Implementation of CWI on real bridge!!!
What is the goal of science? Why we do scientific research? The final goal is to apply science in our real life!! For some people, PhD students are I would say, correct! We are like this! We need to read a lot of articles, we need to do test in the lab, we need to analyze our data on PC. BUT! As a civil engineer, we are also like this: In September and October 2018, I did my secondment in Neostrain, KRAKOW, in Poland. I was lucky to have a chance to implement CWI method on a real bridge (Gliwice bridge). Embedded ultrasonic sensors were installed inside the bridge girder. Measurement devices were locked in this big box under the bridge. Checking connections Me and ESR3 Joyraj did the test together. We monitored the bridge girder for 5 days to study the influence of real traffic and temperature. Now we have some interesting result and we are planning to publish papers based on this test.
