Design of vibrational and solar energy harvesting systems for powering wireless sensor networks in bridge structural health monitoring applications

Structural health monitoring systems provide a promising route to real-time data for analyzing the current state of large structures. In the wake of two high-profile bridge collapses due to an aging highway infrastructure, the interest in implementing such systems into fracture-critical and structur...
