The aim of model-based structural identification is to make sense of monitoring data in order to improve knowledge of the real behaviour of structures. Common use of structural-identification techniques involves an assumption of independent zero-mean Gauss ...
This paper presents a methodology that improves fatigue-performance evaluations using model-based data interpretation. The accuracy of stress-range values is essential for quantifying fatigue damage. These values are usually predicted using physics-based m ...
Most infrastructure in the western world was built in the second half of the 20th century. Transportation structures, water distribution networks and energy production systems are now aging and this leads to safety and serviceability issues. In situations ...
Conservative models and code practices are usually employed for fatigue-damage predictions of existing structures. Direct in-service behavior measurements are able to provide more accurate estimations of remaining-fatigue-life predictions. However, these e ...
In this work, we consider a general form of noisy compressive sensing (CS) when there is uncertainty in the measurement matrix as well as in the measurements. Matrix uncertainty is motivated by practical cases in which there are imperfections or unknown ca ...
The approach proposed here is linked to Maxwell’s reciprocal representation of force and geometry for structural modelling. It is based on the approach of Fivet & Zastavni [2014] of modelling interactive constraint-based structural equilibriums in which ge ...
In this paper, we investigate the following problem: given the image of a scene, what is the trajectory that a robot-mounted camera should follow to allow optimal dense depth estimation? The solution we propose is based on maximizing the information gain o ...
Raman assistance in distributed sensors based on Brillouin Optical Time-Domain Analysis (BOTDA) can significantly extend the measurement distance. In this work we have developed a 2 meter resolution long-range Brillouin distributed sensor that reaches 100 ...

Tensegrity structures are spatial, reticulate and lightweight systems composed of struts and cables. Stability is provided by a self-stress state between tensioned and compressed elements. Tensegrities have received interest among scientists and engineers ...
