Geoid determination using an innovative, robust, and efficient algorithm

In a geographical information system, latitude, longitude, and height are commonly used to represent the location of a point on or near the Earth’s surface. The first two, called horizontal coordinates, refer to reference ellipsoid and are known as geodetic latitude (?) and longitude (?). The third coordinate, i.e. height of a point is referenced […]

Microelectromechanical Low-power Strain Sensor for structural health monitoring applications – Phase 2

Structural health monitoring (SHM) of airplanes requires very compact and low-power stain sensors. Therefore, IPR wants to investigate how a commercial micro-fabrication process can be used to implement its MEMS sensor design, particularly using the electro-conductive properties of doped silicon vs. metal-coated crystalline silicon or polysilicon. The project will consist of a conceptual study of […]
