ICTMS 2015. 2nd International Conference on Tomography of Materials and Structures

The ICTMS 2015 is the biannual conference of the IntACT (International Association of Computed Tomography).

This four full day congress is dedicated to CT-Scanning for non-medical applications. The 2nd International Conference on Tomography of Materials and Structures will bring together an international group of scientists to discuss a broad range of issues related to the use of computed tomography in materials and structures and all its related topics.

• X-ray and neutron tomography acquisition hardware, software and set-ups.
• Recent advances in CT imaging.
• Case studies including applications on miscellaneous materials and structures.

Presentations will be made within 2 parallel oral sessions. Contributions from universities, government and industry are welcome.
