SYSTEM FOR NON-DESTRUCTIVE CONDITION MONITORING OF METALLIC STRUCTURES, IN PARTICULAR STEEL PIPES AND STRUCTURES AND STRUCTURES MADE OF FIBRE COMPOSITE MATERIALS AS WELL AS HYBRID MATERIALS

摘要

The present invention concerns a system for non-destructive testing of a sample using a combination of intelligent sensors and radio units which allow continuous monitoring, providing data obtained by non-destructive testing. Correspondingly, this invention also provides a method for non-destructive testing of a specimen using a combination of intelligent sensors and radio units that enable continuous monitoring, providing data obtained by non-destructive testing. A special aspect is the self-certifying design of the system or procedure.
