Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and system for pavement structural performance evaluation based on long-range laser vibration measurement. The method can more accurately evaluate the structural performance of the pavement by detecting the actual deflection value of the pavement during aircraft operation; By obtaining real-time deflection data of the airport runway, it is possible to detect changes in the structural performance of the airport runway in the long term without affecting the normal operation of the airport runway. The present invention has strong anti-interference ability, stable detection results, and can achieve non-contact, large-scale, and high-precision measurement of airport pavement deflection.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring conditions in a crawl space is provided. The system generally comprises at least one sensor, computing device, data aggregator operably connected to the at least one sensor, processor operably connected to the computing device, power supply, and non-transitory computer-readable medium coupled to the processor and having instructions stored thereon. The system is designed to collect condition data via the at least one sensor and determine whether the conditions within the crawl space could have a detrimental impact on the building. In particular, the system is designed to alert a third-party when a condition might cause damage to a building so that the third-party might correct the cause of the condition.

Abstract: An inventive approach is disclosed to integrate Digital Image Correlation (DIC) with the Acoustic Emission method that may be used for structural health monitoring and assessment of critical structural components in civil, mechanical, and aerospace industries. The inventive approach relies on passively recording acoustic emission across the specimen being tested and activating the DIC cameras automatically to measure deformation on the specimen's surface. The resulting acousto-optic system can be used to determine damage initiation, progressive damage development, identify critical regions and make lifetime predictions of the tested specimen.
