Reinforced Concrete Diagnosis funded through the NSF funded Engineering Research Center for Subsurface Sensing and Imaging (CenSSIS) this projects develops and uses an integrated modeling environment that will support multiple modality data fusion. Nondestructive subsurface sensors use waves to probe media. These waves propogate through the subsurface and reflect or refract as they reach changes in the subsurface. The research objective is to develop model-based assessment strategies that are generally applicable to cluttered and inhomogeneous media (such as soils). Modalities of interest are ground penetrating radar with possible extension to electrical impedance and seismic testing. The proposed research seeks to quantifiably detect subsurface defects leading to more informative diagnostic information, and ultimately significant rehabilitation cost savings.
