Development of an integrated SHM framework based on a novel wireless sensing system for dynamic structural monitoring of bridges using ambient vibrations

Despite intense research activity, Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has not yet been widely embraced by asset owners and authorities, which is likely due to a mismatch between real-world requirements and SHM offering.

Over the years, Wireless Sensor Networks have emerged as a better alternative for SHM by lowering the cost of ownership, decreasing installation and maintenance cost and complexity while simplifying the use and increasing the reliability .
