- Development of novel linear phased array techniques
- New more powerful flaw detectors with the ability to drive sensors as phased arrays.
- New and novel dry contact sensor technology based on Macro-Fibre Composites (MFCs) that generate more power but that are also cheaper to manufacture.
- Methods of application for “one off” and continuous condition-monitoring.
- Sensor array designs that are capable of measuring motion in all three planes.
- Awareness programmes both for managers in SME inspection service providers and for large enterprise end-user companies.
- Guidelines for equipment specification, application, and operator training and certification (a basis for future standards).
- Training programmes in linear phased array techniques.
