The paper provides a state of the art review of guided wave based structural health
monitoring (SHM). First, the fundamental concepts of guided wave propagation and its …

Self-sensing concrete combines electrically conductive filler material and conventional
building material together, and is able to realise a sensing function that by measuring the …

Concrete piles are the most common types of foundation structures. Pile damages, such as
fractures, cracks, mud intrusion and secondary concrete pouring, are the leading causes of …

Ultrasonic monitoring is one of the most important tools in the field of structural health
monitoring (SHM). The main goal of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review of the …

This study explores the innovative use of 3D robotic spray for applying self-sensing
cementitious coating, emphasising its potential for multifunctional smart concrete …

An application for sensing the stress-induced localization of damage in the form of a discrete
crack in a concrete substrate is developed using embedded PZT patches. Stress-wave …

A novel embedded piezoelectric ultrasonic transducers suitable for damage monitoring of
steel bar were developed, and the crack and corrosion damages of the steel bar were …

Research and development of active monitoring systems for reinforced concrete structures
should lead to improved structural safety and reliability. Numerical models of active …

Smart aggregates (SAs) are often formed by embedding lead zirconate titanate (PZT)
patches into concrete or marble blocks. They not only have the advantages of low cost, quick …

In this study, we propose a piezoelectric ceramic sensor-based health monitoring method to
monitor the stress state of diagonally braced H-shaped steel structures. Loading …
