IDEA #9YWPL8 Smart fatigue sensor for structure component residual lifetime monitoring

The new type fatigue sensor is proposed for life time and performance of structure elements monitoring. It is a compact sealed device (size of a mobile phone) attachable directly to the area of interest on the structure component, subjected to fatigue damage. Advantages of the device are following: • Real time residual life time control possibility. • Temperature changes do not affect the measurements. • Non-contact optical measurement does not influence structure component performance. • Designed to be used in engineering structures or vehicles (bridges, buildings, industrial equipment, aircrafts, vessels etc.). • Can be both in separate device variant or integrated in to on-board computer system.
