Abstract


The welding process is essential in shipbuilding, having an impact on the structural integrity and performance of the ship. This study evaluates the ability of a LIDAR-type sensor system to measure distortions during welding. The paper presents research on deformation monitoring conditions using two experimental setups at distances of 350 mm and 550 mm from a deformed area. Measurements were recorded under laboratory conditions for various monitoring conditions (distance, inclination, sampling rate) with the aim of determining the optimal monitoring solution that presents satisfactory resolution and low cost. The results highlight significant variations in the strain distribution, influenced by sensor positioning and external factors. Despite challenges such as the inability to measure along the Y-axis and susceptibility to environmental interference, the sensor system demonstrated high sensitivity and accuracy in detecting deformation patterns
