Autonomous Monitoring Unit for Offshore Applications (MONOFFSHORE)
Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
...nstall thousands of structures offshore and require condition monitoring by law (i.e. HSB requirements in Germany).Condition monitoring using ambient vibrations has a good reputation onshore already. VCE has been one of the leading suppliers of these services for 20 years. A major opportunity, but also challenge, is to develop an autonomous, robust monitoring unit for offshore application. VCE is ...

Safe Life Extension management of aged infrastructures networks and industrial plants (SAFELIFE-X)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2015,
The importance of aging of infrastructures, networks and industrial plants will continue to increase because of (a) need to continue operation of these infrastructures, networks and plants beyond the design life-time, (b) need to operate under changed conditions and (c) the increased role of existing plants in the optimized (“smart”) supply and utility networks of the future, e.g. as fall-back sup ...
