Wireless Sensor Network-Based Monitoring of Bridge Pile Foundations for Detecting Scouring Depth

Development of LRFD Procedures for Bridge Pile Foundations in Iowa

Abstract : Wireless Sensor Network - Based Tunnel Monitoring ∗

In this paper we describe the development and deployment of a wireless sensor network (WSN) to monitor a train tunnel during adjacent construction activity. The tunnel in question is a part of the London Underground system. Construction of tunnels beneath the existing tunnel is expected to cause deformations. The expected deformation values were determined by a detailed geotechnical analysis. A...

Energy optimization based on routing protocols in wireless sensor network

Considering the great significant role that routing protocols play in transfer rate and choosing the optimum path for exchange of data packages, and further in the amount of consumed energy in the routing protocol, the present study has focused on developing an efficient compound energy algorithm based on cluster structure which is called active node with cluster structure. The purpose of this ...

Game Theory based Energy Efficient Hybrid MAC Protocol for Lifetime Enhancement of Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) comprising of tiny, power-constrained nodes are getting very popular due to their potential uses in wide applications like monitoring of environmental conditions, various military and civilian applications. The critical issue in the node is energy consumption since it is operated using battery, therefore its lifetime should be maximized for effective utilization ...
