Quantitative measurements for nano-scale magnetic fields

The magnetic sensor market was €1.7 billion in 2019 and is estimated to reach €2.5 billion by 2025. Growth is anticipated to arise from an increase in consumer electronics, robotics, automated systems, and information technology. In these areas’ nano-scale structures with magnetic properties are used to decrease device size, in...

Expanded humidity measurement capabilities

Monitoring and control of humidity are essential requirements in a variety of Europe’s manufacturing industries. For example, humidity affects pharmaceutical and biochemical product quality and storage lifetimes. Most humidity sensors are based on capacitance measurement technologies that exhibit measurement drift, so regular ...

Validating ion engines for interplanetary travel

Space exploration has provided insights into the formation of the solar system and processes underway on Earth. Missions to Venus, for example, have informed us on the greenhouse effect and the dangers of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Ion engines, a form of electric propulsion, may be preferable to chemical rockets for such miss...

Better electromagnetic compatibility measurements for electronic devices

The number of electronic devices prevalent in society has grown rapidly over the last 40 years and by 2025 it is projected the global market for consumer electronics and appliances alone will reach around 745 billion Euros. Regardless of type, from smart phones and smart meters to wideband radio and radar systems, almost all el...

Aircraft engine at altitude

Reducing aero-engine operational costs

Responding to the international drive for improved fuel-efficiency, leading aircraft engine manufacturers are designing smaller, lighter engines, operating at higher temperatures and pressures than those currently in service. Such engines also ‘bleed’ hot, high-pressure air to support other important aircraft systems, typically...

Enforcing vehicle weight restrictions

Damage to rural bridges throughout the EU is being caused by lorries carrying heavy loads that may far exceed their design criteria. For example, in Estonia there is increasing concern over damage to the road infrastructure due to heavy lorries carrying felled trees from forests to saw-mills on country roads. Laws are in force ...
