Structural health monitoring

Description

One of the main causes of catastrophic aircraft accidents is material fatigue. A solution to this problem is structural health monitoring which enables the systematic monitoring and analyzing of a system or material over time. This is done through the collection of periodic measurements to observe material and geometric changes of structures in the field of engineering, such as bridges, airplanes, and buildings.
