| Abstract | ||
| ABSTRACT Increased awareness of the economic and social effects of aging, deterioration and extreme events on civil infrastructure has been accompanied by recognition of the need for advanced structural health monitoring and damage detection tools. A number of new research projects have been funded to improve the damage detection methods including the use of innovative signal processing, new sensors, and control theory. Moreover, due to the dynamic nature of structures and their environment, creating and implementing the perfect sensors and their corresponding systems is quite difficult. This pursuit has been quite challenging for a multitude of reasons, which will be examined in this paper along with different types of sensors and preferences. | ||
