MUMBAI, India, Aug. 10 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641091404 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Chennai on July 28, 2026, for System And Method For Detecting And Localizing Cracks In Pressure Vessels.
Inventors include Ilakiyaselvan N; Akash B; and Ashwin B.
The application for the patent was published on July 31, 2026, under issue no. 31/2026.
Abstract: A system 100 to detect and localize crack in pressure vessels 302 includes a crack detection unit 102 embedded with the pressure vessels 302 including a plurality of sensors 104; and a microcontroller 106 communicatively coupled with the sensors 104, including a plurality of modules 108, at least one database, one or more processors to receive real-time signals from the sensors 104 to correlate and validate predefined parameters set for each sensor 104 sensing crack related disturbances; process signals to classify predefined crack severity levels; estimate crack location by comparing signal amplitudes detected by the sensors 104; monitor crack growth behavior using a temporal crack event mechanism; generate alerts when crack severity exceeds predefined safety thresholds; and record monitoring and output data for historical monitoring and to integrate with predictive maintenance interface 110.
