Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aging of civil infrastructure in numerous countries worldwide has brought attention to the significance of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) in the field of civil engineering. SHM has become a prominent topic due to its vital role in ensuring the safety and integrity of infrastructure. In response, the development of advanced sensors and sensing systems has been crucial to the successful implementation of SHM. These technological advancements encompass a wide range of sensors, from contact-based sensors to air-coupled sensors, as well as various sensor networks such as camera sensor networks, wireless charging sensor networks, and radar sensor networks. These innovative systems enable engineers to monitor and assess the health of structures in real-time, providing valuable data on their condition.
Moreover, the evolution of sensor and sensing system technologies has also paved the way for the creation of numerous methods aimed at detecting, locating, and quantifying structural damage. These methods play a vital role in ensuring the accurate assessment and timely repair of infrastructure, contributing to its overall safety and longevity. This special issue aims to foster the dissemination of cutting-edge research and review articles that delve into the latest advancements in adaptive sensing within emerging sensor networks. It seeks to explore the practical applications of these advancements in monitoring the sustainable development of civil infrastructure. The objective is to publish high-quality, original articles that present novel insights and findings in the field.
