Sinopsis

Health Assessment of Engineered Structures has become one of the most active research areas and has attracted multi-disciplinary interest. Since available financial recourses are very limited, extending the lifespan of existing bridges, buildings and other infrastructures has become a major challenge to the engineering profession world-wide. Some of its related areas are only in their development phase. As the study of structural health assessment matures, more new areas are being identified to complement the concept.This book covers some of the most recent developments (theoretical and experimental) and application potentials in structural health assessment. It is designed to present currently available information in an organised form to interested parties who are not experts in the subject.Each chapter is authored by the most active scholar(s) in the area. After discussing the general concept, various currently available methods of structural health assessment (such as the use of smart sensors) are presented. Health Assessment discusses the following: sensor types, platforms and data conditioning for practical applications; wireless collection of sensor data, sensor power needs and on-site energy harvesting; and long term monitoring of structures. Uncertainty in collected data is also extensively addressed. A chapter discussing future directions in structural health assessment is also included.

De la contraportada

Health Assessment of Engineered Structures has become one of the most active research areas and attracted multi-disciplinary interest. Since available financial recourses are very limited, extending the life of existing bridges, buildings and other infrastructures has become a major challenge to the engineering profession world-wide. Some of the related areas are in the development phase. As the area matures, more new areas are being identified to implement the concept. The available information may not be available in an organized way for interested parties who are not expert in the area. This edited book will cover some of the most recent developments (theoretical, experimental, and application potentials) in structural health assessment areas. These areas are not matured enough to write book on them. Students (undergraduate and graduate), researchers (university and industrial), and practitioners (government and private) will be interested in the topics presented in the book. After discussing the general concept, various currently available methods of structural health assessment will be presented. A chapter also will discuss future directions in structural health assessment area since the area is evolving. Smart sensors are routinely used to assess structural health. Sensor types, platforms and data conditioning for practical applications will be presented. Wireless collection of sensor data, sensor power needs and on-site energy harvesting will be discussed. Uncertainty in the collected data will be extensively addressed. Long term monitoring of structures will also be presented. Each chapter will be authored by the most active scholar(s) in the area.
