Reliability-based robust design of smart sensing systems for failure diagnostics using piezoelectric materials
Developed a new method for piezoelectric materials based sensing systems design. Developed a quantitative detectability measure to evaluate the sensing performance. Developed a novel detectability analysis approach based on Mahalanobis distance. Considered uncertainties in structure material properties and operating conditions. Employed two engineering case studies to demonstrate the methodology.
