Abstract: A remote sensor and associated data processor, performs concurrent analysis of backscattered signals from a multi-beam (6-10) acoustic Doppler emitter/receiver (1) positioned against the inside wall of a conveying pipe (2) or channel. Range-gating of the return signals allows independent analysis of discrete volumes of backscattered signal data corresponding to the distribution, concentration and travel velocity of small individual volumes or bins of water and suspended solids (4). Velocity is derived from the measured Doppler frequency shift for each bin. Relative solids concentration is estimated as a function of the measured intensity of the backscattered signals.

Abstract: A photopolymerizable composition comprises a polymerizable epoxy-containing material, a polymerizable monomer or monomers containing one or more ##STR1## groups wherein R is H or CH.sub.3, a cationic photoinitiator, a radical-type photoinitiator and an alcohol accelerator.
