This paper reviews recent advances in sensor technologies for non-destructive testing
(NDT) and structural health monitoring (SHM) of civil structures. The article is motivated by …

Abstract Fiber Optic Shape Sensing is an innovative Optical Fiber Sensing Technology that
uses a fiber optic cable to continuously track the 3D shape and position of a dynamic object …

Fiber optic sensors represent an innovative technology for automated measurement of cable
forces which are critical in construction and operation of many civil engineering structures …

In recent decades, the urgency to protect and upgrade cultural heritage structures (CHS) has
become of primary importance due to their unique value and potential areas of impact …

Structural health monitoring (SHM) of civil engineering structures has been widely
developed to increase safety and to provide cost-effective maintenance programmes …

This paper evaluates the results of a monitoring study that captures the early age behaviour
of four 11.9 m prestressed concrete bridge beams utilising both distributed and discrete fibre …

Existing reinforced concrete (RC) bridges that were designed in the decades between 1950
and 1990 exhibit inadequate structural safety with reference to both traffic loads and hazard …

The paper presents a study about the monitoring of a pre-stressed reinforced concrete
viaduct in Bari (Italy), by means of an optical fiber system embedded into the structural …

Cables are critical and vulnerable components of long-span cable-supported bridges,
providing essential support and integrity to ensure bridge safety. Bridge cables are …

This paper proposes a physics-informed neural network (PINN) for predicting the early-age
time-dependent behaviors of prestressed concrete beams. The PINN utilizes deep neural …
