Failure prediction in self-sensing nanocomposites via genetic algorithm-enabled piezoresistive inversion

Abstract: Conductive nanocomposites have been explored extensively for structural health monitoring (SHM) due to their self-sensing nature via the piezoresistive effect. Combined with a non-invasive conductivity imaging modality such as electrical impedance tomography (EIT), piezoresistivity is a powerful tool for SHM. To date, however, the combination of the piezoresistive effect and EIT has been limited to just damage detection. From a SHM perspective, it may be more beneficial to pre-emptively predict failure before … Show more

“…Carbon nanofiller–modified polymers have received much attention from the research community for a wide range of potential applications in areas such as electromagnetic shielding (Yousefi et al, 2014), flexible electronics (Cai and Wang, 2015), and self-sensing materials (e.g. robotic or artificial/e-skin (Amjadi et al, 2015), structural health monitoring (Hassan and Tallman, 2019), and human-performance/health wearable sensors (Wang and Loh, 2017)). Key to these applications is the fact that nanofiller modification above the percolation threshold imparts electrical conductivity to the traditionally insulating polymer matrix.…”
