## Summary

Swansea University has released a tender for the "Supply of Integrated Non-Contact Optical Measurement System" as part of their procurement process in the education sector. This tender, issued on 29th June 2022, is currently in the award stage, having been awarded to LaVisionUK Ltd. The contract is valued at £179,437 and requires delivery to the Service Yard at Bay Campus, Swansea University, by 31st July 2022. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, and this contract relates to goods under the classification of non-contact optical measurement systems.

This opportunity presents significant potential for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in optical measurement technologies or related fields. Businesses that can provide advanced measurement systems capable of volumetric particle image velocimetry or stereo-DIC and stereo-PIV are well-positioned to compete in this tender. Given the specified requirements for high-speed camera compatibility and the integration of various measurement techniques, suppliers with expertise in innovative optical technologies would benefit from pursuing such contracts.

## Notice

The funding has a tight expenditure deadline (31st July 2022), so we have published this tender before the funding decision. As such, the tender award will be subject to funding award. An FSI non-contact optical measurement system, capable of volumetric particle image velocimetry, or stereo-DIC and stereo-PIV is sought. A 4-camera system will suffice for most applications in mind. A system that can also make use of our existing high-speed camera equipment is highly desirable (2x Photron Nova S6). Delivery will need to be to the Service Yard at Bay Campus, Swansea University, ideally by the 31st July 2022.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The Department of Biomedical Engineering develops synthetic experimental systems to assess the efficacy of medical devices and implants. Target applications involve studying the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. The interaction of the fluid and solid tissue structure is of great importance to understand the mechanics of that system in health and disease. High-fidelity computational modelling frameworks already exist within the Department. This contract hopes to acquire hardware to enable fluid-structure interaction (FSI) measurements to be performed, to help validate such computational models. Expertise and hardware already exist for non-contact optical techniques such as digital image correlation (DIC), particle image velocimetry (PIV) at low speeds and high-frame rates. However, this contract aims to purchase an all-in-one integrated FSI system to couple DIC and PIV - delivering FSI analysis in one platform. An FSI non-contact optical measurement system, capable of volumetric particle image velocimetry, or stereo-DIC and stereo-PIV is sought. A 4-camera system will suffice for most applications in mind. A system that can also make use of our existing high-speed camera equipment is highly desirable (2x Photron Nova S6).

Options: Hardware Registration Accessories And Cable Connection Set Accessories And Cable Connection Set Ptu X Upgrade For High-Speed Applications Software Module
