TY - CONF A1 - Herrmann, Ralf T1 - SHM system integration and experiments at a high speed railway bridge N2 - The long-term preservation of our infrastructure requires not only intelligent sensor technology and highly developed monitoring procedures, but also innovative digital tools for analyzing, evaluating and utilizing the results. This includes mathematical and, in particular, probabilistic methods for damage detection and tracking as well as for calculating service life and maintenance cycles and data management. The example project Maintal Bridge Gemuenden as part of the AISTEC project shows the workflow for the implementation of structural health monitoring and experimental tests with a train of Deutsche Bahn. The influence lines, as one possible way for damage detection, were measured with a highly accurate GNSS System to locate the trains position when crossing the bridge. The results were compared to measurements from 1987 just before the bridge went in operation.

Für visuelle ZfP-Techniken, wie die in dieser Studie verwendete Risslumineszenz-Methode, ist die Automatisierung der Fehlererkennung durch KI-gestützte Computer-Vision-Systeme ein logischer nächster Schritt. Findet dies als kontinuierliche Überwachung statt, entwickeln sich solche Systeme zu einer KI-gestützten SHM-Methode. Die Implementierung dieser Technologien in sicherheitskritischen Anwendungen erfordert jedoch einen robusten Nachweis ihrer Zuverlässigkeit, der durch diese Weiterentwicklung an Komplexität gewinnt. Während etablierte Standards für Probability of Detection (POD)-Studien in ZfP-Systemen existieren, fehlen entsprechende Normen für SHM-Systeme, insbesondere solche, die KI einsetzen. Obwohl statistische Methoden für SHM-Systeme verfügbar sind, um Datenabhängigkeiten zu berücksichtigen, ist ein ganzheitlicher POD-Ansatz notwendig, um beeinflussende und variable Störfaktoren umfassend zu adressieren und die Alterung des SHM-Systems zu berücksichtigen. Diese Arbeit demonstriert Fortschritte bei der Entwicklung einer maßgeschneiderten Methodik, die auf die spezifischen Anforderungen zugeschnitten ist, um die Zuverlässigkeit eines KI-gestützten SHM-Systems auf Basis der Risslumineszenz nachzuweisen. Dieser Ansatz integriert die Prinzipien von POD-Studien mit statistischen Methoden für SHM-Systeme, um eine robuste Zuverlässigkeitsbewertung zu gewährleisten. Er verdeutlicht die erheblichen Herausforderungen, die bereits bei der kontinuierlichen Überwachung einer relativ einfachen visuellen Methode wie der Risslumineszenz auftreten.

However, the associated technical challenges and model requirements are context-specific and vary widely across applications. To illustrate the relevance and potential of the topic, two application examples are presented. The first focuses on monitoring the modal characteristics of a prestressed road bridge, where strong sensitivity to temperature variations limits the diagnostic capabilities of conventional vibration-based global monitoring. The discussion highlights how environmental influences can obscure structural changes, and emphasizes that purely data-based approaches are inherently limited to detecting anomalies and do not enable comprehensive condition diagnostics. The second example explores a physics-informed monitoring approach for prestressed concrete bridges affected by hydrogen-induced stress corrosion cracking.

This study examines the use of smart digital acceleration sensors, specifically MEMS accelerometers with CAN bus interfaces, deployed on the Nibelungen Bridge in Worms, Germany. The research evaluates the sensors' performance and calibration through laboratory and in-situ measurements, focusing on traffic load detection for vehicle recognition using Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques. Additionally, the potential of AI, particularly autoencoders, in mitigating measurement uncertainties for traffic load detection is explored.

Collaborative SHM, which integrates various SHM systems within the scope of bridge digital twins (BDTs), enhances infrastructure resilience and maintenance strategies. However, it faces challenges in integrating distributed sensor networks and requires interdisciplinary collaboration. In this work, various aspects of enhancing collaborative SHM with BDTs are presented. As a pilot project, the Nibelungen Bridge in Worms (NBW), Germany, is introduced. Based on specific stakeholder and project requirements, various SHM systems havebeen installed on this bridge. To address these challenges, goal-oriented solutions have been developed and elaborated. Finally, conclusions and future outlooks are presented.
