Title:

Innovative Smart Cement Composite Sensors for Impedance Based Corrosion Monitoring in Structures

Value Proposition:

NA

Summary Application:
  • Structural health monitoring
  • Embedded sensing
Advantages:

The developed CNC sensor has very high potential for their use as embedded sensors. It paves the new path for using the CNC sensors for corrosion monitoring and assessment of structures. The large concrete structures (specially critical structures susceptible to environmental degradation due to corrosion) will be easy monitored using these sensors where the sensors can be embedded in the structure for long term monitoring. Due to effectiveness, nominal cost and robustness, the sensors will be a game-changer in the domain of health monitoring of civil (prestressed and reinforced concrete) structures.
