Aviation Electronics Fault Detection

As today’s military and commercial aircraft age past their teen years, the many kilometers of wiring buried deep within their structures begin to crack and fray. Once thought to be rare and benign, such faults are found by the hundreds in a typical aircraft. Unlike obvious cracks in a wing or an engine, damaged wire is extremely difficult to detect, but the resulting arcing and electromagnetic... [Read more]

Anchor Cable Fault Detection

In collaboration with the Dam Safety Interest Group of CEA Technologies, Inc. (CEATI), a consortium of electrical power organizations, LiveWire has applied its fault detection technology to potential faults in post-tensioned anchor cables embedded in concrete dam structures. The on-site tests revealed that LiveWire’s SSTDR technology can be used to detect and locate changes in baseline anchor... [Read more]
