Parkar: Smart Dams: Beyond Visual, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Visual inspections have long been the cornerstone of dam safety, but the future lies in "smart dams." These go beyond surface checks, employing a network of sensors embedded within the dam itself. These sensors monitor vital signs like pressure, movement, and temperature, providing a real-time picture of the dam's health.
The data collected by these sensors can be analyzed using machine learning algorithms. This allows for early detection of potential problems, like cracks or weaknesses, long before they become visible to the human eye. Predictive maintenance becomes possible, allowing for targeted repairs before issues escalate.
Smart dams also harness the power of automation. Automated drone inspections can access hard-to-reach areas, while real-time data feeds enable remote monitoring and quicker response times. This not only improves safety but allows for more efficient management of dam operations.
By moving beyond the limitations of visual inspections, smart dams offer a proactive approach to dam safety, safeguarding communities and ensuring these vital structures continue to serve their purpose for generations to come
