Development of excellence in non-invasive diagnostic systems for industrials and scientific applications

Objective

The present project, called DENIDIA, foresees for the Department of Computer Engineering of the Technical University of Lodz, Poland, to reach in the next three years excellence in non-invasive diagnostic systems for industrial and research applications. The non-invasive techniques considered in this ToK are based on the tomography technology. The host institution has been acquiring a lot of knowledge in terms of data acquisition, reconstruction, and visualisation of Electrical Capacitance Tomography, a system particularly well adapted for real time industrial process measurements like multi-phase flow in pneumatic conveying.

The Department of Lodz will carry on technological and programming research on ECT to develop systems with a higher resolution and three- dimensional acquisitions, without losing the main advantage of fast data acquisition. The host institution has also the goal to widen its computing knowledge in terms of software development to visualise, process and analyse data from different fields of applications acquired from different tomography set-ups. The Department believes that these objectives will be achieved by acquiring more scientific knowledge from other fields of research which use non invasive techniques (i.e. chemical engineering, materials science, medical science), and by widening its expertise to technological and programming knowledge from other systems like Optical, gamma-ray, X-ray and dual modality tomography techniques.

The project proposes, for a global cost of around 945000 euros, the recruitment/secondment of experienced researchers, and staff training in 5 partner institutions from France, UK, Norway and Malaysia, which all respond to the need of the proposal. A ToK-dev scheme is the most appropriate action which can enable the objectives to be reached, and allow the participant, which is located in a less-favoured country of The EU, to be a stronger leader in this field of research at the national and international levels.
