An inclinometer is one of the most established instruments used in geotechnical engineering to monitor ground and structural movement. Engineers use inclinometers to track lateral deformation within slopes, embankments, retaining [...]

Block caving is one of the most efficient methods of extracting large, low-grade ore bodies, enabling high production rates with relatively low operating costs. However, it is also one of [...]

Deep underground, changes can develop within a rock mass long before they become visible at the surface or within mine workings. Small fractures, fault slip, blasting, excavation, and changes in [...]

Infrastructure rarely fails without developing warning signs first. Mines, pipelines, tailings facilities, transportation networks, and other critical assets can experience changing loads, deformation, ground movement, or material deterioration over weeks, [...]

Earthquakes can occur with little or no actionable warning. For infrastructure located in seismically active areas, understanding the hazard and maintaining appropriate monitoring can be critical to reducing operational and [...]

Slope instability remains one of the most significant safety, operational, and financial risks in open-pit mines, waste dumps, tailings facilities, rail corridors, and civil infrastructure projects. While a slope may [...]

Protect pipelines, structures, and critical infrastructure with continuous fiber-optic strain monitoring built for engineers, operators, and asset owners who can’t afford unexpected failures. Why Distributed Strain Sensing Can’t Wait $1.8B [...]
