduce the artifacts associated with patient motions and to increase the overall quality of the experimental OCT images an adaptive Wiener filtering technique has been employed. Fourier domain correlation has been subsequently applied to enhance spatial resolution of images of vascular network in human skin in vivo. Image processing has been performed on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) utilizing Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) framework in the frequency‐domain. This approach allows carrying out image processing in parallel significantly speeding up the computations. The presented results show that the double correlation method permits obtaining 2D/3D OCT images of subcutaneous microcirculation vascular network and its spatial distribution within the human skin with higher spatial resolution compare to the other OCT correlation‐based techniques developed earlier.

Fourier transform moiré tomography for high-sensitivity mapping asymmetric 3-D temperature field

Fourier transform evaluation for moiré deflectogram is proposed to automatically map the temperature field. The moiré deflectogram is generated by conventional deflectometer and is analyzed by means of Fourier transform algorithm. The convolution backprojection algorithm is used for the optical tomography. Asymmetric 3-D gas temperature distribution for a given layer is reconstructed.     

Quantitative measurement of solids distribution in gas–solid riser flows using electrical impedance tomography and gamma densitometry tomography

An electrical impedance tomography (EIT) system has been developed to non-invasively measure particle distributions in the riser of a pilot-scale circulating fluidized bed (CFB). Although EIT systems have often been applied to yield qualitative information about gas–solid flows, the present EIT system yields quantitative information that is validated by comparison to a gamma densitometry tomography (GDT) system. EIT and GDT were applied to the CFB riser (14-cm inner diameter, 5.77-m height) containing fluid catalytic cracking particles in air. The flows examined were annular with a dilute core and had average and near-wall solids volume fractions up to 0.25 and 0.66, respectively. For all cases, the average and near-wall solids volume fractions from EIT and GDT agreed to within 0.03 and 0.07, respectively. This good agreement suggests that, where feasible, EIT can be used in place of GDT, which is advantageous since EIT systems are often safer, less expensive, and faster than GDT systems.     

Computational Results for Seamount Imaging in a Water Waveguide

This article presents our computational results for imaging a seamount in a waveguide. We assume that there is no knowledge of what kind of boundary condition on the unknown seamount. The incident waves are sent from point sources along a straight line and the corresponding scattered fields are measured from a line above the unknown seamount. Analysis and numerical results are presented.
