Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is a continuation of our previous Special Issue titled “Novel Sensors for Structural Health Monitoring”.
In recent years, many researchers have developed novel sensors driven by the growth in sensing technologies combined with the easier access to data acquisition, processing, and storage systems. Among other advantages, these solutions have the ability to be flexible, as they can be customized and adapted to each specific case under study.
This Special Issue is dedicated to the dissemination of research work in this area, with a special focus on problems involving the heath monitoring of different types of structures.
Dr. Carlos Moutinho
Guest Editor
