Multifunctional Vehicle Structural Health Monitoring with Piezoelectric Wafer Active Sensors

These sensors can be networked to monitor the structural health of aircraft and other vehicles.

A novel structural health monitoring (SHM) concept of embedded nondestructive evaluation with piezoelectric wafer active sensors (PWAS) has been developed. PWAS can be structurally embedded as both individual probes and phased arrays. They ...

Acoustic Detection Using Reverberation

Understanding acoustic effects of the suspended sediment layer undersea can lead to the development of acoustic sensors to detect buried targets such as sea mines.

Acoustic detection of undersea objects is difficult due to the uncertain environment and even more difficult when the objects are buried in the ...
