Structural failure in industrial and infrastructure systems is a major cause of concern for governments and businesses. Dr. Gaurav Pandey's work describes a revolutionary approach to design robust structures which can warn about their impending failure. Dr. Gaurav Pandey presents his solution to a very difficult problem - of monitoring micro-cracks in composite structures. This high impact and highly cited research has generated interest from both the academia and the industry (aerospace, wind, energy and railway transportation). Smart composites, as described in the present work have the...
