Abstract Isothermal Storage Tanks (IST) contains tens thousands tons of the liquefied gases (propane, ethane, ethylene, etc.) at very low temperatures. These are the most dangerous industrial objects. In the report the Integrated Structural Health Monitoring (ISHM) Systems for the management of the integrity of these tanks in real time is considered. The structure of the ISHM Systems, NDT methods, technical characteristics, data verification procedures, a decision-making algorithm and practical results are described.

Abstract This paper closely examines the nature of the dielectric response of piezoceramics that are used as Adaptive Piezoelectric Sensoriactuators (APSAs). Firstly, it is demonstrated that he APSA possesses real time structural health monitoring abilities, based on the capacitance measurement of the piezoceramic. Secondly, nonideal behavior including lossy, hysteretic, and field dependence is measured in the piezoceramics and a method mitigating some of this response in the Adaptive Piezoelectric Sensoriactuator is proposed.

The integration of internet of things, artificial intelligence, and blockchain enabled the monitoring of structural health with unattended and automated means. Remote monitoring mandates intelligent automated decision-making capability, which is still absent in present solutions. The proposed solution in this chapter contemplates the architecture of smart sensors, customized for individual structures, to regulate the monitoring of structural health through stress, strain, and bolted joints looseness. Long range sensors are deployed for transmitting the messages a longer distance than existing techniques. From the simulated results, different sensors record the monitoring information and transmit to the blockchain platform in terms of pressure points, temperature, pre-tension force, and the architecture deems the criticality of transactions. Blockchain platform will also be responsible for storage and accessibility of information from a decentralized medium, automation, and security.

In this paper, we propose an innovative structural health monitoring (SHM) system for large transmission towers that are frequently subjected to strong winds. The system is based on the strategy of using a static force equilibrium equation to calculate the whole structure’s real-time stress distribution according to its real-time behavior, as captured by the global positioning system (GPS). The reason for adopting this approach is that large transmission towers are fundamentally quasi-static structures and they are not prone to resonance under wind excitations. A case study is used to present the SHM system, then its effectiveness is validated by comparing the simulated SHM results with the exact solution obtained by a realistic time-history dynamic analysis. Additionally, we discuss the use of a new reliability analysis method based on the Ditlevsen’s bounds to assess the real-time structural conditions.
