Damage assessment of structures VII : proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Damage Assessment of Structures (DAMAS 2007) Torino, Italy, 25th to 27th June 2007

This collection covers the many activities, relevant to the damage assessment of engineering structures and systems, including the signal processing of sensor measurements and analytical techniques, as well as experimental case studies. The themes addressed reflect the current intense interest in the wider field of damage assessment; in particular, it is interesting to observe the sharp rise in the popularity of acoustic emission methods; as reflected by the high number of papers in this area. A significant proportion of the book is dedicated to signal processing and to computational methods. Among the topics covered are: Structural integrity and damage assessment, Advanced methods of NDT, Developments in signal processing and algorithms,²⁶ System diagnosis and prognosis, Damage mechanisms, Fatigue damage, Damage location and quantification, Sensors and measurement procedures, Condition monitoring, Real-time process monitoring, Practical applications and case studies. Altogether, this will make this work essential reading for anyone with an interest in this field.
