Sensors And Their Applications Viii Proceedings Of The Eighth Conference On Sensors And Their Applications Held In Glasgow Uk 7 10 September 1997

Sensors and Their Applications VIII provides a valuable forum for individuals from all over the world working in all areas of sensors to meet and discuss the developments and applications of transducers and sensor systems. The strength of the sensor community in the UK reinforces the importance of this volume as a valuable reference for all workers in the field.

This tenth in the series of conferences provides an overview of recent developments in the wide range of fields covered by sensors, and in-depth coverage of the latest work. It demonstrates the range of applications for sensor and actuator technology in aerospace, remote sensing, environmental sensing, medical / health sensing, automotive sensing, energy monitoring and solar energy. It is a valuable addition to the libraries of researchers in all areas of sensor technology and application.

This book contains the invited and contributed papers presented at the seventh conference in the well-known series of conferences on Sensors and their Applications. The invited review papers provide an overview of developments and the contributed papers give in-depth coverage of research results across the whole field.

With research continuing to expand and develop, the marketplace for sensors and instrumentation remains one of the most significant for the United Kingdom, the European Union, and the economies of major developed nations. Sensors and Their Applications XI discusses novel research in the field of sensors and transducers, and provides valuable insight into new and topical applications of the technology. The book records the breadth and quality of the field and acts as a topical record of work in sensors and their applications. It will serve as an invaluable reference for physicists, engineers, and chemists working in this area of technology for many years to come.

Proceedings of a conference held in Manchester, England, in September 1993. Papers are divided into sections on gas, silicon, acoustic, ultrasonic, optical, and biomedical sensors, flow measurement and process tomography, and sensor applications. Topics include an artificial nose based on ASICs and conducting polymers, inductively coupled high temp.
