The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Computer and Network Systems awarded a $505,999 Project Grant titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: CPS: MEDIUM: MUTUALISTIC CYBER-PHYSICAL INTERACTION FOR SELF-ADAPTIVE MULTI-DAMAGE MONITORING OF CIVIL INFRASTRUCTURE" to the University of Illinois, a U.S. state government, 1862 land grant college, and educational institution.
The project aims to develop a Cyber-Physical System (CPS) that enables "mutualistic interaction" between cyber damage prognostics and reconfigurable physical sensing to enhance the ability to predict, reconfigure, and adapt to monitor multiple types of civil infrastructure damage in a cost-effective manner. The CPS includes three integrated components: 1) data-driven deep learning for generalized damage prognostics, 2) signal difference maximization-based reconfigurable sensing, and 3) quality-aware edge cloud computing for efficient damage information extraction. The CPS methods will be tested on bridges and generalized to monitor other civil infrastructure. The project will also contribute to broadening participation in engineering research and education.
