Following on from the NERC course for UK-based PhD students and ECR, if you don't qualify for this particular training course please let us know - we will run it again later in the year if there is enough demand...

We are at @ToScAConference this week. @Geo_XCT just gave her talk on #DVC and climate effects on soil slope degradation, now up is our @StrathCivEng Philip Salter talking about biomineralization and #NetZero

DVC stands for Digital Volume Correlation, a technique used in imaging techniques to measures absolute internal strains of the samples before and after deformation. When you see regular patterns like this, most likely it isn't real #DVC #XCT
Somehow I managed to create a #tartan DVC strain field in my data. Doesn't quite look right... #tartan #scottishlife #XCT #DVC
What does a finely ground medium roast Peruvian coffee look like when scanned using X-ray computed tomography? If we ask @K_J_Dobson, then a bit like this! Next up, we'll be determining the permeability using a 3D fluid flow simulation techniques.

And the poll is now closed!!! So we have 30% basalt (i probably know who these votes are 😅) and 70% foams!!! Woow.. The winner is, BASALT! BUT.. it could have easily been a foam!! 😏Well done!

Here is where we control and set all our loads and temperature required for the experiment. Have you noticed how many controllers we have on the rack? 😎 #XCT #Deben
Your favorite XCT game is back!! Guess what it is from this 2D XCT radiography.

We also have the in situ 10kN #Deben cell which can do compression, torsion, extension, heating up to 450C and environmental chamber (-20C,160C). Get in touch if you are interested!! 😎 Either dm or send email at [email protected]

Environmental XCT imaging experiments today with our in situ #Deben 5kN in our #Nikon XCT. You can see the amount of cables that goes through the labyrinth that delivers the fluid for heating/freezing 😎

Our newest experimental x-ray microtomography cell is now proven at the Swiss Light Source TomCAT beamline. A 10 mm OD rock core can have a triaxial stress state (to 500 MPa axial, 30 MPa confining), fluid flow along the core, and a temperature of 573 K. @ffusseis @Dr_Butty
