CW Tech Days: Composites in the Hydrogen Economy agenda finalized

Day 2 of CW Tech Days: Composites in the Hydrogen Economy will feature speakers from leaders in hydrogen refueling stations, conformable tanks, glass fiber Type IV pressure vessels and in-vessel sensors for process and lifetime use monitoring. Photo Credit: (top left, counterclockwise): PowerTap Hydrogen, Noble Gas Systems, UMOE Advanced Composites and Com&Sens. CompositesWorld, the trade publication serving the global composites manufacturing industry, reports that it has finalized the agenda for the upcoming online event: CW Tech Days: Composites in the Hydrogen Economy. It will be held May 18 and May 25, 11:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. EDT each day. Using hydrogen to replace fossil fuels has been identified as a sustainable, achievable option for industries and countries to reach zero emissions by 2050. The goal: Reduce the impacts of climate change by controlling emissions and thus keep global temperature rise to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. Already, dramatic funding worldwide h

SMILab develops new low-cost strain sensor

Researchers from the Smart Management of Infrastructure Laboratory (SMILab), located in the Center for Advanced Research Computing at The University of New Mexico, have developed a new strain sensor as a part of the Low-Cost Efficient Wireless Intelligent Sensors (LEWIS) project. The new sensor, called the LEWIS-S, is easy to use, wireless, and can be offered at about 5% of the cost of standard commercial strain sensing equipment. SMILab director and assistant professor Fernando Moreu noted, “Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has been receiving significant attention in the community as a means to quantify the different levels of performance and safety of structural systems, communities, and emergency responses. Strain sensors can measure the stresses of structures in normal loads or extreme loads and report [to] owners or communities about their condition. One of the cores of sensor systems are the data acquisition systems that enable collecting data of interest for planners, man

Structural health monitoring can reduce costs for cash-strapped operators

Last November, the International Air Transport Association said it expected the airline industry to make a loss of $118.5bn in 2020, followed by $38.7bn in 2021. The numbers make grim reading for the industry, but some engineering advances have helped to reduce costs in recent years. One of the most prevalent is structural health monitoring (SHM), which uses a mix of sensors and actuators, ‘smart’ materials and energy harvesting to detect minor damage to aircraft structures before it becomes bigger and more dangerous.
