A very special hightlight was our vist on Monday to MPI Greifswald. MPI is concerned with investigating the principles underlying a power plant, which – like the sun – will produce energy from the fusion of light atomic nuclei.
Gantner Instruments specially developed sensors for temperature and strain measurement for the project, which are otherwise unavailable on the market. Mr. Kallmeyer – one of the scientists – has declared and shown us much – so we have obtained all a good overview about one of our biggest projects.

The Vasa Museum in Stockholm houses Vasa, a 17th-century Swedish warship raised from the seabed in 1961. Almost completely preserved, she is both a cultural icon and a full-scale research platform for naval architecture, materials science, and maritime archaeology. But preserving a 400-year-old oak hull on land poses a critical structural challenge: without buoyancy, the ship’s weight is carried through discrete support points, and slow deformation has already been detected. To protect Vasa for future generations, the museum is replacing the original display cradle with an adjustable steel support system equipped with a real-time force monitoring and long-term structural health monitoring (SHM) solution.
