Dear Colleague,

this email is to invite you to submit a contribution for the Special Session we are organizing at IWSHM 2019: The 12 th International Workshop on SHM, Stanford, California, USA.   10-12 September 2019

“Seismic Structural Health Monitoring for Civil Structures”

The aim of this Special Session is to report recent advances in the field of Seismic Structural Health Monitoring and successful applications for civil structures and infrastructures: buildings, bridges, historical structures, dams, wind turbines, pipelines.

The session deals with theoretical and computational issues and applications. We welcome contributions that cover, but are not limited to, seismic SHM algorithms for identification and damage detection, requisite strong motion arrays and real time monitoring systems and projects, instrumentation and measurements methods and tools, optimal sensors location, experimental tests, integration of seismic SHM in procedures for risk assessment and emergency management.

Such a session will provide a venue for exchange of information to ongoing developments and assess successes and limited successes of SHM.

Organizers:

Maria Pina Limongelli. Politecnico di Milano, Italy

Mehmet Celebi, USGS, US
