Computer Vision and AI in Structural Health Monitoring and Structural Engineering explores cutting-edge approaches to SHM, integrating advancements in computer vision, artificial intelligence (AI), and multimodal technologies to revolutionize how infrastructure is monitored, maintained, and managed. Starting with the fundamentals of SHM and structural engineering, the book examines the transformative power of computer vision applications, such as crack detection, corrosion assessment, and real-time deformation analysis. It also introduces vision-language models (VLMs), enabling automated defect reporting, multimodal analysis, and natural language interfaces for SHM systems. In an era of aging infrastructure and an increasing demand for safety, structural health monitoring (SHM) has become critical for ensuring the longevity and reliability of buildings, bridges, and other essential structures. This book explores these important concepts.

Dr. Liu received his PhD from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University and an M.Sc. in Aeronautics and Astronautics, also from Stanford University. Cheng Liu's research is focused on physics-guided machine learning for structural health monitoring (SHM), smart structures, cyber-physical systems/digital twin, robotic tactile sensing and the mechanics of composite structures. His recent research includes the fusion of data-driven and physics-based methods for SHM to improve its robustness and explainability, so that SHM can really be widely applied in real-world scenarios
