Novel detection soft-computing algorithm for structural health monitoring system

In view of the criticality of structural integrity, there are many approaches and Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) techniques developed to detect damage or crack in engineering structures. However, there is a lack of attention on developing SHM software for the damage detection in the market. This...
