Stockpile Stewardship Quarterly

چکیده
What do physicists and paparazzi have in common? They know that a picture is worth a thousand words! For this issue of the Stockpile Stewardship Quarterly, the theme is advances in imaging diagnostics. Not only do the images tell a story, as asserted in the old axiom, about the dynamics of high-explosives, laser or pulsed power-driven events, but they are also becoming very quantitative. The quantitative nature is driven by our need to compare to simulations and to achieve accuracy levels driven by our Qualification of Margins to Uncertainty methodology. Four articles in this issue demonstrate our improvements in selfemission imaging (x-rays and neutrons) plus radiography.

متن کاملMeasurements of iron concentrate stockpile weight, from laser mapping to investigation of effective parameters on surface density
Determination of stockpile weight and stockpile inventory are critical to any quarry or mining operation, whether it is required by accounting firms or used internally for the quarterly balance of production and sales. Generally, errors and problems originate from two factors. Volume of stockpile that is traditionally worked out from the mapping results has a low accuracy due to irregular shape...
