Issues in Using Video Images for Structural Health Monitoring
Novel structural health monitoring strategies for better management of civil infrastructure systems(CIS)are increasingly becoming more important as CIS are aging and subject to natural and man made hazards.Structural health monitoring(SHM)offers an automated method for tracking the health of a structure by combining assessment algorithms with sensing technologies.The integration of imaging and optical devices with traditional sensing technology is a new paradigm for SHM.By adding vision capabilities to a SHM framework,correlation between moving loads(traffic)and responses(sensors readings)can be performed and cause/effects relationship can be determined.However,technology requirements,algorithm needs,and the amount of data to be handled are increased dramatically.In this paper,some of the most common issues related to computer vision and sensor fusion applications as well as some possible practical solutions are described.Finally,an experimental setup which was designed and built by the researchers to investigate the issues concerning with sensor fusion and video monitoring,is described and some examples are presented.
