Active thermography is well suited for the detection of delaminations and cracks in façade elements like plaster and tiles. Not only artificial heating but also solar heating can be used if the adjustment of the façade and the weather conditions are suitable. Optical methods like laser scanners, photogrammetric methods and crack tracking sensors are providing geometrical 3D data which can be used for a 3D mapping of thermograms and for providing data with higher geometrical resolution. Thus, by the combination and fusion of these data, a comprehensive mapping and monitoring of damages of façade systems is possible.
The sources of human error
(2017)
Perfect flawless performance does not exist. Yet we expect people in organisations with high safety and reliability demand to perform at their best so that the systems designed, operated and maintained by people do not fail. Still, even the best guarded systems fail. The goal of the study of human factors is avoiding the negative effects of the interaction between humans and technology as well as decreasing them to increase the well-being of people, functioning of the systems, and safety. This is achieved by identifying human performance problems, by applying human knowledge to the design of the system, and by utilizing gained knowledge to other similar situations that exist currently or will occur in the future.
This presentation will outline the definition, classification and misconceptions about human error and discuss the differences between traditional and contemporary understanding and prevention of human error. Practical examples from own research, highlighting the importance of identifying risks and appropriately dealing with them, will be given.
