Tank Leak Detection Using Electrical Resistance Methods
Two field experiments were performed to evaluate the performance of electrical resistance tomography (ERT) as a leak detection method under metal underground storage tanks (UST). This paper provides a summary of the field experiments performed under a 15 m diameter steel tank mockup located at the Hanford Reservation, Washington. Two different leak events were created. About 3800 liters of sali...
متن کاملElectrical Methods for Mechanical Characterization of Interconnect Thin Films
We describe the use of electrical methods for evaluating mechanical reliability and properties of patterned copper and aluminum interconnects on silicon substrates. The approach makes use of controlled Joule heating, which causes thermal strains in the materials system due to differences in thermal expansion between the metal and constraining substrate and passivation. Our efforts concentrate o...
متن کاملMethods for characterization of mechanical and electrical prosthetic vacuum pumps.
Despite increasingly widespread adoption of vacuum-assisted suspension systems in prosthetic clinical practices, there remain gaps in the body of scientific knowledge guiding clinicians' choices of existing products. In this study, we identified important pump-performance metrics and developed techniques to objectively characterize the evacuation performance of prosthetic vacuum pumps. The sens...
متن کاملMapping Depth to Argillic Soil Horizons Using Apparent Electrical Conductivity
Maps of apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) of the soil profile are widely used in precision agriculture. A number of ECa sensors are commercially available, each with a unique response function (i.e., the relative contribution of soil at each depth to the integrated ECa reading). Our past research estimated depth to an argillic horizon (i.e., topsoil depth, TD) on claypan soils by fitting e...
متن کاملSpatial prediction of soil electrical conductivity using soil axillary data, soft data derived from general linear model and error measurement
Indirect measurement of soil electrical conductivity (EC) has become a major data source in spatial/temporal monitoring of soil salinity. However, in many cases, the weak correlation between direct and indirect measurement of EC has reduced the accuracy and performance of the predicted maps. The objective of this research was to estimate soil EC based on a general linear model via using se...
