Potential damage identification is essential to avoid the sudden and premature failure of
aging bridges, which have attracted ample attention over the decades. This paper proposes …

Electromechanical impedance (EMI) based techniques have been proposed for structural
health monitoring due to their sensitivity to low levels of damage. Most of the work in the EMI …

Bolted connections are extensively used in construction and machine design, playing critical
roles in various industrial applications. Bolts and screws are, however, prone to loosening or …

The role of signal-based nonlinear system identification methods for the rapid post-
earthquake damage assessment of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge piers is explored …

The challenges and future trends in the development of signal processing tools are being
widely used for damage identification in bridges. Therefore, it is important to analyse the …

The fundamental objective of structural damage detection is to ascertain the presence of
damage in the structure under monitoring. Environmental variations (especially temperature) …

A structural damage identification technique hinged on the combination of orthogonal
empirical mode decomposition and modal analysis is proposed. The output-only technique …

This paper presents the practical results of the evaluation of the data obtained by using
ground‐based radar interferometer during measurements carried out on bridge structures …

This study proposed a quick earthquake damage evaluation method for RC piers using the
short-time transfer function (STTF) obtained from acceleration measurements. This research …

Flat belts are increasingly used in elevators, which offer faster stabilization and energy
savings compared to wire ropes. How-ever, damage to flat belts during operation can lead to …
