Abstract The vision of a deep learning-empowered non-destructive evaluation technique aligns perfectly with the goal of zero-defect manufacturing, enabling manufacturers to detect and repair defects actively. However, the dearth of data in manufacturing is one of the biggest obstacles to...

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is commonly used in the health assessment of wind turbines. The system is installed during construction of the structure and consists of wired sensors connected to a central data acquisition unit via cables. In most cases, the data acquisition unit is located...

Weak electric signals termed as “Pressure Stimulated Currents, PSC” are generated and detected while cement based materials are found under mechanical load, related to the creation of cracks and the consequent evolution of cracks’ network in the bulk of the specimen. During the experiment...

In this paper the initial analysis of NDT laboratory is presented by means of agent-based modelling. For the purpose of analysis, laboratory is taken into account as a complex system consisting of three agents; equipment, personnel and specimens. Interaction between the agents is circular. In...
