Acoustic Emission Monitoring in Cultural Heritage Applications

Acoustic Emission Monitoring in Cultural Heritage Applications

Reliable prediction of early-stage damage--progression of defects or confirming certain predictions at an early stage--is a key discipline in cultural heritage research. The Acoustic Emission (AE) method is one of the tools that fulfills this requirement, because it’s a highly sensitive technique. It is already applied to many projects in the cultural heritage community in the Unite States, Europe and Australia. Presenter: Vallen Systeme GmbH, Wolfratshausen, Germany
