Summary
Transportation infrastructure constitutes the foundation of global socioeconomic development. However, its long-term performance is continually compromised by severe environmental conditions, increasing traffic demands, extreme events, and intrinsic material degradation. Timely and accurate identification of early-stage damage, along with systematic structural health monitoring, is essential for ensuring operational safety, prolonging service life, optimizing maintenance strategies, and enhancing the resilience and sustainability of transportation infrastructure systems.
This Special Issue highlights advanced damage recognition pertaining to material design, performance evaluation, and structural response analysis. It invites original research and review articles that explore micro-macro damage evolution, mechanical response characterization, and multi-index damage quantification of civil and transportation materials. Relevant topics include experimental testing, numerical simulation, intelligent detection methods, and mechanism-driven damage assessment technologies, all of which align with the objectives of the journal Structural Durability & Health Monitoring.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
· Damage evolution and failure mechanisms
· Performance evaluation and deterioration characterization
· Intelligent detection and damage recognition
· Structural response and early damage warning
· Durability assessment and long-term health monitoring
· Non-destructive testing and data-driven monitoring
Keywords
damage recognition, structural health monitoring, transportation infrastructure, material deterioration, durability assessment
