0352680Kundu Description: This award supports the US-India Cooperative Research: Health Monitoring and Retrofitting of Infrastructure. US PIs Tribikram Kundu, University of Arizona (UA) and Thomas Boothby, Pennsylvania State University (PSU) will collaborate with Abhijit Mukherjee, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) on sensor-based health monitoring of civil infrastructure systems. Recent developments in the field of structural health monitoring promise a paradigm shift in the evaluation and maintenance of infrastructural systems. Advances in sensor technology and the use of fiber-reinforced composites (FRC) are key factors in transforming traditional methods of monitoring and maintaining facilities. This research addresses current and developing issues in the selection and installation of sensors, the recording and processing of their signals, and has the potential for infrastructure application on a global scale. Scope: This research is interdisciplinary and requires cooperation from researchers in health monitoring, structural retrofitting and structural mechanics. The collaborating investigators and institutions offer excellent complimentary expertise. UA is active in ultrasonic investigations and system identification techniques, PSU has facilities for manufacturing and testing FRC, and the IITB has experience in field applications of FRC techniques and development of micro-electrical-mechanical sensors (MEMS). The international collaboration compliments the domestic research of each of these institutions. The Division of Civil and Mechanical Systems is cofunding this research. Also, the Government of India's Department of Science and Technology (DST) is jointly funding this project under the NSF/DST program.

Kundu描述：该奖项支持美印合作研究：基础设施的健康监测和改造。美国亚利桑那大学的PI Tribikram Kundu和宾夕法尼亚州立大学的Thomas Boothby将与印度理工学院孟买分校(IITB)的Abhijit Mukherjee合作，对民用基础设施系统进行基于传感器的健康监测。结构健康监测领域的最新发展预示着基础设施系统的评价和维护将发生范式转变。传感器技术的进步和纤维增强复合材料(FRC)的使用是改变传统监测和维护设施方法的关键因素。这项研究解决了传感器的选择和安装、其信号的记录和处理方面的当前和发展中的问题，并具有在全球范围内应用基础设施的潜力。范围：这项研究是跨学科的，需要健康监测、结构改造和结构力学方面的研究人员合作。合作的调查人员和机构提供了出色的免费专业知识。UA积极从事超声波研究和系统识别技术，PSU拥有制造和测试FRC的设施，IITB在FRC技术的现场应用和微型机电传感器(MEMS)的开发方面拥有经验。国际合作是对这些机构国内研究的补充。土木工程与机械系统司正在共同资助这项研究。此外，印度政府科技部(DST)正在根据NSF/DST计划共同资助这一项目。
