Long-Term Dynamic Monitoring of Post-Tensioning External Tendons: Temperature Effect Evaluation by Luis Chillitupa-Palomino, Carlos M. C. Renedo, Jaime H. García-Palacios, Iván M. Díaz

“…However, for long-term monitoring assessment, two main challenges have to be addressed regarding practical applications: (i) double-peak spectra and other spurious factors that affect the frequency estimation, and (ii) temperature dependency, which needs to be carefully treated since frequency/tension variation may be explained by temperature variation, thus masking potential structural anomalies. …”

Nondestructive Detection of Osmotic Damage in GFRP Boat Hulls Using Active Infrared Thermography Methods by Endri Garafulić, Petra Bagavac, Lovre Krstulović-Opara

“…This article presents the application of infrared thermography as a nondestructive testing method (NDT) for detecting osmotic damage in glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) and glass-reinforced polymer (GRP) boat hull structures. The aim of the conducted experiments is to explore the possibilities of applying active infrared thermography to real structures and to establish a procedure capable of filtering out anomalies caused by various thermal influences, such as thermal reflections from surrounding objects, geometry effects, and heat flow variations on the observed object. …”
