Monitoring of Crack Propagation in Concrete Using Embedded Piezoelectric Transducers
A concrete structure can be subject to several factors that may damage it during its service life. These factors are either be climatic, chemical or accidental. The security requirements are more and more speci c and severe. To ensure the safety of a structure, it is important to know its state and the properties of the materials that make it up. For this purpose, many tests has been developed....
متن کاملLocal Area Damage Detection in Composite Structures Using Piezoelectric Transducers
An integrated and automated smart structures approach for structural health monitoring applications is presented. This approach, called Active Damage Interrogation (ADI), utilizes an array of piezoelectric transducers attached to or embedded within the structure for both actuation and sensing. The ADI system actively interrogates the structure via broadband excitation of multiple actuators acro...
متن کاملDamage-Based Seismic Performance Evaluation of Reinforced Concrete Frames
A damage-based approach for the performance-based seismic assessment of reinforced concrete frame structures is proposed. A new methodology for structural damage assessment is developed that utilizes response information at the material level in each section fiber. The concept of the damage evolution is analyzed at the section level and the computed damage is calibrated with observed experiment...
متن کاملCharacterization of Cement Concrete Specimens during Hydration Process with Piezoelectric-Based Smart Aggregates
Characterization of cement concrete during hydration process has been performed using different methods. The determination of initial water-to-cement ratio is one of the challenging tasks since hydration process determines the microstructure of cement concrete and non-destructive methods with high accuracy are desired. This paper presents the results of the investigation into the stress wave tr...
متن کاملForecasting of Shear Strength of Concrete Beam Reinforced with FRP Bar
This study develops a new approach for forecasting shear Strength of concrete beam without stirrups based on the artificial neural networks (ANN). Proposed ANN considers geometric and mechanical properties of cross section and FRP bars, and shear span-depth ratio. The ANN model is constructed from a set of experimental database available in the past literature. Efficiency of the ANN model was c...
