Book Description
'Advances in
Measurements and Instrumentation: Reviews', Vol. 2
Book Series contains 9 chapters written by 21
authors from 7 countries: Brazil, China, France, India, Mexico, Russia
and Spain. But it is not a set of reviews. As usually, each chapter
contains the extended state-of-the-art followed by new, unpublished
before, obtained results. This volume
is covering some aspects related to metrology, measurements of
physical and chemical quantities, calibration, sensor instrumentation
and networks.
