This study presents methodology and tools for remote measurement of the orientation of the rock parting surfaces. Two close circuit video camera capture the pictures of a rock excavation surface while a laser beam scans the surface. Positions of the laser beams in the two digital images are recognized by image processing. Using the stereoscopic concept, three dimensional coordinations of the rock surface and the orientation of the rock parting planes are calculated. Point, cross and line type laser beams are tested for better image processing results and measurement accuracy of the coordinates. According to a simple accuracy test, cross beam show better results than the point beam. However, line beam show more promising results for the measurement of the rock parting surfaces.

Authors have measured virtual source distance of electron beam from CL/1800 medical linear accelerator, with newly designed method. Beam scanning was performed with the direction of beam axis in the air. Compared results between this study and well established in phantom measurement shows good agreement with in experimental error. And we have found that build-up cap plays very important role in air measurement because of charge build up. The method of in-air measurement of virtual source distance is very easy to set-up and generate accurate results.

We describe a simple method to obtain an optical sectioning in a conventional wide-field microscope by projecting a single spatial frequency grid pattern onto the object. Using a patterned beam, we have measured the height of BGA with a rough surface that provide the coherence noise. The configuration of the height measurement system using pattern beam is simple. The image acquired by this system is not depend on the coherence noises. This system is also applicable to the sample reference plan that has no pattern on ground. The reappearance and accuracy are outstanding and applicable to many industrial optical metrology.

Purpose: Even if the wedge filter is widely used for the radiation therapy to modify the photon beam intensity, the wedged photon beam dose calculation is not so easy. Radiation therapy planning systems (RTPS) have been used the empirical or semi-analytical methods such as attenuation method using wedge filter parameters or wedge filter factor obtained from measurement. However, these methods can cause serious error in penumbra region as well as in edge region. In this study, we propose the dose calculation algorithm for wedged field to minimize the error especially in the outer beam region. Materials and Method: Modified intensity by wedge filter was calculated using tissue-maximum ratio (TMR) and scatter-maximum ratio (SMR) of wedged field. Profiles of wedged and non-wedged direction was also used. The result of new dose calculation was compared with measurement and the result from attenuation method. Results: Proposed algorithm showed the good agreement with measurement in the high dose-gradient region as well as in the inner beam region. The error was decreased comparing to attenuation method. Conclusion: Although necessary beam data for the RTPS commissioning was increased, new algorithm would guarantee the improved dose calculation accuracy for wedged field. In future, this algorithm could be adopted in RTPS.

The beam characteristics and dosimetric measurements of the 6MV X-ray and 6MeV electron beam from a ML-6M linear accelerator are examined. The Percent Depth Dose(PDD) table and the tissue Maximum Ratio(TMR) table are taken from measurement as a function of the field size and the depth. The calculated TMR table from PDD table is compared with those from measurement. Other beam characteristics such as output factor, beam profile(including flatness, symmetry and penumbra), wedge, and the variation of Dmax are presented. All of these dosimetric measurements sufficiently characterized the beam to permit safe clinical use.

Use of a DLP-beam projector is proposed to measure solar cell quantum efficiency distribution. The measurement requires a good spatial uniformity of the beam from the projector. We measured the spectral power distribution of the beam projector and the spatial uniformity of the white beam. By changing the gray level of the white beam at the measured spatial points, we improved the spatial illuminance uniformity to be about 2 % which was otherwise as much as 400 %.

Many research applications in basic sciences and biology such as protein crystallography require hard x-rays in the range of 3-20 keV with high brightness. A medium energy storage ring as PLS-II with a beam energy of 3 GeV can meet such high photon energies. In-vacuum undulators (IVU) with a period length of 20 mm and a peak field of 0.97 T are used in the PLS-II ring to produce such X-rays in the fundamental or higher harmonics. Due to the many poles and high fields, insertion devices like wigglers and undulators have a significant impact on the stability of the electron beam with potential degradation of beam quality and life time. Therefore, nonlinear fields must be determined by measurement and evaluated as to their impact on beam stability. Specifically, transverse field roll-off can be a serious detriment to injection in top-up mode and must be corrected. We use magnetic field measurement data to evaluated beam stability by tracking particles using an explicit symplectic integrator in both, transverse and longitudinal planes.

Silicate glass is usually a brittle and plate-like material, and it is difficult to measure the elastic modulus by the traditional method. This paper develops a test method for the glass elastic modulus based on the fundamental frequency of the cantilever beam with an elastic support and a free end. The method installs the beam-type specimen on a semi-rigid support to form an elastic support-free end beam. The analytic solution of the stiffness coefficients of the elastic support is developed by the fundamental frequency of the two specimens with known elastic modulus. Then, the glass elastic modulus is measured by the fundamental frequency of the specimens. The method significantly improves the measurement accuracy and is suitable for the elastic modulus with the beam-type specimen whether the glass is homogeneous or not. Several tests on the elastic modulus measurement are conducted to demonstrate the reliability and validity of the test method.

In - process measurement of surface roughness is introduced which employs an optical method by using laser beam. This makes it possible to detect the surface roughness not only along the circurnferential path but also along the feed direction even during machining. The maximum roughness value is always abtainable from the reading along the feed direction.

In this paper, an experimental technique using a reference accelerometer has been developed to measure the in-plane vibration intensity of a beam. It has the advantages of shortening measurement time and reducing accelerometer phase error comparing with the cross spectral Intensity measurement technique using an accelerometer array. The distribution of the in-plane vibration Intensity over the beam has been measured. (omitted)
