In this paper, the acceptability of system identification results for health monitoring of instrumented bridges is addressed. This is conducted by comparing the confidence intervals of identified modal parameters for a bridge in California, namely Truckee 180/Truckee river bridge, with the change of these parameters caused by several damage scenarios. A challenge to the accuracy of the identified modal parameters involves consequences regarding the damage detection and health monitoring, as some of the identified modal information is essentially not useable for acquiring a reliable damage diagnosis of the bridge system. Use of strong motion data has limitations that should not be ignored. The results and conclusions underline these limitations while presenting the opportunities offered by system identification using strong motion data for better understanding and monitoring the health of bridge systems.

Adoption factors of health monitoring systems for smart healthcare: a systematic review Özkan Yıldırım, Sevgi (null; 2019-04-13) Although there have been several studies that focus on technical aspects of health monitoring systems, adoption of these systems remains largely unknown. A limited number of researches has explored the factors influencing users adoption of these systems that provide successful system implementation. In this study, we reviewed articles addresses the adoption of health monitoring systems. We extract criteria that influence the adoption decision that has been made at some stage to use health monitoring system...
Instrumented monitoring and nondestructive evaluation of highway bridges Hunt, Victor J.; Türer, Ahmet; Gao, Yong; Levi, Alper; Helmicki, Arthur J.; Barrish, J.R.; Catbas, Fikret N.; Grimmelsman, K; Aktan, A. Emin (1998-04-03) On-line, continuous monitoring technologies of a rigorous and objective nature are sought to quantitatively identify and evaluate the condition or health of highway structures over their useful lifetime. A global bridge evaluation methodology is under development based upon the structural identification concept, employing modal testing, truckload testing, and instrumented monitoring as its principal experimental tools. Test results are transformed to either modal flexibility or the unit influence line, whic...
Structural Health Monitoring Technologies for Civil Engineering Structures Türer, Ahmet (null; 2015-05-07) This paper discusses basic principles of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), how it has evolved and current state-of-the-art. The need for monitoring is categorized under main titles of necessity for SHM. The toolbox of monitoring projects share similar sensors. Most commonly used sensors and their working principles are briefly discussed. The duration of measurement and outcomes obtained from short and long term monitoring are elaborated. Dynamic and static measurements sometimes need to be combined for th...
Multipurpose Platform for Power System Monitoring and Analysis With Sample Grid Applications Atalik, Tevhid; ÇADIRCI, IŞIK; Demirci, Turan; Ermiş, Muammer; İNAN, TOLGA; Kalaycioglu, Alper Sabri; Salor, Ozgul (2014-03-01) This paper is devoted to the design and implementation of a multipurpose platform (MPP) for power system monitoring and analysis. This MPP is a novel device, which combines the abilities of a power quality (PQ) analyzer, an event logger, a synchronized phasor measurement unit, and an interarea oscillation identifier, all in one device. The multiple functions of the proposed MPP can serve the needs of the power system operators (SOs) as a wide-area monitoring system to observe the states and stability of the...
Lung ultrasound and computed tomographic findings in pregnant woman with COVID-19 Kalafat, Erkan; Yaprak, E.; ÇINAR, GÜLE; VARLI, BULUT; Ozisik, S.; UZUN, ÇAĞLAR; AZAP, ALPAY; KOÇ, ASLI (2020-06-01) Imaging modalities play a crucial role in the management of suspected COVID-19 patients. Before reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test results are positive, 60-93% of patients have positive chest computed tomographic (CT) findings consistent with COVID-19. We report a case of positive lung ultrasound findings consistent with COVID-19 in a woman with an initially negative RT-PCR result. The lung ultrasound-imaging findings were present between the negative and subsequent positive RT-PC...
