Training Course on In situ experiments and Digital Volume Correlation
Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a powerful experimental technique that computes 3D full-field displacement and strain maps from volumes images acquired during a deformation process of a material. DVC is the 3D extension of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) which was first described four decades ago. The emergence of DVC started early 2000s with...
Training Course on Visualisation & quantification of tomographic datasets
A 2 day training course covering theory and computer-based practical works using the Thermo Scientific™ Amira-Avizo Software. Lab/synchrotron X-ray tomography has emerged as one of the most important techniques for research in a wide range of applications including healthcare, energy, food and geology. Advances in the quality of X-ray beams,...
Training Course on Advanced Scripting and Batching of Tomographic Datasets
Although X-ray tomography is an attractive characterisation technique in materials science, it generates a huge amount of data at a fast rate and it can be extremely time consuming to process the data manually. A great benefit to creating scripts and plugins in Avizo is the ability to reuse a workflow on more than one image or to develop a bespoke...
Chemical Imaging and Tomography - Training Course
Jumpstart your understanding of advanced chemical imaging & tomography with this two-day course by Finden. Learn about the fundamental principles, current instrumentation, and how these approaches are applied through a variety of techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD-CT), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XANES-CT), X-ray fluorescence (XRF-CT)...
Thomas Ashton Institute Research Showcase
A showcase of the diverse and innovative research happening in the Thomas Ashton Institute for Risk and Regulatory Research. This will be an in-person research showcase day on Wednesday 10th May at the University of Manchester. This free showcase will kick-off with a morning of presentations exploring the 6 research themes of the Institute: *Digitalisation...

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) - Lunch and Learn Workshop
A Life Cycle Assessment is the act of measuring the environmental impact of a product or service throughout its life cycle, from the resources used to create the product or service, across its use by the user, to it's final end of life destination. An LCA measures the environmental impacts of each distinct part involved in creating and using products...
