The survey community is only just beginning to recognise the value of laser range finders. This has not been the case for a number of industrial survey applications, where the ability of lasers to range to dangerous or in accessible places has meant that valuable and, previously unavailable survey information can be obtained which dramatically improves the industrial process. No where has this ...

Although the application of ultrasonic energy to produce or to enhance a wide variety of processes have been explored since about the middle of the 20th century, only a reduced number of ultrasonic processes have been established at industrial level. However, during the last ten years the interest in ultrasonic processing has revived particularly in industrial sectors where the ultrasonic techn...
