چکیده

This paper is a personal perspective of structural health monitoring technology and its applications as see from a current literature and projects. The proposed approach deals with the spectral finite element analysis method as a means of solving the wave propagation problems in structures. The change of the wave propagation process due to a damage appearance is examined by comparing the differences between the responses from damaged and undamaged structures. The influence of the damage growth for the wave propagation is also analysed. The differences in the propagating waves allow indicating the damage location and size in a very precise way.

Numerical Solution of Seismic Wave Propagation Equation in Uniform Soil on Bed Rock with Weighted Residual Method

To evaluate the earth seismic response due to earthquake effects, ground response analyses are used to predict ground surface motions for development of design response spectra, to compute dynamic stresses and strains for evaluation of liquefaction hazards, and to determine the earthquake induced forces that can lead to instability of earth and earth-retaining structures. Most of the analytical...

Active Sensor Wave Propagation Health Monitoring of Beam and Plate Structures

Active sensor wave propagation technique is a relatively new method for in-situ nondestructive evaluation (NDE). Elastic waves propagating in material carry the information of defects. These information can be extracted by analyzing the signals picked up by active sensors. Due to the physical property of wave propagation, large area can be interrogated by a few transducers. This simplifies the ...
