Analysis of the Impact of Sustained Load and Temperature on the Performance of the Electromechanical Impedance Technique through Multilevel Machine Learning and FBG Sensors

The electro-mechanical impedance (EMI) technique has been applied successfully to detect minor damage in engineering structures including reinforced concrete (RC). However, in the presence of temperature variations, it can cause false alarms in structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. This p...
