Riassunto

Performance assessment and health monitoring of civil infrastructures has the potential to increase public safety while decreasing maintenance costs. Typically, sensors are strategically placed in a structure to measure and record data and to draw conclusions about the state of a structure. Volume 2 of this two-volume series takes the reader through sensor data management and analytical techniques for fault detection and localization. The majority of the chapters are case studies in assessing structures such as bridges, buildings, super-tall towers, dams, tunnels, wind turbines, railroad tracks, nuclear power plants, offshore structures, and levees and pipelines.

Dalla quarta di copertina

Sensors are used for civil infrastructure performance assessment and health monitoring, and have evolved significantly through developments in materials and methodologies.Sensor technologies for civil infrastructure Volume II provides an overview of sensor data analysis and case studies in assessing and monitoring civil infrastructures.

Part I focuses on sensor data irrigation and decision making, with chapters on data management technologies, data analysis, techniques for damage detection and structural damage detection. Part II 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 will provide a standard reference for structural and civil engineers, electronics engineers and academics with an interest in the field.
