The first complete introduction to health monitoring, encapsulating
both technical information and practical case studies spanning the
breadth of the subject. Written by a highly-respected figure in
structural health monitoring, this book provides readers with the
technical skills and practical understanding required to solve new
problems encountered in the emerging field of health monitoring. The
book presents a suite of methods and applications in loads
identification (usage monitoring), in-situ damage identification
(diagnostics), and damage and performance prediction (prognostics).
Concepts in modelling, measurements, and data analysis are applied
through real-world case studies to identify loading, assess damage,
and predict the performance of structural components, as well as
examine engine components, automotive accessories, aircraft parts,
spacecraft components, civil structures and defence system components.
In particular the book: provides the reader with a fundamental and
practical understanding of the material; discusses models
demonstrating the physical basis for health monitoring techniques;
gives a detailed review of the best practices in dynamic measurements
including sensing; presents numerous data analysis techniques using
model- and signal-based methods; discusses case studies involving
real-world applications of health monitoring; offers end-of-chapter
problems to enhance the study of the topic for students and
instructors; and includes an accompanying website with MATLAB programs
providing hands-on training to readers for writing health monitoring
model simulation and data analysis algorithms. Health Monitoring of
Structural Materials and Components is an excellent introductory text
for newcomers to the subject as well as an excellent study tool for
students and lecturers. Practitioners and researchers, those with a
greater understanding and application of the technical skills
involved, will also find this essential reading as a reference text to
address current and future challenges in this field. The wide variety
of case studies will appeal to a broad spectrum of engineers in the
aerospace, civil, mechanical, machinery and defence communities.
