Recently, the concept of X-ray diffraction contrast tomography (DCT) has been extended to the case of more widely available laboratory source CT systems. Using well known concepts from geometrical ray optics, an exact formulation is derived for the forward and backward projection geometry encountered under polychromatic cone beam illumination, and it is shown how this projection model can be efficiently implemented in practice. The new projection model is subsequently used for iterative tomographic reconstruction of the three-dimensional shape of a grain from a set of experimentally observed cone beam projections and shows a clear improvement compared to the simplified projection model used previously.

This article examines the relatively new fields of colour and shape trade marks. It was initially feared by some academics that the new marks would encroach on the realms of patent and copyright.  However, the traditional requirements of trade mark law, such as functionality and descriptiveness, have meant that trade marks in colour and shape are extremely hard to acquire if they do not have factual distinctiveness. As colour and shape trade marks have no special restrictions, it is proposed that the combination trade mark theory and analysis from the Diamond T case should be used as a way to make them more accessible. The combination analysis can be easily applied because every product has a three dimensional shape and a fourth dimension of colour.
