TY - CHAP A1 - Hahn, Oliver A2 - Czichos, Horst T1 - Diagnostics in arts and culture T2 - Handbook of technical diagnostics - Fundamentals and application to structures and systems N2 - Investigations of physical properties and chemical composition generate important data for answering cultural–historical questions that cannot be solved by historical and philological methods alone. In its individual materiality, each cultural asset is the result of a wide variety of influences (e.g. production, storage, restoration, preservation). Due to recent technological developments (e.g. miniaturization of structural units, enlargement of memory capacity), technical diagnostics in art and culture are becoming more and more coveted in such fields of trans-disciplinary research.
