Fiber optics & predictable physical models towards load analysis in mechatronic systems (FiberMech_SBO) KU Leuven
For the validation of prototypes in mechatronics, strain and temperature measurements with a known small uncertainty are required to provide feedback in the prototype design process. This applies for example to the thermal evaluation of electric motors where operating at high-power density may lead to excessive temperatures, or to the verification of high strain levels in extensive load cycles within mechanical structures (system housing ...
