본 논문은 저전력 무선 임피던스 기반 구조물 건전성 감시 USN 시스템을 활용하여 electro-mechanical Impedance 센서의 일종인 PZT센서를 부착한 배관 구조물의 건전성을 진단하는 방법과 그 실험 결과에 대해 소개 한다. 기존에는 건설구조물에 가해지는 전기적인 입출력비에 해당하는 임피던스를 계측하기 위해서 비교적 고가의 대형 계측 장비가 필요로 했으며, 구조물에 설치된 센서를 계측장비에 연결하기 위한 유선의 케이블 작업 역시 추가로 필요했었다. 대형 배관 구조물의 경우에는 이러한 문제점 때문에 임피던스를 이용한 능동형 센서가 제대로 활용되지 못하고 있고 비정기적인 비파괴검사에만 국한되어 사용되어 왔다. USN기술은 저전력 소출력 무선통신을 통해 기존의 계측시스템과는 다른 상시모니터링의 장점을 가지고 있는 기술로서 최근 토목/건설 분야에서 적극적으로 활용이 되는 융합기술이다. 본 논문에서 구조물 건전성 감시 분야와 저전력 무선 계측 기술의 통합을 통해 얻어진 최적화된 배관 건전도 진단 센서 노드의 효율성을 정량적 실험 데이터를 통해 입증하고, 앞으로의 연구 방향에 대한 제안으로 끝을 맺는다.

Various studies have been conducted on the structural health monitoring using optical fiber. Optical fibers can be used to measure multiple and distributed strain. Among the optical fiber sensors, FBG sensor has advantages of dynamic response measurement and high precision, but the number of measurement points is limited. Distributed fiber sensors, represented by distributed Brillouin sensors, usually have more than 1000 measurement points, but the low sampling rate makes dynamic measurements impossible. In this study, a hybrid nerve sensor system using only the advantages of the FBG sensor and the distributed Brillouin sensor has been proposed. Laboratory experiments were performed to verify the proposed system, and the accuracy and reproducibility were verified by comparing with commercial sensors. Applying the proposed system, dynamic response ambient measurements are used to evaluate the global state of the structure. When an abnormal condition is detected, the local condition of the structure is evaluated by static response measurement using the distributed measurement system. The proposed system can be used for efficient structural health monitoring.

최근 교량 및 발전구조물, 고층빌딩과 같은 대형 사회기반시설물의 유지관리를 위한 스마트 계측 및 모니터링 기술에 관한 관심과 연구개발 및 적용사례가 증가하고 있다. 특히 국내에서는 과거 '한강의 기적'이라 일컬어지는 초고속 경제성장과정에서 교량, 터널, 항만, 공항, 발전소, 댐 등 대형 사회기반시설물의 건설이 급증하였으나, 설계 당시에 고려되지 못하였던 각종 하중 조건과 환경 요인으로 인해 구조 건전성(structural integrity)의 저하가 일어나고 있다. 또한 최근 도서생활권의 향상 및 물류비용의 개선, 고속전철사업 등으로 인한 장대 교량의 건설, 효율적 국토이용을 위한 초고층빌딩의 건설, 석유자원의 고갈에 대비한 다양한 형태의 발전구조물의 건설 등이 증가하고 있으며, 이들 사회기반시설물의 유지관리를 위한 스마트 계측 및 모니터링 시스템이 더욱 중요해지고 있다.

Recently, structure safety management techniques using cutting-edge technology(Displacement senor, sensor of acceleration) has emerged as an important issue owing to the aging of infrastructure such as bridge and building. In general, the structural monitoring system for structure safety management is based on IT technology and it is expensive to install. In this paper developed an image-based structure dynamic characteristic analysis system prototype to assess the damage of structure in a more cost-effective way than traditional structure health monitoring system. The inspector can take a video of buildings or other structures with digital camera or any other devices that is passible to take video, and then using NCC calculation for image processing technique to get natural frequency. This system is analysis of damage of the structure using a compare between the frequency response ratio and functions when problems are occurs send alarm to administrator. This system is easier to install and remove than previous monitoring sensor in economical way.

Wired monitoring systems have been used for damage detection and dynamic analysis of large structures(bridges, dams, plants, etc.). However, the real-world applications still remain limited, mainly due to time and cost issues inherent to wired systems. In recent years, an increasing number of researchers have adopted WSN(wireless sensor network) technologies to the field of SHM(structural health monitoring). Accurate time synchronization is most critical for the wireless approach to be feasible for SHM purpose, along with sufficient wireless bandwidth and highly precise measuring resolution. To satisfy technical criteria stated above, a wireless vibration monitoring system that uses high-precision MEMS(micro-electro-mechanical system) sensors and A/D convertor is discussed in detail. It was found experimentally that the level of time synchronization fell within $200\;{\mu}sec$.

Recently, buildings tend to be large size, complex shape and functional. As the size of buildings is becoming massive, the need for structural health monitoring(SHM) technique is ever-increasing. Various SHM techniques have been studied for buildings which have different dynamic characteristics and are influenced by various external loads. Generally, the visual inspection and non-destructive test for an accessible point of structures are performed by experts. But nowadays, the system is required which is online measurement and detect risk elements automatically without blind spots on structures. In this study, in order to consider the response of non-linear structures, proposed a signal feature extraction and the adaptive threshold setting algorithm utilized to determine the abnormal behavior by using statistical methods such as control chart, root mean square deviation, generalized extremely distribution. And the performance of that was validated by using the acceleration response of structures during earthquakes measuring system of forced vibration tests and actual operation.

Monitoring is the act of collecting and analyzing accurate engineering information using various methods and instruments. The purposes of the monitoring are design verification, construction management, quality control, safety management, and diagnose of structure etc.. The diagnose evaluation of the geotechnical structures corresponds to the confirmation of the structural performance. It is aimed to judge the soundness of geotechnical structures considering the degree of damage due to the environmental change and elapsed time. Recently, microseismicity, which is widely known in Korea, can be used for safety management and diagnoses of structure as it detects the micro-damage without disturbance of the structure. This report provides guideline on the procedure for assessing an underground oil storage cavern using microseismic monitoring techniques. Guidelines cover the selection of monitoring systems, sensor array, sensor installation and operation of systems, and interpretation.

This study aims to develop a wireless communication system for long-term monitoring of high-level radioactive waste disposal facilities. Conventional wired sensors can lead to a deterioration in buffer quality and management difficulties due to the use of cables for power supply and data transmission. This study proposes the adoption of a wireless communication system and compares the received signal strengths within bentonite using modules such as WiFi, ZigBee, and LoRa. Increases in dry density of bentonite and distance between transceivers led to reduced received signal strength. Additionally, using the low-frequency band exhibited less signal attenuation. Based on these findings, a conceptual design for a wireless network-based THM integrated sensor system was proposed. Results of this study can be used as foundational data for long-term monitoring of disposal facility.
