Optical Metrology for Fluids, Combustion and Solids is the first
practical handbook that presents the assemblage of the techniques
necessary to provide a basic understanding of optical measurement
for fluids, combustion, and solids. The use of light as a
measurement tool has grown over the past twenty years from a
narrowly specialized activity to a mainstay of modern research
today. Until recently, the knowledge that could be extracted from
the light interaction of light with physical objects was limited to
specialized activities. The invention of the laser, the computer
and microelectronics has enabled a measurement revolution such that
virtually every parameter of engineering interest can be measured
using the minimally intrusive properties of light.
The authors of this book's chapters are leaders in this revolution.
They work on the front lines of research in government, industry,
and universities, inventing yet more ways to harness the power of
light for the generation of knowledge.
