Sensors, Algorithms and Applications for Structural Health Monitoring

Bastien Chapuis received his PhD degree in 2010 for his work prepared at the French Aerospace Lab (ONERA). Since then, he is research engineer at CEA LIST where he coordinates several industrial and academic research projects on NDT. Since 2017 he is senior expert in NDT and SHM at CEA and is the current Chair of IIW sub-commission V-D “Structural Health Monitoring”. His research includes performance demonstration using simulation, signal processing for ultrasonic defect detection and development of structural health monitoring technologies.

Eric Sjerve holds a B.Sc. in Physics from the University of British Columbia (1990), and a Ph.D. from the University of Toronto in the field of applied laser physics (1996).  He has been involved with the commercialization of NDT and related technologies for over 20 years, primarily in the petrochemical sector in Western Canada.  This time has primarily been spent working on practically-oriented technique development for field usage in a variety of different NDT methods.  More recently, his work has centred on integrating engineering and robotics into the services IRISNDT offers. Eric is also the IIW Commission V Chairman on NDT and Quality Assurance of Welded Products, where his work has been focused on publication of IIW Handbooks on automated ultrasonic testing, austenitic weld inspection and phased arrays, ISO standardization of inspection techniques and more recently NDT applied to additive manufacturing.  His position at IRISNDT is Chief Technology Officer where he leads innovation activities within the company.
