Abstract The aim of this study is to determine the thickness distribution of a food package using a non-destructive method. Initially, thickness measurements were carried out using an experimental procedure for thermoformed samples that were used for food packaging. Additionally, in this study, image analysis was used for the first time to determine the thickness distribution of the thermoformed products non-destructively. Image analysis software was employed for the estimation of thickness distribution. Measured thickness results were compared to those estimated using image analysis. Based on the results of the current study, image analysis may be an alternative method for non-destructive testing of thermoformed food packages even in a mass production line. Image analysis can be used to determine not only thickness distribution but also the weakest regions in a food package.

The correlation of molecular events with structural changes within the cell requires a non-destructive relaxation technique that can be adapted to measure such cellular changes in a time range of milliseconds to minutes. Light scattering relaxation techniques have proved useful for such studies as they can often be measured simultaneously or in parallel with absorption or fluorescence spectral changes characterizing molecular or macromolecular processes. Such techniques are proving useful in the study of photobiological processes such as visual photoreception where specific cytological changes produced photochemically can be effected by alternate controlled perturbations such as osmotic shrinking or swelling of cell organelles and (or) whole cells. This paper illustrates how light scattering relaxation spectrophotometry can be applied to the correlation of molecular and cellular events in visual photoreceptors.

Paper deals with dust mass concentration measurement in working environment. The measurement is focused to respirable dust fraction, which is dangerous for people. Light scattering principle of dust mass concentration measurement is used for this purpose. Also cyclone as mechanical way of separation of respirable fraction can be used for this purpose. Next problem is determination of uncertainty of this measurement.

One area of research at Georgia Tech recently has focused on the measurement of Card-web density. This research is part of a study to spin yarns directly from a card web thus eliminating several processes. A Card-Spinning system has been designed which can quantify the cross-machine and machine direction web non-uniformity using a non-contact web density measurement technique. The web monitoring system for Card-Spinning uses a line scan camera to capture the image continuously and is equipped with an image analysis program, to characterize the web quantitatively, predicting the product quality. A multifunctional graphical interface has been designed for the image analysis program, which can be used to calculate the statistics for the non-uniformity of the card web both online and offline. This would help in characterizing the nature of non-uniformity and to understand the system better before employing methods to improve it. This paper discusses the development and results from the work.
