Structural Health Monitoring Lab (SHM-Lab) focuses on the development of next-generation sensing, diagnostics, and prognostics technologies for safe, reliable, and resilient engineering systems. Our research integrates physics-based modeling, advanced sensing, signal processing, and machine learning to enable real-time condition assessment and damage diagnosis in complex structures.
The lab addresses critical challenges in aerospace, energy, nuclear, and civil infrastructure systems, where traditional inspection methods are often costly, intrusive, or insufficient for large-area and complex geometries. By combining non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques with data-driven intelligence, the SHM Lab aims to transition laboratory innovations into deployable, field-ready technologies.
Our vision is to enable continuous, reliable, and scalable structural health monitoring by moving beyond point-based inspections toward global, intelligent sensing systems. We seek to answer fundamental and applied questions such as:
