iMON research project, Carinthia University of Applied Sciences.

In the four-year research project "Future Sensor Techniques for in-situ Structural Health Monitoring of Concrete Structures" (iMON), Pascal Nicolay, endowed professor for Smart Materials and head of CiSMAT – Carinthia Institute for Smart Materials at the Carinthia University of Applied Sciences, wants to implement the idea of integrating sensors into concrete to enable direct wireless measurements of parameters such as temperature, stress and strain. The project has a budget of 1.2 million euros and is funded by the Austrian Research Promotion Agency FFG.

Many thanks to the Austrian newspaper "Der Standard" for the great article about the iMON project, which was published on December 29, 2021 in the newspaper, and online on 11 January 2022.
