The paper reviews the recent applications of piezoelectric materials in structuralhealth monitoring and repair conducted by the authors. First, commonly used piezoelectricmaterials in structural health monitoring and structure repair are introduced. The analysisof plain piezoelectric sensors and actuators and interdigital transducer and theirapplications in beam, plate and pipe structures for damage detection are reviewed in detail.Second, an overview is presented on the recent advances in the ...
