Article published in Measurement

In collaboration with Dr. Beata Zima (GdaƄsk University of Technology, Poland) a manuscript on guided wave propagation in complex structures has been accepted for publication in Measurement journal: Abstract: Guided wave-based techniques are particularly effective for corrosion assessment due to their sensitivity to geometric variations and ability to propagate over long distances. However, most existing...

Article published in Structural Health Monitoring

A paper describing the main results of the DROSERA project has been accepted for publication in Structural Health Monitoring journal. Abstract: Delivery drones have become increasingly important in recent years. It is advantageous for commercialization that suppliers are able to deliver orders autonomously and directly to their customers via air transport. However, the safety aspect...
