Truss Structure Integrity Identification Using PZT Sensor-Actuator

TL;DR: In this article, a frequency domain impedance-signature-based technique for health monitoring of an assembled truss structure is presented. But unlike conventional modal analysis approaches, the technique uses piezoceramic (PZT) elements as integrated sensor-actuators for acquisition of signature pattern of the truss.
