Abstract
In an increasing number of engineering applications it is
becoming difficult, or impossible, to adequately test the
physical properties of a structure. Offshore and aviation
structures are classic examples. Given that many of these
applications are safety-critical it is important to find new
validation techniques that are at least as reliable and
hopefully quicker and cheaper than conventional physical
testing. In response to this need there is a growing interest in
the use of virtual testing techniques. This paper describes a
project to design a computer based intelligent advisory
system for carrying out qualification on safety-critical
applications by means of virtual testing.
