Abstract

The rapid ageing of civil and mechanical infrastructure has intensified the demand for continuous and autonomous structural health monitoring (SHM). Conventional inspection methods, being periodic, labour-intensive, and data-limited, are increasingly replaced by sensor-based systems that can track different parameters such as dynamic strain under service loads. However, current dynamic strain monitoring systems are challenged by power limitations, calibration instability, and measurement bias under complex service loads. Addressing these challenges requires a new generation of compact, intelligent, and self-reliant sensing nodes capable of accurately detecting dynamic strain.....
