Smart Sensing Technologies for Structural Health Monitoring of Civil Engineering Structures (2010, methodology): “[54] studied the influence of environmental conditions, temperature and thickness of the bonding layer between PZT patches and aluminum plate on the repeatability of electrical admittance signatures.”
Application of Electromechanical Impedance Technique for Engineering Structures: Review and Future Issues (2010, unknown): “It should also be kept away from atmospheric influences (like humidity, moisture, and temperature) (Yang et al., 2008a,b), acidic/alkaline attacks (due to rain or sea water exposures), and electrical or magnetic zone (Lin et al., 1988).”
A Review of the Piezoelectric Electromechanical Impedance Based Structural Health Monitoring Technique for Engineering Structures (2018, background): “[4] investigated the signature repeatability of PZT transducers both indoor and outdoor up to 15 months, and found that silicone rubber protection over the PZT resulted in RMSD values that were lower than unprotected PZTs (Figure 5).”
