Light Structures
Structural health monitoring (SHM) systems are recognized as a key element in a modern and efficient approach to structural lifecycle management.
Fiber Optic SHM systems from Light Structures AS, have been in operation in vessels for over 20 years, focusing on real-time measurement of global and local loads, deformations, fatigue development, and early-warning systems limiting the risk of overloading events. Now also with the latest of Digital Twin technology. First developed for the Royal Norwegian Navy, systems have now been successfully installed on the platforms of several Navies and Coast guards, in addition to civilian applications in commercial shipping, oil exploration, and elsewhere. Typical references from the energy sector are Total Energies, FPSOs, Petrobras FPSOs, Modec FPSOs, Equinor FSU/FPSOs, SEVAN type vessels, as well as many LNGCarriers/Tanker/ etc. And future Offshore wind parks.
