Acoustic time-of-flight (ToF) measurements enable noninvasive material characterization,
acoustic imaging, and defect detection and are commonly used in industrial process control …

Ultrasonic flowmeters with a small or medium diameter are widely used in process
industries. The flow field disturbance on acoustic propagation caused by a vortex near the …

With the extensive applications of pressure pipelines in various fields, research on pipeline
pressure nonintrusive detection technology has become a promising measurement …

Molten steel level is difficult to measure as a result of high-temperature medium and the
covering flux. The characteristic of the steelmaking process is that a strong stratification of …

This paper proposes an ultrasonic measurement system based on least squares support
vector machines (LS-SVM) for inline measurement of particle concentrations in …

(74) Attorney, Agent, or Firm—Fletcher Yoder, PC (57) ABSTRACT A system includes a
safety system having one or more valves configured to block a flow of fluid from a source to a …

High-temperature medium and time-varying covering flux lead to the difficulty of molten steel
level measurement. For the measurement, in our previous work, a novel principle by using …

Pressure vessels, widely used in industries, are safety-critical equipment. Nonintrusive
pressure measurement is aimed to monitor the pressure without destroying the vessel's …

The purpose of this work is to explore the use of optical resonators based on the Whispering
Gallery Mode phenomenon (WGM), to determine the variation of the internal pressure of a …
