Impedance-Based Cable Force Monitoring in Tendon-Anchorage Using Portable PZT-Interface Technique

In this paper, a portable PZT interface for tension force monitoring in the cable-anchorage subsystem is developed. Firstly, the theoretical background of the impedance-based method is presented. A few damage evaluation approaches are outlined to quantify the variation of impedance signatures. Secon...
