A range of elliptical undulators (EU) has recently been constructed at ELETTRA, whose main parameters are listed in Table 1 below. They are all based on the APPLE-II scheme [1], but two different terminations have been used due to specific installation requirements. Also, one of them (EU12.5) features a quasi-periodic field to suit special beamline needs. The minimum magnetic gap corresponds to...

In this study, efficient methods for optimal sensor placement (OSP) based on a new geometrical viewpoint for damage detection in structures is presented. The purpose is to minimize the effects of noise on the damage detection process. In the geometrical viewpoint, a sensor location is equivalent to projecting the elliptical noise on to a face of response space which is corresponding to the sens...
