Engineering of Existing Structures: The Need and Place for Non-destructive Evaluation

Eugen Brühwiler, Numa Joy Bertola, Thomas Schumacher

Structural engineers today are still educated mainly to design new structures. This ignores the fact that structures already exist and need to be maintained. Students are thus often ill-equipped to deal with maintenance and preservation of existing structu ...

Iterative distributed fault detection and isolation for linear systems based on moving horizon estimation

René Uwe Schneider, Marcello Farina

In modern engineering systems, reliability and safety can be conferred by efficient automatic monitoring and fault detection algorithms, allowing for the early identification and isolation of incipient faults. In case of large-scale and complex systems, sc ...

Electronic-Photonic Integrated Circuit for 3D Microimaging

Niels Quack

An integrated electronic-photonic phase-locked loop (PLL) modulates the frequency of a tunable laser for use in frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) lidar 3D imaging. The proposed lidar can perform 180k range measurements per second. The rms depth pr ...

An electric network for evaluating monitoring strategies intended for hydraullic pressurized networks

Ian Smith, Gaudenz Moser

This paper presents a study of similarities between electrical and hydraulic pressurized networks. The primary objective is to examine whether or not it is possible to use electrical laboratory networks measuring voltage to study leak-region detection stra ...

Force-displacement response of in-plane loaded URM walls with a dominating flexural mode

Katrin Beyer, Sarah Petry

This article presents a new mechanical model for the non-linear force-displacement response of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls developing a flexural rocking mode including their displacement capacity. The model is based on the plane section hypothesis and ...

Evaluation of seismic assessment procedures for determining deformation demands in RC wall buildings

Katrin Beyer

This work evaluates the performance of a number of seismic assessment procedures when applied to a case study reinforced concrete (RC) wall building. The performance of each procedure is evaluated through its ability to accurately predict deformation deman ...
