- Your structure/component instrumented (also on-site) and to measure strains, extensions, forces, crack growth, deformation, temperature, (residual) stresses, stress distribution, etc.?
- To calibrate your (force) sensors?
- To embed or integrate optical fibre sensors?
The capability of performing experimental stress analysis by
- Verifying numerical and analytical models and calculations
- Measuring stress concentrations and stress intensity factors
- Surveying a structure for potential problem sites
- Performing design comparisons
- Tracking damage in (composite) materials
Moreover we have the expertise to perform
- Calibration of force transducers under RvA accreditation (ISO 17025)
- Strain-calibration set-up for (airplane) structures
- Instrumentation and performance measurements (also on-site)
- High temperature (up to 1200 deg C) instrumentation (pyrometry, thermocouples) application
- Embedding techniques for optical fibre sensors
- (Wireless) Sensor technology application for Structural Health Monitoring
