All structures, including critical civil infrastructure facilities like bridges and highways, deteriorate with time due to various reasons including fatigue failure caused by repetitive traffic loads, effects of environmental conditions, and extreme events such as an earthquake. This requires not just routine or critical-event based inspections (such as an earthquake), but rather a means of continuous monitoring of a structure to provide an assessment of changes as a function of time and an early warning of an unsafe condition using real-time data. Thus, the health monitoring of structures has been a hot research topic of structural engineering in recent years. Keeping this in mind, the course objectives are framed such that, students will be able to :

·         Learn the fundamentals of structural health monitoring,

·         Study the various vibration-based techniques for structural health monitoring
