Real-time fault diagnosis and prediction in structures under earthquake excitation

A large number of civil engineering structures in North America have long survived their expected service life. As they continue to age, there is a significant demand to minimize damage under severe environmental impacts such as earthquake. The main objective of this project is to develop and validate vibration-based monitoring and control strategies using modern sensing technologies. During the course of this research, the testing facilities and the large shaking table at the IIT Kanpur will be extensively used by the applicant with the supervision of the academic supervisor of host university (Dr. Samit Ray Chaudhuri) and home university (Dr. Ayan Sadhu).
