Collection of ENEA technology and expertise
Structural Health Monitoring custom systems for mechanical, civil and geotechnical engineering
Custom monitoring systems ready for installation during the construction and recovery of large civil engineering works, prepared as sensor chains equipped with automated remote acquisition system.
Application sectors
Problem to solve
It is proposed a solution to the lack of continuous monitoring of the integrity and conservation status of infrastructures and buildings, which makes possible the occurrence of disasters both as a result of extreme natural events and intensive use.
Description
• Custom fiber optic strain gauge sensor chains: based on a design developed at ENEA during previous development for demonstration applications and prototype implementations, they have many advantages over existing commercial products; The project aims at optimising the product with reference to the needs of industrialising production and fully satisfying market demands. • Multifunctional data logger: a highly specialized data acquisition and processing system for the reference application; it is developed during the project as an evolution of a system (G801) that the industrial partner produces for traditional technology, with G802 trade name forecast; integrates sensor management capabilities based on traditional (electrical) and fiber optic technology.
