Vehicle count and weight data plays an important role in traffic planning, weight enforcement, and pavement condition assessment. This data is primarily obtained through weigh stations and weigh-in-motion stations which are currently very expensive to install and maintain. This dissertation presents a wireless sensor-based solution that is relatively inexpensive, and uses the measured pavement vibrations to estimate weight of moving vehicles. The proposed wireless sensor network (WSN) consists of vibration sensors that report pavement acceleration and temperature; vehicle detection sensors that report a vehicle's arrival and departure times; and an access point (AP) that controls the sensors and processes the incoming sensor data. The system can enable many new applications in infrastructure monitoring and intelligent transportation. We present energy-efficient algorithms for three such applications: automatic vehicle classification for categorizing each passing vehicle based on its axle count and inter-axle spacings; weigh-in-motion for estimating individual axle weight and total weight of trucks while they are traveling at normal speeds; and estimating pavement displacement from measured acceleration. The wireless vibration sensor developed for this project has a high resolution (≈ 400 [mu]g) and is immune to traffic sounds that are generally picked up by MEMS accelerometers. The prototype system was deployed on real highways and results for vehicle classification, weigh- in-motion, and displacement estimation were compared against reference measurements. The system passed the accuracy standards for weigh-in-motion (WIM) systems and outperformed a nearby commercial WIM station, based on conventional technology. Since sensors are embedded directly in the pavement, the system can also enable real-time monitoring of pavement condition.

Sensors are the eyes or/and ears of an intelligent system, such as UAV, AGV and robots. With the development of material, signal processing, and multidisciplinary interactions, more and more smart sensors are proposed and fabricated under increasing demands for homes, the industry, and military fields. Networks of sensors will be able to enhance the ability to obtain huge amounts of information (big data) and improve precision, which also mirrors the developmental tendency of modern sensors. Moreover, artificial intelligence is a novel impetus for sensors and networks, which gets sensors to learn and think and feed more efficient results back. This book includes new research results from academia and industry, on the subject of “Smart Sensors and Networks”, especially sensing technologies utilizing Artificial Intelligence. The topics include: smart sensors biosensors sensor network sensor data fusion artificial intelligence deep learning mechatronics devices for sensors applications of sensors for robotics and mechatronics devices

In the past, when elements in structures were composed of perishable materials, such as wood, the maintenance of houses, bridges, etc., was considered of vital importance for their safe use and to preserve their efficiency. With the advent of materials such as reinforced concrete and steel, given their relatively long useful life, periodic and constant maintenance has often been considered a secondary concern. When it was realized that even for structures fabricated with these materials that the useful life has an end and that it was being approached, planning maintenance became an important and non-negligible aspect. Thus, the concept of structural health monitoring (SHM) was introduced, designed, and implemented as a multidisciplinary method. Computational mechanics, static and dynamic analysis of structures, electronics, sensors, and, recently, the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) are required, but it is also important to consider new materials, especially those with intrinsic self-diagnosis characteristics, and to use measurement and survey methods typical of modern geomatics, such as satellite surveys and highly sophisticated laser tools.

Improved Approach To Enforcement Of Road Weight Restrictions written by Lee Alexander and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2013 with Motor vehicle scales categories.
This project focused on the enhancement and evaluation of a battery-less wireless weigh-in-motion (WIM) sensor for improved enforcement of road weight restrictions. The WIM sensor is based on a previously developed vibration energy harvesting system, in which energy is harvested from the vibrations induced by each passing vehicle to power the sensor. The sensor was re-designed in this project so as to reduce its height, allow it to be installed and grouted in an asphalt pavement, and to protect the piezo stacks and other components from heavy shock loads. Two types of software interfaces were developed in the project: a) An interface from which the signals could be read on the MnDOT intranet b) An interface through a wireless handheld display Tests were conducted at MnRoad with a number of test vehicles, including a semi tractor-trailer at a number of speeds from 10 to 50 mph. The sensor had a monotonically increasing response with vehicle weight. There was significant variability in sensor response from one test to another, especially at the higher vehicle speeds. This variability could be attributed to truck suspension vibrations, since accelerometer measurements on the truck showed significant vibrations, especially at higher vehicle speeds. MnDOT decided that the final size of the sensor was too big and could pose a hazard to the traveling public if it got dislodged from the road. Hence the task on evaluation of the sensor at a real-world traffic location was abandoned and the budget for the project correspondingly reduced.
