Although the case study focuses on an aircraft structure, the concept has potential application to a wide variety of different engineering assets across the aerospace, civil and maritime sectors.
Introduction The development recently of a low-cost compact thermoelastic stress analysis (TSA) capability [1] could have significant implications for the structural management of high value engineering assets.
The authors contend that the exclusive use of photon detectors in these systems has hindered a more widespread use of TSA across the broader engineering community, and especially within aerospace.
Over several years, MiTE has been applied in various aspects of this major engineering program, mostly in relation to the validation of FE model predictions [4,17], and the assessment of structural repairs to critical regions.
