Abstract Wireless Smart Sensor Networks (WSSN) have seen significant advancements in
recent years. They act as a core part of structural health monitoring (SHM) systems by …

Structural health monitoring systems have been employed throughout history to assess the
structural responses of bridges to both natural and man-made hazards. Continuous …

Structural health monitoring (SHM) is the automation of the condition assessment process of
an engineered system. When applied to geometrically large components or structures, such …

The deflection of railroad bridges under in‐service loads is an important indicator of the
structure's health. Over the past decade, an increasing number of studies have …

With the rapid increase of renewable energy generation worldwide, real‐time information
has become essential to manage such assets, especially for systems installed offshore and …

One of the most critical components of the US transportation system is railroads,
accommodating transportation for 48% of the nation's total modal tonnage. Despite such …

Since the advent of structural health monitoring (SHM), vibration analysis has been one of
the most popular strategies for yielding modal information of structures, such as …

This paper presents an energy-efficient and high-accuracy sampling synchronization
approach for real-time synchronous data acquisition in wireless sensor networks (saWSNs) …

Of the 100,000 railroad bridges in the United States, 50% are over 100 years old. Many of
these bridges do not meet the minimum vertical clearance standards, making them …

Wireless sensor networks usually suffer from the issue of time synchronization discrepancy
due to environmental effects or clock management collapse. This will result in time delays …
