Tambov: TSTU Publishing House, 2015. — 124 s. — ISBN 978-5-8265-1413-9 . It is devoted to the theoretical and practical aspects of the creation of microwave methods and means of operational non-destructive testing of thermophysical characteristics and humidity of materials and finished products with unilateral access to their surface. Presented physico-mathematical models of temperature fields in the studied objects with non-contact unilateral exposure to them by the electromagnetic field of the microwave range .. Newly developed , [CM Patent-protected methods and microprocessor systems , in which the electromagnetic microwave radiation when exposed to objects is focused into a line, plane or circle of specified dimensions by specially designed original microwave hardware. The analysis of errors of the created methods and means on the basis of analytical relations obtained with the use of mathematical models of objects of measurements, measuring procedures and conditions of measurements. is given. Designed for scientific, engineering and technical workers, university teachers, graduate students, students
