SHMII-2'2005 provided international scientists, engineers,
enterprisers and young researchers with a forum for exchange about
recent advances, potential international cooperation and
multi-disciplinary activities. Ideas were pooled about the
state-of-the-art, state-of-the-practice, and future trends of smart
sensors, advanced sensor networks and integrated systems for
structural health monitoring of intelligent infrastructures, and
"real-time monitored data" based damage identification and
localization, model updating, safety evaluation and reliability
forecast and also damage control, maintenance and retrofit
decision-making, and life-cycle performance-based design of
infrastructures. Topics covered in these proceedings include: Smart
and Advanced Sensors, Wireless and Advanced Sensor Networks, Data
Acquisition, Processing and Management, Damage Identification and
Localization, Model Updating, Safety Evaluation and Reliability
Forecasting, Damage Control, Repair and Strengthening, Smart
Materials and Structures, Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and
Systems Analysing Wind and Earthquake, Hazard Mitigation of Civil
Infrastructure, Remote Monitoring Systems, Integrated Systems and
Implementations of SHM.
This book presents the latest research advances and findings in the
field of smart/multifunctional concretes, focusing on the
principles, design and fabrication, test and characterization,
performance and mechanism, and their applications in
infrastructures. It also discusses future challenges in the
development and application of smart/multifunctional concretes,
providing useful theory, ideas and principles, as well as insights
and practical guidance for developing sustainable infrastructures.
It is a valuable resource for researchers, scientists and engineers
in the field of civil-engineering materials and infrastructures.

Corrosion of Reinforced Concrete Structures: Mechanism, Monitoring
and Control presents research, theory and practice on the control
of corrosion in reinforced concrete structures. The title is a
comprehensive guide to corrosion, its monitoring and prevention in
reinforced concrete structures. It considers the essential
mechanisms of corrosion, provides key monitoring techniques,
describes how to effectively control corrosion, and how to
establish a cyber-physical protection system. As corrosion is one
of the most significant factors in the deterioration of civil
engineering structures globally, and with concrete the world's most
utilized manufactured material, this book highlights strategies to
keep corrosion from becoming a serious threat.
Concrete is the second most used building material in the world
after water. The problem is that over time the material becomes
weaker. As a response, researchers and designers are developing
self-sensing concrete which not only increases longevity but also
the strength of the material. Self-Sensing Concrete in Smart
Structures provides researchers and designers with a guide to the
composition, sensing mechanism, measurement, and sensing properties
of self-healing concrete along with their structural applications
This book focuses on civil engineering materials and
nanotechnology. Highlighting recent advances in the field of
nano-engineered cementitious composites, it discusses their key
principles, design and fabrication, testing and characterization,
performance and mechanisms, as well as applications. Future
developments and remaining challenges are also outlined.
Nano-engineered cementitious composites are exceptionally strong,
durable and offer multifunctional/smart performance that differs
considerably from that of normal cementitious composites. Providing
valuable insights into these composites' future development, the
book offers an essential source of information, inspiration, theory
and practical guidance for developing sustainable cementitious
composites. As such, it will benefit researchers, scientists and
engineers in the fields of civil engineering materials and
nanotechnology alike.
