Services for Lab Fracture Testing

  • Record and process AE and 3D ultrasonic data from fracture experiments in rock and engineered materials.
  • Investigate patterns and mechanics of fracture growth.
  • Optimise data quality with tailored high frequency acquisition systems.
  • Integrate user algorithms with advanced software for optimising research programs.
  • Record and process continuous ultrasonic data streams for entire fracture history.

We provide a broad spectrum of processing services, including: real-time data analysis; quality assurance of preprocessed data sets; full post- processing, and advanced interpretations, research and algorithm development.

ASC provides the industry’s leading hardware-independent software package, that includes standard and advanced analysis tools as well as options for do-it-yourself processing.

Our unique expertise is used to design and conduct laboratory testing programs and provide advice and training on testing systems and tailored data-acquisition solutions.

Our full integrated service can provide array design, data processing, results interpretation and correlation of the data with dynamic numerical models of the fracture network and mechanics.

Software and Data Acquisition

We couple innovative high-frequency electronics with real-time data processing software to provide cost effective solutions with the highest possible data-flow rates and specifications tailored to the technological requirements of our clients.


  • ASC's Software solution, InSite, is fully automatic; it can be run in real time and provides advanced data management, processing and visualisation features, as well as the facility for implementation of user designed processing algorithms.
  • Our software is independent of any hardware product or vendor. It can be interfaced to data streams from sensor arrays to provide real-time data capture, or used off-line for advanced postprocessing analysis.
