Laboratory for Dynamics of Machines and Structures 

Outdoor-space self-calibrating thermoelasticity-based fatigue damage identification

  • Action: Marie Skłodowska-Curie
  • Call: HORIZON-WIDERA-2023-TALENTS-02
  • Grant number: 101180595
  • Project duration: 1.10.2024. - 30.09.2026.
  • CORDIS EU: Link of the MSCA-ERA project
  • Overarching objetive: The project will develop two fundamental methods and an approach for full-field identification of fatigue damage on outdoor structures. These methods will utilise infrared imaging, image conditioning, and thermal measurements to efficiently and quickly assess damage and conditions.
