'Virtual time freezing' technique lets scientists see inside spinning engines and tools

Researchers have developed a real-time imaging system that can capture images of fast-spinning objects over long durations. Real-time monitoring of rotating parts such as the turbine blades used in power plants or the fan blades of jet engines is critical for detecting early signs of damage—such as wear or cracks—helping prevent serious failures and reducing maintenance needs.

Virtual time-freezing technology lets us see inside spinning machines

A groundbreaking new technology is allowing scientists to see inside spinning engines and tools with remarkable clarity, even while they are running at incredibly high speeds. This innovation, developed by researchers at Jinan University in China, is called “virtual time freezing.” It offers a way to capture real-time images of fast-spinning objects without the usual […] The post Virtual time-freezing technology lets us see inside spinning machi…
