Metal Structures Studied in New Dimension

A new software program has been designed to reduce the time taken to detect weak points in large structures such as bridges, cranes, oil platforms, and mining equipment from a number of days to several minutes. This novel program, created by Akselos a company based at EPFL’s Innovation Park, integrates 3D and 1D elements, and is more dependable than the traditional technique. It is also capable of accomplishing all of this with accuracy and unparalleled speed.
