Fuse-like devices replacing linear sensors - working examples of percolation sensors in operational airliners and chemical installations KU Leuven
© 2016 Taylor & Francis Group, London. In order to detect diverse failure modes and damage sizes, sensors in traditional Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) for aircraft and other engineering structures usually work in a quasi-linear mode. Therefore, also when used in a Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) system, their performance is limited by operation-dependent baseline variations as well as by signal interference in complicated structures. ...
