Deterioration of bridge infrastructure is a serious concern to transport and government
agencies as it declines serviceability and reliability of bridges and jeopardizes public safety …

The birth of smart materials such as piezoelectric (PZT) transducers has aided in
revolutionizing the field of structural health monitoring (SHM) based on non-destructive …

Humanitarian assistance operates under conditions characterized by the collapse of health
facilities, the disruption of health systems and the breakdown of already on-going treatments …

The artificial intelligence (AI) revolution offers significant opportunities to capitalise on the
growth of digitalisation and has the potential to enable the 'system of systems' approach …

This paper proposes the use of a new data-driven approach for drive-by monitoring of bridge
condition. The proposed algorithm uses an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) which is trained …

Railway inspection robots have been developed and used to gradually replace human
inspectors in recent years. This paper reviews the recent developments on railway …

Defects on rail surfaces, which have become critical problems, need to be detected and
removed as quickly as possible to ensure the fast, safe, and stable operation of trains. At …

Inspection of critical infrastructure with drones is experiencing an increasing uptake in the
industry driven by a demand for reduced cost, time, and risk for inspectors. Early …

Traditionally, railway inspection and monitoring are considered a crucial aspect of the
system and are done by human inspectors. Rapid progress of the machine vision-based …

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be deployed as wireless relays or aerial base
stations to improve network connectivity and coverage in cellular networks. UAVs can also …
