Accurate representation of particle dimensions is essential for reliable sedimentation analysis and assessment of settling dynamics. The use of equivalent diameters-such as Stokes, Feret, and volume-based diameters-introduces approximation errors when replacing real particle dimensions, especially for irregularly shaped particles. This study quantifies these errors by capturing high-resolution 2D images of particles within a bentonite, commonly found in bentonite suspensions characteristic of those occurring in ri...

The article describes commonly used imaging techniques for monitoring solar farms using drones, highlighting the advantages of each method and the benefits of precise flight path planning. Thermal imaging is discussed for its ability to detect temperature variations and identify potential issues like cell degradation and electrical failures without physical inspection. High-resolution imaging provides detailed visual inspections to identify physical damages, dirt accumulation, and shading issues, enhancing mainten...
