In-Line Service For Internal Inspection Of Unpiggable Buried Oil Pipelines Using Long Range Ultrasound Guided Waves In Fifty Metre Segments (PIGWAVES)
Start date: Apr 1, 2013, End date: Mar 31, 2015,
This proposal will aim to develop the enabling technology that will enable existing pipe crawling robots (pigs) to provide internal inspection of pipe walls using long range ultrasound guided waves (LRUG) deployed in pipe segments of about fifty metre length.The aim is to perform total volume inspection far more rapidly, accurately and cheaply than is presently achieved with magnetic and ultrasoni ...

Online Remote Condition Monitoring of Tidal Stream Generators (REMO)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2014,
Tidal stream power is a very environmentally attractive renewable energy source whose exploitation is being retarded by operation and maintenance problems which cause very low availability times, as poor as 25%.So the REMO project gaol is to provide an enabling technology for tidal stream energy, by reducing the projected life cycle maintenance costs of tidal stream energy by 50% and the generato ...

A wireless network with autonomously powered and active long range acoustic nodes for total structural health monitoring of bridges (WI-HEALTH)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
Wireless sensor networks have been identified as a research priority by the European Technology Platform on Smart Systems Integration (EPoSS). Recognising this, the SME's in this Project are seeking EC funding to develop a prototype wide-area wireless sensor network with autonomous nodes containing non-destructive (NDT) sensors, for structural health monitoring (SHM) of large structures, specifica ...

Continuous Reliable Advanced Novel Efficient Structural Health Monitoring system for crane inspection applications (CRANESInspect)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
There is a vital need for systems to continuously monitor the structural health of the cranes. Cranes are of the most common machinery used in industry. Cranes of any type are used for the manipulation of loads, depending on load specifications as well as task requirements, accessibility and cost. They are installed in industrial plants, construction sites, shipyards, ports, etc.In 2008, there wa ...
