Achenbach [11] have discussed about the health monitoring of safety-critical structures such as aircraft, bridges, nuclear reactors and dams, which cannot be allowed to fail; using the techniques of non-destructive inspection to provide continuous or on-demand information about the state of a structure, so that an assessment of the structural integrity can be made at any time, and timely remedial actions may be taken as necessary through a large number of sensors.
Teo et al [12] demonstrated the optimum combinations of frequency and location of the sensor in monitoring sub-surface defects using scattering of stress waves on aircraft structures with multi-layered construction and geometry variation.

Review

Giurgiutiu [1] has reviewed various aspects of signal processing, spectra collection, data processing and analysis, pattern recognition, and decision making for signal processing and damage identification/pattern recognition algorithms in structural health monitoring.
Verijenko and Verijenko [2] proposed a passive peak monitoring, cost effective structural health monitoring technique using strain memory alloys; which are ferrous alloys that display paramagnetism in the unstrained state, but transform proportionally to display varying degrees of ferromagnetism depending on the level of peak strain induced in the material. This effect is achieved using a transformation in crystal structure from a meta-stable austenitic structure to a stable strain-induced martensitic structure.
Chase [3] et al developed adaptive recursive least squares filtering techniques for structural health monitoring using measured or estimated structural responses by identifying changes in structural parameters, like comparing the damage stiffness matrix of a structure with the undamaged model matrix.
Park and Sohn [4] developed parameter estimation techniques to automatically estimate model parameters for health monitoring of structure as a statistical pattern recognition problem; where decision boundary for outlier is based on the generalized extreme value distribution.
Majumder et al [5] reviewed structural health monitoring using FBG sensors.
Yinghui and Michaels [6] presented a methodology for applying diffuse ultrasonic waves for structural health monitoring in the presence of unmeasured temperature changes; which offer the advantages of simplicity of signal generation and reception, sensitivity to damage, and large area coverage.
A fiber optic acoustic emission sensor based structural health monitoring technique is proposed by Fu et al [7] using fused-tapered coupler.
Baker et al [8] presented a simple strain-based structural health monitoring approach for monitoring the boron/epoxy patch repair of a critical fatigue crack in an F-111C wing.
Bernini et al [9] demonstrated the viability of fiber-optic frequency-domain Brillouin strain sensing for accurate high-resolution structural health monitoring; where high performances have been achieved by applying an iterative reconstruction algorithm considering the influence of the acoustic wave involved in Brillouin scattering.
Chan et al [10] developed the FBG sensors for structural health monitoring to investigate the feasibility via monitoring the strain of different parts of the Tsing Ma Bridge as well as validated the performance with the conventional wind and structural health monitoring system.
The extrinsic Fabry–Perot interferometer and fiber Bragg grating sensors have been real-time employed by Leng and Asundi [11] to simultaneously monitoring the cure process of CFRP composite laminates with and without damage.
Kister et al [12] presented optical fiber Bragg grating sensors based structural health monitoring of West Mill Bridge which is a glass and carbon fiber composite road bridge.
Brown and Adams [13] described the structural health monitoring for evolution of a reversible damage in a bolted fastener and show that the evolution of damage is sensitive to both temporal and spatial bifurcation parameters assuming the damage indicator behaves like a stable quasi-stationary equilibrium point in a subsidiary non-linear bifurcating system within the damage center manifold.
Koh and Dyke [14] used correlation-based damage detection methods for long-span, cable-stayed bridges based on the multiple damage location assurance criterion, which combines a correlation-based technique with a forward-type estimation of damage-sensitive structural parameters; where the locations of damage are determined by iteratively searching for the combination of structural parameters that maximizes the correlation coefficient through the application of genetic algorithms.

Review

Johnson et al [1] presented work on smart sensor arrays for distributed structural health monitoring and damage diagnosis. The goal of their work was to implement local vibration-based diagnostic algorithms inside a smart ‘black box’ to demonstrate the feasibility of distributed health monitoring for damage detection and location. Dynamic transmissibility features for SHM and the smart-processing platform have been described in detail and various damage configurations in two large test structures, a representative three-storey building and a rotorcraft fuselage, have been diagnosed. Their results showed that the near real-time integrated monitoring system works well in spite of certain limited environmental fluctuations (e.g. temperature, input levels) and boundary condition non-linearity. Wired piezoelectric arrays of accelerometers are implemented in conjunction with the black box.
To deal with the diverse, heterogeneous and distributed information obtained by density or different kinds of sensors at different sites on a large scale engineering structure, multi-agent system (MAS) based structural health monitoring (SHM) technology have been adopted by Zhao et al [2] with a general framework considering function design, ontology design, individual agent design, facilitator design, society behavior and learning behavior design which can be plugged in any multi-agent based SHM system and tested with a case study.
Zhao et al [3] introduced an evaluation on a multi-agent system based structural health monitoring to validate the efficiency of the multi-agent technology, which can automatically choose sensing object, can self-organize the sensor network and discard useless sensor data, and can recognize three typical kinds of structure states which may indicate structural damages including impact load, joint failure, strain distribution change on every substructure and the edge area between two adjacent substructures.
Wu et al [4] presented a multi-agent design method and system evaluation for wireless sensor network based structural health monitoring including the wireless strain gauge node, wireless PZT node and wireless USB station which can automatically allocate SHM tasks; self-organize the sensor network and aggregate different sensor information using six different SHM agents.
Son et al [5] considered support vector machine, linear discriminate analysis, k-nearest neighbors, and random forests algorithm as classifiers for fault diagnosis of machine using three types of signals involving vibration, current, and flux from induction motors.
Wang et al [6] identified a through-thickness hole in a stiffened composite panel using guided wave-based damage diagnostic algorithm, which is based on the probability of the presence of damage in the monitoring area estimated using correlation coefficients of Lamb wave signals from an active sensor network.
Shah and Ribakov [7] presented findings on nonlinear ultrasonic testing of concrete with different frequency transducers. As concrete is a high attenuation material, the change in fundamental amplitude or attenuation was found sensitive to using transducers with different frequency. The test results were also analyzed to find correlation between w/c, wave attenuation and higher harmonic generation based nonlinear parameters.

Overbey and Todd [8] evaluated input and output noise sensitivity on transfer entropy damage index as a feature for nonlinearity detection and linear damage identification, which requires the estimation of non-parametric one-, two-, and three-dimensional probability density functions.
Gul and Catbas [9] investigated statistical pattern recognition methods in the context of SHM using time series modeling, i.e. auto-regressive models, in conjunction with Mahalanobis distance-based outlier detection algorithms to identify different types of structural changes on different test structures.
Lopez and Klijn [10] used distance similarity matrix of dimensionally reduced data and shown ensembles perform better than any single-feature extraction method.
