Abstract: The effect of steel reinforcement on the distribution of alkali-silica reaction (ASR) damage in concrete blocks is studied by leveraging acoustic emission sensing with a data-driven approach. The innovation lies in deriving ...

Abstract: Acoustic emission was used in this study to assess the condition of a simple-span, prestressed concrete bridge located in southern New Mexico during a proof test. The 40-year-old bridge is county owned and no design plans ...

Abstract: Acoustic emission (AE) data were investigated to better understand damage conditions in a three-span prestressed concrete girder bridge during a load test. The innovation lies in classification of crack extensions (stable ...
