Abstract

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) ensures structure safety, reliability, and durability in many sectors. SHM methods have improved structural evaluation and maintenance efficiency to meet sustainable infrastructure and lower maintenance expenses. This article discusses current SHM achievements, their benefits, and future research in this rapidly growing field. Basic SHM procedures start with manual monitoring and visual inspections. Advanced sensors, data analytics and machine learning algorithms have transformed SHM. Industrial, aerospace, energy and civil infrastructure use SHM. SHM optimises processes and quality control, improving product reliability and waste reduction. It covers smart materials, low-cost, lightweight, energy-efficient sensor technologies and advanced data analytics for better decision-making. Advanced sensors, data analytics and machine learning algorithms enable real-time monitoring, anomaly detection and preventative maintenance using SHM. Advanced sensor technologies and SHM integration with cutting-edge technology will shape this industry and improve SHM and maintenance.
