Optimal Sensor Placement for Health Monitoring of Civil Structures

In this paper we focus on comparing three candidate approaches to the optimal placement of sensors for state estimation-based continuous health monitoring of structures. The first aims to minimize the static estimation error of the structure deflections, using the...

An Integrated Tool for Estimation of Material Model Parameters

In this paper, we present results on estimating material model parameters from inverse analysis of full-field deformation data that was obtained with a prototype of a novel integrated tool consisting of a digital image correlation system and software for data analysis...

Multi-Scale Model of the RF Diode Sputter Deposition of GMR Thin Films

A reactor-scale model incorporating the principal physical processes involved in RF diode sputtering has been developed and then integrated into a detailed steady-state input-output model of the growth of copper films. The model links critical aspects of the process...
