The University of Strathclyde has an extensive and growing portfolio in manufacturing product and process integrity.
Specialist experience and capability in areas such as non-destructive evaluation, metrology, residual stress measurement and materials characterisation underpin a wide range of manufactured products and processes.
We have capablites in the following areas:
Non-destructive evaluation
- Automatic and autonomous inspection techniques including applying digital twin technology
- Contact and non-contact sensor technologies: ultrasonic, eddy current, electromagnetic and optical
- Image processing and data visualisation
- In process inspection and evaluation
- NDE system and mathematical modelling and simulation
- Through-life integrity
Materials integrity and characterisation
- Mechanical, thermal, compositional and microstructural analysis
- Model predictive control in continuous processes
Residual stress
- Destructive and non-destructive residual stress measurement
- Residual stress prediction simulation and modelling
- Residual stress focussed process and optimisation
Measurement
- Contact and non-contact metrology across scales
- Thermal and geo measurement
