Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to invite you to submit to the Applied Sciences Special Issue on Advances in Reinforced Concrete Structural Health Monitoring. We are seeking the latest research on advances and developments in relevant areas of structural health monitoring.
Studies addressing the readiness of structural health monitoring for field application are welcome. Manuscripts which focus on advancing technologies and innovative protocols are also encouraged. We also seek submissions that describe the selection process for appropriate devices and sensors, analytical approaches to monitoring the health of reinforced and prestressed concrete and interpreting recorded data sets, work focused on implementing structural health monitoring for safe, resilient and reliable concrete infrastructure, and lessons learnt from the advanced monitoring of the structural health of reinforced concrete structures.
