Summary
In modern urban environments, the health of structural infrastructure – encompassing roads, bridges, tunnels, and other critical elements – is crucial for the everyday functioning and well-being of city residents. These infrastructures, key to seamless operation and economic vitality, are currently facing challenges from climate change, urbanization, aging, and natural hazards. The development of structural health monitoring (SHM), non-destructive testing (NDT), digital twins, and novel functional construction materials has become critical. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly central in these areas, offering advanced solutions for real-time monitoring, condition assessment, and ensuring the resilience of these vital infrastructures. The encouraged topics include but are not limited to:
1. Recent advancements in structural health monitoring and sensor technologies.
2. State-of-the-art non-destructive testing methods
3. Digital twins and AI methods relevant to resilient infrastructures.
4. Intelligent constructional materials with self-sensing and adaptive functionalities.
5. Modern data processing techniques for sustainable and recycling material practices.
