Sensor Technologies for Civil Infrastructure Volume II provides an overview of sensor data analysis and case studies in assessing and monitoring civil infrastructures.
Part one focuses on sensor data interrogation and decision making, with chapters on data management technologies, data analysis, techniques for damage detection and structural damage detection. Part two is made up of case studies in assessing and monitoring specific structures such as bridges, towers, buildings, dams, tunnels, pipelines, and roads.
Sensor Technologies for Civil Infrastructure provides a standard reference for structural and civil engineers, electronics engineers, and academics with an interest in the field.
- Provides an in-depth examination of sensor data management and analytical techniques for fault detection and localization, looking at prognosis and life-cycle assessment
- Includes case studies in assessing structures such as bridges, buildings, super-tall towers, dams, tunnels, wind turbines, railroad tracks, nuclear power plants, offshore structures, levees, and pipelines
Practitioners, researchers, and government officials in the fields of civil engineering, structural engineering, bridge design, bridge inspection, and infrastructure maintenance; Civil, structural, and geotechnical engineers and professionals interested in SHM in the domains of safety, maintenance, design or construction of infrastructure; Researchers and professors of civil engineering whose area is SHM, or use SHM as a tool in their research
