Non-Destructive Structural Testing
Learn how engineers use Rayleigh and Love waves to 'listen' to bridges and find hidden cracks before they cause problems. A simple look at the science of the Surface Wave Hub.
Read StoryLearn how city planners are using tiny ground vibrations to find hidden underground voids and prevent sinkholes from swallowing our streets.
Read StoryDiscover how scientists at the Surface Wave Hub use Rayleigh and Love waves to 'hear' cracks in bridges and weak spots in soil before they cause problems.
Read StorySinkholes are a scary reality of urban life, but new seismic tech is helping find them before they open. By 'listening' to the city's natural vibrations, researchers can map hidden voids and old pipes.
Read StoryBridge safety is going high-tech as researchers use surface waves to 'hear' cracks before they appear. Discover how sound vibrations are replacing drills in the quest to keep our infrastructure standing.
Read StoryScientists are listening to the city's natural hum to find hidden sinkholes and buried pipes, using microtremors to map the ground without digging.
Read StoryResearchers are using the science of surface waves to listen to the health of our bridges and tunnels, finding hidden cracks before they become big problems.
