Research and Markets has announced the addition of Woodhead Publishing Ltd's new report "Structural Health Monitoring of Civil Infrastructure Systems" to their offering.
Structural health monitoring (SHM) has been defined as the use of in-situ, non-destructive sensing and analysis of structural characteristics, including the structural response, for detecting changes that may indicate damage or degradation. Essentially, a SHM system must have the ability to collect, validate and make accessible, operational data on the basis of which decisions related to service-life management can be made.
This important new book provides a comprehensive review of the topic of structural health monitoring of civil infrastructure systems including aspects associated with sensors, data collection, data interpretation, application and specification.
