The wire breakage of bridge cable may result in potential bridge safety and durability
problems. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an effective testing method for quantitatively …

In-service stay cables suffer from surface scratch and crack defects, which may cause
corrosion inside cables, and fracture damage is likely to occur when those defects are …

Wire rope inspection by nondestructive testing methods, sensors and signal processing
techniques are mainly reviewed in this paper. Owing to the difference of physical …

It is difficult to test and maintain the cables on a cable-stayed bridge. Cable detection and
repair remain mainly manual operations and automatic maintenance is rare. Aiming at the …

Steel wire ropes are the vital load-bearing element in many rope transport devices, such as
mine hoists, personal lifts, bridges and cableways. Non-destructive fault detection is a …
