Damage Recognition for Structural Health Monitoring

In the field of structural health monitoring, researchers focus on the design of systems and techniques capable of detecting damage in structures. However, it is difficult to develop robust detection schemes that are invariant to environmental and operational conditions. In this report, we investigate several signal processing and machine learning techniques for developing such robust systems. ...

Damage Detection with Streamlined Structural Health Monitoring Data

The huge amounts of sensor data generated by large scale sensor networks in on-line structural health monitoring (SHM) systems often overwhelms the systems' capacity for data transmission and analysis. This paper presents a new concept for an integrated SHM system in which a streamlined data flow is used as a unifying thread to integrate the individual components of on-line SHM systems. Such an...
