Electromagnetic Sensors for Underwater Scour Monitoring [PDF]
Scour jeopardises the safety of many civil engineering structures with foundations in riverbeds and it is the leading cause for the collapse of bridges worldwide. Current approaches for bridge scour risk management rely mainly on visual inspections, which provide unreliable estimates of scour and of its effects, also considering the difficulties in ...

Monitoring Glacier Calving using Underwater Sound
Abstract. Climate shifts are particularly conspicuous in the Arctic. Satellite and terrestrial observations show significant increases in the melting and breakup of Arctic tidewater glaciers and their influence on sea level rise. Increasing melt rates are creating an urgency to better understand the link between atmospheric and oceanic conditions and ...

Underwater cable monitoring system using Bot
Abstract Underwater fiber cable carries lot of sensitive information between countries so, it is important to continuously monitor the quality of the cable. The principle of reflection of an echo signal is proposed for detecting damages in the submarine cable. Through the process of an ultrasonic sensor, the faulty part can be identified
