Detection of Top-Bar Effect in Reinforced Concrete Using Guided Ultrasonic Waves

Multidirectional crack monitoring of concrete structures using 3D piezoceramic sensing array

“…Another drawback of the current SA-based sensing technology for concrete damage monitoring is that there is a lack of strategies for sensor placement of a given concrete structure. In previous research, SAs are usually placed close to the possible cracking locations [26][27][28] just based on engineering judgment or experience. But this can easily miss some of the damage areas.…”
