Abstract: An iron–carbon electroplated long period grating (LPG) fiber sensor to monitor the passivation, initiation, and propagation of the pitting corrosion of steel bars is characterized in simulated concrete pore solutions. An ...

Abstract: This paper presents high temperature measurements using a Brillouin scattering-based fiber optic sensor and the application of the measured temperatures and building code recommended material parameters into enhanced ...

Abstract: In this study, the pressure-displacement equilibrium path and the elastic buckling pressure were formulated analytically for a thin-walled circular liner encased in a partially grouted pipeline–liner system. Numerical ...

Abstract: In this study, a smart rock, which is a magnet embedded in a concrete ball and whose direction is always pointing downwards, is proposed to monitor bridge scour depth. Based on the theory of magnetic field, the distribution ...
