Structural Health Monitoring of Precast Concrete Box Girders Using Selected Vibration-Based Damage Detection Methods by Zhengjie Zhou, Leon D. Wegner, Bruce F. Sparling

“…All methods were capable of detecting and localizing damage to a region within approximately 1.6 times the longitudinal spacing between as few as six uniformly distributed accelerometers. Strain gauges configured to measure curvature were also effective, but tended to be susceptible to large errors in near support damage cases. …”

A New Sensors-Based Covert Channel on Android by Ahmed Al-Haiqi, Mahamod Ismail, Rosdiadee Nordin

“…This paper is an attempt to reveal a new covert channel, not only being specific to smartphones, but also exploiting an unusual resource as a vehicle to carry covert information: sensors data. Accelerometers generate signals that reflect user motions, and malware applications can apparently only read their data. …”

Damping Effects Induced by a Mass Moving along a Pendulum by E. Gandino, S. Marchesiello, A. Bellino, A. Fasana, L. Garibaldi

“…Signals are acquired from a rotary sensor, but some remarks are also proposed as regards signals measured by piezoelectric or capacitive accelerometers. Time-varying inertia due to the relative motion of the mass is associated with the Coriolis-type effects appearing in the system, which can reduce and also amplify the oscillations. …”

Nonlinear Seismic Performance Evaluation of Flexural Slotted Connection Using Endurance Time Method by Seyed Mohamad Seyed Kolbadi, Hosein Piri, Ali Keyhani, S.Mahdi Seyed-Kolbadi, Masoud Mirtaheri

“…Among these methods, the third one is more accurate; however, it requires more time to align the accelerometers due to a large number of analyses. In the endurance time (ET) method, incremental acceleration functions gradually and uniformly increases over time while their linear and nonlinear response spectra are proportional to the mean of the real seismic spectrum. …”
