This review provides an overview of the current robotic systems used in structural health monitoring (SHM) of bridges, and explores the development trends of multimodal robots and soft robotics. It highlights the potential of integrating various Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) tools with robotic systems for performing multiple inspection tasks, and emphasizes the advantages of lightweight and adaptable soft robots in special/space-confined environments.
The application of the cutting-edge technologies of robotics and computer science to structural health monitoring (SHM) of bridges have gained much attention. This review describes existing robotic systems in three areas: (1) rigid robotic systems, such as mobile robots, wall-climbing robots, cable-climbing robots, and flying drones, for the inspection of surface/subsurface defects; (2) mobile robots, climbing robots and flying drones for dynamic response (e.g., accelerations, displacements) measurement, modal identification, and cable tension force estimation; (3) multimodal rigid robots and soft wall-climbing robots with SHM potential. The development of multimodal robotic systems, such as flying and perching drones, hybrid terrestrial-aquatic robots, hybrid aerial-aquatic robots, and hybrid flying and walking robots, have great potential for performing multiple inspection tasks when various Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) tools are integrated with those robotic systems. Another trend is to design soft robotics with smart materials for inspection tasks in some special/space-confined environment because of the advantages of lightweight, high adaptability, and less requirement for electric motors compared with rigid robotics. This comprehensive literature review is intended to provide guidelines for choosing the appropriate robotic platform for defect inspection or vibration measurement of bridges and other types of civil infrastructure. It also can give some insights into the development of versatile robots for SHM applications.
