Description: An engineering commentary for everyone on the first Wednesday of every month
The title of this post is the title of a talk that I will deliver during the Pint of Science Festival in Liverpool later this month. At last year’s festival I spoke about the very small: Revealing the invisible: real-time motion of virus particles [see ‘ Fancy a pint of science ‘ on April 27th, 2022]. This year I am moving up the size scale and from biomedical engineering to aerospace engineering to talk about condition monitoring in aircraft structures based on our recent research in the INSTRUCTIVE [see
The University of Liverpool was the coordinator of the DIMES project and the other partners were Empa , Dantec Dynamics GmbH and Strain Solutions Ltd . Strain Solutions Limited was the coordinator of the INSTRUCTIVE project in which the other participant was the University of Liverpool. Airbus was the project manager for both projects.
The DIMES and INSTRUCTIVE projects received funding from the Clean Sky 2 Joint Undertaking under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 820951 and 6968777 respectively.
