S
oftware
Acellent's software works in tandem with our sensors and hardware to
detect and characterize structural anomalies in metals and composites
due to the presence of cracks, corrosion, debonds, and delaminations.
With the push of a button, our software instructs the hardware to
interrogate the structure by collecting data. The software analyzes the
data and presents the results in a clear, easy-to-understand display.
SHM Composite
SHM Composite is our state-of-the-art structural health monitoring software for
in-field applications for detection and quantification of damage in large
composite structures. SHM Composite includes all the features needed to
perform in-field detection of damage under real-world environmental conditions.
SHM Patch
SHM Patch is Acellent next-generation software for monitoring critical and
often hard to inspect “hot-spot” areas and components, for fatigue cracks in
aircraft, helicopters, pipelines and civil structures.
AIM
Acellent's Impact Monitoring (AIM) software monitors structures for impact
events. AIM provides in real-time the location, time and force of impact events.
The information is displayed visually as well as can be “voiced” by the
computer to alert the operator that an impact event has occurred.
ACESS & In-Sight
ACESS (ACEllent Software Suite) is our lab based software that
detects damages in composite and metal structures. ACESS
provides a diagnostic image of changes to the structure that are
indicative of damage. In-Sight is our lab based software that
detects localized damage in smaller structures. It’s similar to
ACESS but is customized for use with our ScanSentry hardware.

SHM Composite
Self-Diagnostics
Built-in sensor self-diagnostic function to ensure all sensors are working
properly and there are no open or short circuits on any of the channels.
Path Definitions
Automatically defines optimal gain settings for every actuator-sensor path
and frequency.
Automated Data

Analysis Capability
Automatically collects and analyzes data in real-time, calculating damage
size based on calibration curves generated in the software.
Environmental
Compensation
State-of-the-Art algorithms to automatically find the best matched baseline
data with signal manipulation (if required) to minimize environmental effects
(e.g. temperature, loading, boundary condition etc.)
Damage detection is based on the First Arrival and Reflection Time Window

windows of the signal. The statistical outlier method is used to determine
Level I
the affected signal paths.
Diagnostic Imaging for Automated State-of-the-Art damage detection visualization:
Level II & III Location Location of damage position inside the given sensor network is based on a

atch
SHM Patch is Acellent next-generation software for
monitoring critical and often hard to inspect “hot-spot”
areas and components, for fatigue cracks in aircraft,
helicopters, pipelines and civil structures.
Hot-spots are specific geometric locations in a
structure that are more prone to damage under
operation and variable loading conditions.
