We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Structural Analysis",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Wireless sensor system eases structural monitoring from
Newtrax Technologies, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Quebec Ministry of Transport came to Newtrax Technologies to improve one of its data acquisition systems".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Prevention is better than cure offshore from
AV Technology: "Neil Parkinson, Technical Director of AV Technology, outlines some of the requirements for offshore structural monitoring".
In October 2007, we covered the news from Kistler Instruments
concerning its Type 8278A accelerometer
- take a look at Lightweight accelerometer survives rough handling
which says: "The Type 8278A accelerometer weighs only 700mg but is highly robust, and operates over a wide temperature range of -75C to +180C and can survive mechanical shocks of up to 10,000g".
Take a look also at the news release from Kistler Instruments, Tri-axial accelerometers offer high accuracy,
as well as Software chosen for aviation project from Altair Engineering,
and CAE suite meets aerospace needs from Ansys.
