X-Ray Analysis
One of MESH's first projects as a company
was to help develop a method for determining the composition of manmade
fibers. The client, DuPont, requested that MESH extract the pertinent
measurements from the raw spectra that was collected on an x-ray
goniometer.
MESH started with the raw spectra (x-ray counts vs.
reflection angle) and extracted the salient metrics using signal
processing techniques including baselining, curve fitting, peak finding,
and area measurement.
This software has remarkable longevity. It was first
developed in 1985 and is still in use today, two decades later.
