ABSTRACT
Structural health monitoring (SHM) is a means of identifying damage from structural response to environmental loads. Real-time SHM is of particular use for rapid assessment of structural safety by owners and civil defense authorities.Thegoals ofseismicimpactassessmentcan beachievedby seismicmonitoringsystemsandseismic impactsimulator.Seismicmonitoringsystem,forthepurposeofhazardanalysis,localsiteeffects analysis,vulnerabilityanalysis,and estimationofloss,isoneapplicationofSHMinearthquake engineering.Aprototype,conceptualseismicimpact simulatorintegratingSHM,FEM,GIS,and Virtual Reality (VR) techniques hasalso been proposed as the potential future research direction.
