2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What type of sensor would you use to measure a constant load on a beam?
Think about data stability.
Which sensors would be critical in monitoring seismic activity?
Consider sensors that react to movement.
What type of sensor captures time-varying signals?
Think about motion and change.
Are static sensors used for monitoring changes over time?
Remember the key characteristic of static sensors.
A civil engineer is tasked with monitoring a newly constructed bridge. Explain the types of sensors they should use and justify your choice based on the bridge's expected conditions.
Consider the bridge's operational environment and safety requirements.
You have raw data from both static and dynamic sensors without any signal conditioning. Discuss how this might affect data analysis and potential engineering decisions.
Think about the role of signal clarity in structural safety.
