Convolutional neural networks for real-time and wireless damage detection
Abstract
Structural damage detection methods available for structural health monitoring applications are based on data preprocessing, feature extraction, and feature classification. The feature classification task requires considerable computational power which makes the utilization of centralized techniques relatively infeasible for wireless sensor networks. In this paper, the authors present a novel Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) based on One Dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks (1D CNNs) for real-time and wireless structural health monitoring (SHM). In this method, each CNN is assigned to its local sensor data only and a corresponding 1D CNN is trained for each sensor unit without any synchronization or data transmission. This results in a decentralized system for structural damage detection under ambient environment. The performance of this method is tested and validated on a steel grid laboratory structure.
