This work highlights a novel optical thermometric phosphor SrZn 0.33 Nb 0.67 O 3 :Pr 3+ as well its remarkably improved temperature-sensing performance via Ga doping.

All 169 caulkers employed at a ship yard were examined to determine the prevalence of vibration syndrome due to pneumatic portable tools (chipping hammer and grinders). Vibration measurements and medical investigations were performed in the field between September 1977 and July 1978. Vibration spectra recorded on pneumatic tools were compared to ISO Draft Proposal No. 5369. The chipping hammer ...

Thermal tomography refers to the acquisition of detailed thermal information throughout a slice of the subject. Experimental temperature information of this nature to be obtained experimentally using some form of scanning mechanism is usually implied by the term, noninvasive thermometry. Desirable specifications for such a system are presented, and the degree to which the proposed methods are l...
