Sensing Region, Load Monitoring and Practical Issues

  • Chapter
Smart Materials in Structural Health Monitoring, Control and Biomechanics

Part of the book series: Advanced Topics in Science and Technology in China ((ATSTC))

Abstract

Despite various successful applications of EMI technique for SHM, the fundamental research work on determining the PZT patch’s sensing region has not received much attention, partially due to the difficulty in modeling PZT-generated wave propagation in different materials.
