- Pressure Sensor for Monitoring Mine Safety
- Stress meter developed for monitoring rock stresses in underground mines. Modeling changing contact conditions can be cumbersome in finite element systems which rely solely on the relatively old-fashioned "friction/gap" type of elements. This is not so in LUSAS, where state-of-the-art "slide line" facilities made the modeling of the two contact...

- Cost-Effective Bridge Assessment
- Many steel bridges have been shown to fail assessment to design code BS5400 Part 3. Two consulting firms, both using LUSAS Bridge have proved a 40 tone capacity on a structure that, according to the code, had insufficient lateral restraint and would have required a severe weight restriction. By using...
