  • Structural health monitoring system and method using soft capacitive sensing materials
    Patent number: 8384398
    Abstract: A structural health monitoring system is provided to diagnose and localize crack damage on structural elements. The system uses one or more capacitive sensor assemblies that employ a soft dielectric material. The system can be applied over a large area as a sensing skin, allowing the presence of cracks to be localized.
