A structural health monitoring method proposal based on optical scanning and computational models by Wendy Flores-Fuentes, Ivan Yeniseysk Alba-Corpus, Oleg Sergiyenko, Julio C. Rodríguez-Quiñonez

“…The evaluation of such correlation is mandatory in order to verify if the observed bridge displacement is due to the nature of its operation or due to it is presenting structural damage. The proposed method is continuous structural health monitoring method, based on the combination of three approaches evaluated at laboratory environment: (1) a three-dimensional optical scanning system for displacement measurement, (2) a load measurement system for vehicle–bridge interaction assessment, and (3) a two-measurement systems data correlation; to be implemented in bridges at a real environment to collect their historical behavior. …”

Influence of technological factors of melting on the structure and properties of modified heat‑resistant chrome bronzes by F. G. Lovshenko, I. A. Lozikov

“…The phase composition and physico‑mechanical properties of experimental bronzes have been studied.It has been established that the use of a mechanically fused modifying ligature with a high content of alloying component having chromium particles close to micro‑/nanodisperse size with a non‑oxidized surface and a highly effective deoxidizer modifier reduces the temperature and duration of melting, obtaining alloys with a microcrystalline type of structure (2–5 microns) and a complex of physico‑mechanical properties not inferior to, and in terms of heat resistance superior analogues, which is confirmed by the data of production tests at JSC “Belcard” (Grodno, RB) of contact spot welding electrodes made of experimental bronzes, which are 3.8 times more resistant than those used by the plant.…”
