A New Benchmark Problem for Structural Damage Detection: Bolt Loosening Tests on a Large-Scale Laboratory Structure
(
Springer
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
Monitoring the structural performance of engineering structures has always been pertinent for maintaining structural health and assessing the life cycle of structures. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) and Structural ...
Convolutional neural networks for real-time and wireless damage detection
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
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 ...
Control of plate vibrations with artificial neural networks and piezoelectricity
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a method for active vibration control of smart thin cantilever plates. For model formulation needed for controller design and simulations, finite difference technique is used on the cantilever plate ...
Structural health monitoring with self-organizing maps and artificial neural networks
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The use of self-organizing maps and artificial neural networks for structural health monitoring is presented in this paper. The authors recently developed a nonparametric structural damage detection algorithm for extracting ...
Analysis of the Trajectories of Left-turning Vehicles at Signalized Intersections
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Internationally, an annual number of more than a million fatalities are caused by road traffic crashes, with particularly signalized intersections being crash prone locations within the highway system. An accumulation of ...
Are Professional Drivers more Aggressive than General Drivers? A Case Study from Doha, Qatar
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
Previous studies have revealed that aggressive and reckless driving can largely affect the occurrence and severity of road crashes. There could be intentional aggressive and unsafe acts, which could significantly affect ...
Assessment of School Bus Assistant’s Safety Perspective in the State of Qatar
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
School Bus Assistants (SBA) are appointed to bridge the communication gap between students and drivers, and to ensure the safety of students on the school buses. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety procedures ...
Externally bonded hybrid carbon/glass FRP strips for shear strengthening of RC deep beams
(
University of Cantabria - Building Technology R&D Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The experimental study on the shear strengthening the efficacy of a recently introduced hybrid carbon/glass fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) for reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams has been presented in this study. The hybrid ...
Shear strengthening of RC beams with steel reinforced grout (SRG)
(
University of Cantabria - Building Technology R&D Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Steel reinforced grout (SRG) has shown to be an efficient and cost-effective strengthening solution for reinforced concrete (RC) structures. With regard to RC beams, the experimental studies to date have focused mainly on ...
Effect of using multiple fabric plies on the tensile behaviour of carbon textile reinforced mortar
(
University of Cantabria - Building Technology R&D Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Recently, textile reinforced mortar (TRM) has emerged as a viable strengthening material for reinforced concrete (RC) and masonry structures. Understanding the TRM tensile behaviour is important to achieve an accurate ...
