Abstract: | Essentially, the corrosion process of the steel bar in reinforcing concrete structures is a series of electrochemical reactions. Therefore, the released energy during these reactions provides the opportunities to identify the corrosion status and power the wireless corrosion monitoring sensors. Furthermore, the recognition of the corrosion status has been realized with active monitoring techniques (AMTs) and passive monitoring techniques (PMTs). Additionally, the sensor mote platform that harvests the corrosion energy has been designed for corrosion monitoring, and then how to network these sensors to remotely access the corrosion data has been discussed. The preliminary experiment has been conducted to validate the micro corrosion energy. |
