Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has become one of the most important tools to screen humans in medicine, virtually every modern hospital is equipped with an NMR tomograph. The potential of NMR in 3D imaging tasks is by far greater, but…
Granular flows through pipes show interesting phenomena, e.g. clogging and density waves, 1/f-noise. These things are fairly good studied by computer-experiments, but there is a lack in theoretical and analytical consideration. We introduce…
