庆应大学三田彰教授访问同济大学

        2018年10月20日邀请日本庆应大学开放与环境系统科学学院系统设计工程系Akira MITA 教授到同济大学访问并做题为“Past, Present and Future of Structural Health Monitoring Systems for Buildings”的报告。

       报告内容如下：Increased awareness of the economic and social effects of aging, deterioration and extreme events on civil infrastructure has been accompanied by recognition of the need for advanced structural health monitoring and damage detection tools. Today, these tasks are done by visual inspection and very traditional methods such as the tap test. This labor-intensive task is done at a frequency of less than once every two years for bridges, and on an as-needed basis for other infrastructures such as buildings. Structural health monitoring techniques based on changes in dynamic characteristics have been studied for the last three decades. When the damage is substantial, these methods have some success in determining if damage has occurred. At incipient stages of damage, however, the existing methods are not as successful. A number of new research projects have been funded to improve the damage detection methods including the use of innovative signal processing, new sensors, and control theory. This lecture highlights these new research directions.
