A Framework for Vibration based Damage Detection of Bridges under Varying Temperature Effects using Artificial Neural Networks and Time Series Analysis
DownloadFall 2015
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has become a very important area in civil engineering for evaluating the performance of critical civil infrastructure systems such as bridges. One of the most important issues with continuous SHM is the environmental effects (such as temperature, humidity, wind)...

Investigation of Time Series Analysis Based Damage Detection Methodologies for Structural Health Monitoring
DownloadFall 2014
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is widely accepted as a valuable tool for monitoring, inspecting and maintaining infrastructure systems. Damage detection is one of the most critical components of SHM to identify the existence, location and severity of damage so that effective preventive...
