Title: | MEMS-based system for structural health monitoring and earthquake observation in Sicily | Issue Date: | Jul-2020 | DOI: | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-64594-6_10 | Keywords: | Structural health monitoring, Urban seismic network, Earthquake observation, Seismic risk reduction. | Abstract: | The implementation of systems for Structural Health Monitoring and Earthquake Observation is increasing in the last years owing to the development of new technologies which enable low-cost and small-size devices to be installed in large-scale or high-density applications. This paper introduces the implementation of monitoring systems, either for structural health assessment and earthquake observation. The applications are based in Sicily (Italy), a region characterized by a high seismic hazard and where the buildings are often old and vulnerable. The system relies on a MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems) sensor, a 3-axial accelerometer which has been specifically selected in order to ensure the suitability for the specific applications: accelerations from 100 to 102 Hz. We present the details of the designed monitoring station, of the network architecture, and some of the recorded data. |
