IET Scotland South West Events

A visit to see the behind-the-scenes technology collections centre of the National Museums of Scotland, led by the Principal Curator of Technology. We will have the chance to view some of the hundreds of thousands of technology objects from the microscopic to the enormous that are not normally on display. We will be given an insight into the research work that the objects support and the conservation work as well as a chance to visit the object digitisation laboratory.

Explosions present forensic investigators with some of the most challenging incident scenes encountered. This short presentation will provide an overview of the forensic processes involved in recording, recovery, analysis and interpretation of evidence associated with explosion scenes and devices. The evaluation of explosion scenes to determine the nature and composition of explosive devices will be considered.
