A multi-helical ultrasonic imaging approach for the structural health monitoring of cylindrical structures

Dehghan-Niri, Ehsan; Salamone, Salvatore

2015 Structural Health Monitoring: An International Journal

doi:10.1177/1475921714548937

In the past few years, several efforts have been made to combine guided ultrasonic waves and imaging algorithms such as tomography for detecting and locating damage in complex structures. In this article, we introduce a multi-helical ultrasonic imaging approach for the structural health...

Maximum scour depth based on magnetic field change in smart rocks for foundation stability evaluation of bridges

Chen, Genda; Schafer, Brandon P; Lin, Zhibin; Huang, Ying; Suaznabar, Oscar;

2015 Structural Health Monitoring: An International Journal

doi:10.1177/1475921714554141

Scour was responsible for most of the US bridges that collapsed during the past 40 years. Due to erosion and refilling of riverbed deposits under strong current, the maximum scour depth is difficult to measure with existing technologies during a flood event. In this study, a new methodology is...

Damage detection via electrical impedance tomography in glass fiber/epoxy laminates with carbon black filler

Tallman, Tyler N; Gungor, Sila; Wang, K W; Bakis, Charles E

2015 Structural Health Monitoring: An International Journal

doi:10.1177/1475921714554142

The conductivity of glass fiber reinforced polymers with nanocomposite matrices can be leveraged for structural health monitoring. Since nanocomposite matrices depend on well-connected networks of conductive nanofillers for electrical conductivity, matrix damage will sever the connection between...

Glass fiber–reinforced polymer–packaged fiber Bragg grating sensors for ultra-thin unbonded concrete overlay monitoring

Zhang, Zhiming; Huang, Ying; Palek, Leonard; Strommen, Robert

2015 Structural Health Monitoring: An International Journal

doi:10.1177/1475921714554143

The US Department of Transportation suggests a minimum thickness of 7 in (178 mm) to 8 in (203 mm) for unbonded concrete overlay. Thinner overlays driven by economic advantages have attracted worldwide attention. To prove the feasibility of thinner overlay, especially ultra-thin unbonded concrete...
