This paper describes a real-world application of an SHM system in an industrial steel tower structure. This is a high steel structure, containing several mechanical equipment with different loads, which operate at various frequencies.<\/p><p>The monitoring approach includes a computer modeling of the structure, primarily used to define the sensor network. The sensors were mounted at predetermined locations designed to continuously measure vibrations and deformations at critical points. The sensor network consists of an array of sensors and a gateway.<\/p><p>The sensors include strain gauges and triaxial accelerometers, as well as other weather sensors. Data are acquired both from time series of values observed at regular intervals and from structurally relevant measured values, called events,<br \/>where specific data are collected. Machine learning is used in the development of statistical models for feature discrimination.<\/p><p>A visualization user interface is provided to access all data through a user friendly and accessible tool. The paper presents the main results obtained so far, with the primary assessment of the structural health conditions.<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><b>AUTHORS |<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">\u00a0Jo\u00e3o Zeferino\u00aa, Eduardo Gon\u00e7alves\u00aa, Paulo Carapito<\/span><span style=\"background-color: #ffffff; color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">\u00aa<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">Filipe Santos<\/span><span style=\"background-color: #ffffff; color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight );\">\u00aa<\/span><\/p><p>VESAM Engenharia S.A., Zona Industrial de Cantanhede, Lote 69, 3060-197 Cantanhede, Portugal<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>Paper presented at the CSHM-8 Workshop, 29-31 March, 2021, Italy.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-176a79b elementor-widget elementor-widget-stal_core_button\" data-id=\"176a79b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"stal_core_button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"qodef-shortcode qodef-m  qodef-button qodef-layout--splitted  qodef-html--link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vesamgroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Monitoring-system-of-an-industrial-steel-tower-structure.pdf\" target=\"_self\"  >\n    <span class=\"qodef-m-text\">\n        See paper        <svg class=\"qodef-m-arrowline\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" x=\"0px\" y=\"0px\" viewBox=\"0 0 63 20\" xml:space=\"preserve\">\n                            <line x1=\"61.6\" y1=\"10\" x2=\"61.6\" y2=\"10\"\/>\n                            <line x1=\"62\" y1=\"10\" x2=\"61.6\" y2=\"10\"\/>\n                            <line x1=\"61.6\" y1=\"10\" x2=\"1\" y2=\"10\"\/>\n                            <path d=\"M61.6,10\"\/>\n                            <line x1=\"61.6\" y1=\"10\" x2=\"61.6\" y2=\"10\"\/>\n                            <line class=\"arrow-up\" x1=\"56.7\" y1=\"5.1\" x2=\"61.6\" y2=\"10\"\/>\n                            <path d=\"M61.6,10\"\/>\n                            <line x1=\"61.6\" y1=\"10\" x2=\"61.6\" y2=\"10\"\/>\n                            <line class=\"arrow-down\" x1=\"61.6\" y1=\"10\" x2=\"56.7\" y2=\"14.9\"\/>\n                        <\/svg>    <\/span>\n    <span class=\"qodef-m-split qodef-split--up\"><\/span>\n    <span class=\"qodef-m-split qodef-split--down\"><\/span>\n<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paper presented at the CSHM-8 Workshop, 29-31 March, 2021, Italy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":13011,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[100],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.3 -
