Abstract
A method for determining and/or monitoring the state of a protective cover, includes the steps of a) obtaining a first state value of at least one characteristic physical, mechanical and/or chemical property of the protective cover at a first point in time; and b) obtaining a second state value of the at least one characteristic property of the protective cover at a second point in time, which is to subsequent to the first point in time; and c) comparing the obtained state values; and d) determining the state of the protective cover based on the comparison performed in step c).
Claims20
A method for determining and/or monitoring the state of a protective cover the method comprising the steps of
- a) obtaining a first state value of at least one characteristic physical, mechanical and/or chemical property of the protective cover at a first point in time;
- and
- b) obtaining a second state value of the at least one characteristic property of the protective cover at a second point in time, which is subsequent to the first point in time;
- and
- c) comparing the obtained state values;
