OCT is a technique based on low-coherence interferometry to measure light reflections from refractive index interfaces and is a suitable technique for imaging the interfaces in a semi-transparent material and therefore for measuring coating thickness.
For a subset of 26 of these specimens, matched fresh-frozen material was available for measuring telomerase enzymatic activity and telomere length (see below).
This becomes more important if the index test comes with large patient burden, is costly, the disease is rare, and when stored biological material is used for measuring new tests, e.g. from proteomics, metabolomics or genomics.
Nanoindentation is a technique commonly used for measuring material elastoplastic properties.
Largely due to forces related to globalization, the components that are relevant for measuring material power in today's geo-political space will only continue to shift.
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has become a powerful tool for measuring material properties in biology and imposing mechanical boundary conditions on samples from single molecules to cells and tissues.
The aim of the present study was to (i) develop a material affluence scale (MAS) for measuring adolescent SES in health inequality research in developing countries, (ii) compare the association of the MAS with the parental SES measures (parental occupation and education), and (iii) evaluate the association of parental SES and MAS with key health and health behaviour indicators.
Aimed to an advanced glass fiber reinforced composite material, a series of experiments for measuring thermal physical properties of this material were conducted, and the corresponding performance curves were obtained through statistic analyzing.
Hopefully you've just come to the same realisation we did one rainy afternoon during my PhD: the mechanism that underlies this advanced physics apparatus for measuring materials in massive magnets is almost identical to a theremin.
It begins with some traditional methods for measuring materials that predate computer graphics and it follows with new methods that have been developed in the area where computer vision and computer graphics overlap.
