Electromechanical Behaviour of Surface-Bonded Piezoelectric Sensors/Actuators with Imperfect Adhesive Layers
DownloadFall 2009
The performance of smart structures depends on the electromechanical behaviour of piezoelectric sensors/actuators and the bonding condition along the interface, which connects the sensor/actuator and the host structures. This thesis documents a theoretical study of the influence of material...

Embedded Radio Frequency Sensor System into The Transceiver Architecture and Enhanced Communication Capability in Adverse Environment
DownloadFall 2019
Sensors are an essential part of Internet-of-Things (IoT) and wireless-sensor-network. They are the main block for sensing and obtaining information about the environmental parameters or materials of concern. From industrial applications for safety improvement to biomedical, health monitoring and...

Utilization of Semiconductors Piezoresistive Properties in Mechanical Strain Measurements under Varying Temperature Conditions for Structural Health Monitoring Applications
DownloadSpring 2013
Strain gauges have been powerful tools in experimental stress analysis. This importance is expected to continue, even though other means of strain measurement are continually introduced to the market. The strain gauge is a simple device that can be easily installed to measure mechanical strain....
