Abstract：
Structural health monitoring (SHM) is a key component for keeping safety operation of large-scale artifacts such as airplane, bridge, power plants, underground gas pipe etc. Severe accidents in such artifacts have been often caused by variety of material degradations due to the long-term service of structured materials. SHM plays an essential role in preventing catastrophic events at the course of material aging. It involves the broad concept of assessing ongoing and in-service performance of structures using variety of measurements. Those elements include sensors in structures, data acquisition, data management, data interpretation, diagnosis, etc. In the first part of this talk, typical case studies for critical damages are overviewed and I will discuss how SHM for structural integrity could work. Secondly, several efforts on practical implementations of SHM are demonstrated using various monitoring techniques, such as thermal tomography, electromagnetic nondestructive testing, and ultrasonic testing. The final part of this talk is devoted to the recent critical issues on SHM associated with the reliability assessment for post Fukushima’s era.
