The main objective of this thesis is to develop and characterize the scope of a novel and edge-cutting approaches based on markerless photogrammetric solutions. Hence, the presented study is focused on going beyond the state of art limitations of industrial photogrammetry avoiding or reducing considerably the employment of artificial targets.

Thesis director Raquel Bayón, Tekniker y José Luís Arana, ETSI Bilbao

The present thesis deals with the assessment of tribocorrosion of HSLA steels used in chains of offshore mooring lines, which have been reported to be profoundly affected by both wear and corrosion during their service life. Additionally, the second part of the thesis is focused on the evaluation of protective coatings employed for the protection of steel components and structures from corrosion.
