Workshop Objectives
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is a multidisciplinary technology devoted to development and implementation of methods and systems that realize inspection and damage detection by integration with structures. The aim of this workshop is to advance the theory and application of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems and methodologies in civil engineering infrastructure as a service to the engineering profession and Society members at large. Seminar aims to promote the application of SHM technologies to assure public safety and the structural safety of civil infrastructure related to various engineering disciplines. Extensive knowledge of SHM shall lead to a clear understanding of risk and reliability assessment of structures, which is currently mandatory for structures of strategic importance like bridges, offshore structures etc. Workshop deals with both elementary and applications of SHM along with details of case studies in lab scale. The workshop is also intended to promote communication exchange and cross-fertilization between multiple disciplines.
