Structural health monitoring

The project develops acoustic sensors based on nanofiber composite films for structural health monitoring. Research covers fabrication, electromechanical and optical or thermal characterization, electronics and data acquisition, moving from materials to working sensing prototypes. Applications close on 17 November 2026 at 23:59 US Eastern time.

…The project aims to understand the structural response of concrete dams in normal operation, decide what should be measured and where sensors should be placed, identify suitable sensor types and set reasonable alarm limits, in collaboration with senior KTH researchers
