Multibridge Inference Structural Health Monitoring (MISHM): A Drive‐By Crowdsensing Approach at the Network Level

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
As aging bridge infrastructure poses increasing safety risks, there is a critical need for reliable and scalable Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems. Traditional SHM methods, which rely on fixed sensor networks and assessments of individual bridges, face significant challenges in scalability, cost, and efficiency—particularly in complex urban ...

In‐fleet structural health monitoring of roadway bridges using connected and autonomous vehicles’ data

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 39, Issue 14, Page 2122-2139, 15 July 2024.
Abstract Drive‐by structural health monitoring (SHM) is a cost‐efficient alternative to the direct SHM of short‐ to medium‐size bridges requiring no sensors to be installed on the structure. However, drive‐by SHM is generally known as a short‐term monitoring technique due to the challenges associated with using multiple passages of instrumented ...
