Simulating Gpr For Diagnosis Of Civil Infrastructure, Laura Carey, Kimberly Belli, Carey M. Rappaport, Sara J. Wadia-Fascetti Apr 2012

Simulating Gpr For Diagnosis Of Civil Infrastructure, Laura Carey, Kimberly Belli, Carey M. Rappaport, Sara J. Wadia-Fascetti

Sara J. Wadia-Fascetti

At the present, a large proportion of our nation's bridges and roadways are falling into disrepair. About 27.5% of U.S. bridges are structurally deficient or functionally obsolete (ASCE, 2001, 2003). Nondestructive testing methods, such as GPR, are becoming more and more important in diagnosing the condition of such concrete structures. GPR is a high-resolution electromagnetic technique used to investigate the immediate subsurface of the earth, building materials, roads, and bridges. This poster shows my work in GPR modeling during a summer undergraduate experience through CenSSIS. A specialized MATLAB toolbox designed by Kim Belli created all data presented here. The use …
