Corrosion is a major issue in construction and infrastructure management, giving rise to high
repair costs, safety concerns and structural failures. Especially reinforcement corrosion in …

Crack location and type identification of reinforced concrete columns in service is of great
interest to researchers, since it influences the decision-making of maintenance and retrofit …

Accuracy metrics have been widely used for the evaluation of predictions in machine
learning. However, the selection of an appropriate accuracy metric for the evaluation of a …

Autonomous corrosion monitoring systems in reinforced concrete structures tend to use
sensors that are electrically isolated from rebars. This monitoring strategy ignores the …

Understanding the properties of concrete under load is essential for assessing the stability
and serviceability of buildings. In this work, the uniaxial compression test of concrete was …

The increasing number of bridges approaching their design life has prompted researchers
and operators to develop innovative structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques. An …

Acoustic emission (AE) is a promising technology for structural health monitoring to reduce
costs and improve performance but hard to interpret. This paper puts forward an advanced …

Steel bars, which are commonly used as reinforcements in concrete structures, are slender
rods and are good conduits for stress wave propagation. In this paper, a lead zirconate …

Treating waste concrete to produce recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is an important
measure to save resources and protect environment. Studies have shown that adding silica …

Detecting and monitoring the damage locations of in-service reinforced concrete (RC)
structures is difficult as they exhibit more complex geometries and consist of composite …
