Eric Flynn wins "Best Student Paper" Award at ASME 2008 Conference
Ph.D. graduate student Eric Flynn (Dr. Michael Todd, Advisor) won "Best Student Paper" Award at the ASME 2008 Conference on Smart Materials, Adaptive Structures, and Intelligent Systems (SMASIS08), held in Ellicott City, Maryland, October 28-30, 2008. The paper, entitled "Optimal Sensor Placement for Active Sensing," describes a new approach for determining the optimal layout for arranging sensors on a structure in order to make appropriate measurements for detecting and locating damage on that structure. The approach fundamentally employs detection theory, a means to distinguish between a signal and noise, which was adapted from earlier work established in the radar community. The optimal sensor arrangement, found by employing genetic algorithms, is defined as the minimization of either false negatives or false positives (whichever is more important for a given application) observed during the damage detection process. Flynn is a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow, and is leading the effort for the UC San Diego/Los Alamos National Laboratory's Engineering Institute to put together a comprehensive structural health monitoring software package. Congratulations, Eric!
