- Description:
- The textbook proceeds with an introduction to theory and concept building, moves to an explanation of causal inference (how do we 'know' whether something is causal?), and then provides a quick introduction to data and hypothesis testing. Following that, each chapter is devoted to a particular research method used within...

- Description:
- A remote global monitoring system is being operated on a 65 year old lift bridge in Sturgeon Bay Wisconsin. The system uses both strain gages and clinometers to continuously monitor the "health" of the fracture critical components of the bridge. Ruggedized miniaturized data loggers are locally mounted on the structure...

- Description:
- This paper describes application of AE monitoring techniques to localize the sources of large noises in civil structures. These noises occur during operation of moveable portions of a structure in such things as lift bridges and moveable sports stadium roofs. The use of straightforward AE monitoring techniques can provide clear...

- Description:
- Acoustic emission (AE) testing was used to identify the source of audible “bangs” generated during opening and closing of a large, double-leaf rolling-lift bascule bridge. The data were analyzed using a combination of well-established AE techniques, including first hit analysis (FHA), planar location analysis, and linear location analysis. The FHA...

- Description:
- Scour is by far the primary cause of bridge failures in the United States. Scour and other hydraulic effects are particularly threatening because the deterioration is often invisible, hidden beneath turbid water. Many scour monitoring methods attempt to measure the development of scour pockets themselves. However, this is difficult due...
