Abstract
To realize remote structural health monitoring for heavy lifting appliances, e.g., 500t gantry cranes, technologies of RFID wireless sensor network, LabVIEW virtual instrument and health diagnosis expert system are empoyed to establish an integrated system. The system is divided into three layers in logic structures: the data acquisition layer, the network communication layer and the system service layer. In the data acquisition layer, RFID sensors, RFID readers are deployed to collect the structural strains, vibrations, noises and other motion parameters for each monitored object. In the system service layer, monitoring and analysis services and a health diagnose expert system are employed to carry out real-time monitoring and safety evaluation tasks. The data acquisition points connect the centre platform through LabVIEW communication tunnels. As the result of a comparison with the common optics sensing system, the proposed system has merits of wireless, easy to deploy, passive and save energy.
