Structural Health Monitoring in Offshore Wind Foundation
TINY Vibration Recorder & Industrial Accelerometer
Application
Vrije Universiteit Brussel, represented by Professor Christof Devriendt, has integrated Micromega-Dynamics products for operational monitoring in the wind power sector.
The primary products used are the IAC accelerometers, and TINY Vibration Recorder, which are essential for structural health monitoring of offshore wind foundations and other structures.
“The Micromega accelerometers are robust and reliable sensors with a broad range of sensitivities, making them perfect for a broad range of structural health monitoring applications such as offshore wind foundation monitoring and bridge monitoring.”
