Developing a Telematics Platform for Bridge Monitoring and Health Prognostics

合作研究工作将在北卡罗来纳州州立大学的建筑物和桥梁复合材料修复行业/大学合作研究中心（I/UCRC）和辛辛那提大学的智能维护系统I/UCRC进行。 该项目的重点是开发桥梁监测和健康预测的遥测平台，因为老化和恶化的桥梁正在成为美国经济实力和增长的严重瓶颈。 该项目中的方法整合了对桥梁损伤物理学的广泛研究以及I/UCRC进行的桥梁监测系统仪器，用于修复建筑物和桥梁复合材料，以及基于未来的智能预测代理，由I/UCRC开发的智能维护系统，用于精确量化和预测桥梁的退化。加固桥梁健康预测的发展将推动当今桥梁健康监测系统中的最先进技术。 它将使桥梁设计者、建造者和管理者能够智能地利用适当的信息，这将大大降低桥梁整个生命周期的成本。

A collaborative research effort will be performed at the Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for Repair of Buildings and Bridges with Composites at North Carolina State University and the I/UCRC for Intelligent Maintenance Systems at the University of Cincinnati. The project will focus on Developing a Telematics Platform for Bridge Monitoring and Health Prognostics, as aged and deteriorating bridges are becoming more sever choke points in the economic strength and growth of the United States. The approach in this project integrates the extensive research on bridge damage physics and the instrumentation of bridge monitoring systems conducted at the I/UCRC for Repair of Building and Bridges with Composites , with the future-based smart prognostic agent, developed by the I/UCRC for Intelligent Maintenance Systems to accurately quantify and predict bridge deterioration.The development of health prediction for reinforced bridges will advance the state-of-the-art technologies in today's bridge health monitoring systems. It will enable bridge designers, builders, and administrators to intelligently utilize appropriate information, which will greatly reduce cost throughout a bridge entire life cycle.
