The attention of many developed countries has increasingly focused on the security and protection of critical infrastructure. The use of Unmanned Systems (USs) for this purpose has been growing rapidly in recent years, as advances in technology, increased versatility and smaller size, together with the reduced risks and costs associated with removing the need for a pilot or operator on board, have all made these systems more attractive. This book, Monitoring and Protection of Critical Infrastructure by Unmanned Systems, presents 15 papers delivered at the NATO Advanced Training Course (ATC) of the same name hosted in Chisinau, the Republic of Moldova, from 30 May to 5 June 2022. This event w...

Security-Related Advanced Technologies in Critical Infrastructure Protection

This book collects the latest research results on security-related advanced technologies. The chapters contain relevant and interesting topics from numerous research. Data science and artificial intelligence research nowadays one of the most important topics for the industry and the security sectors. The autonomy and counter-autonomy research topic are also very interesting. Autonomous cars have become a part of the common days, but their safe and secure application is not assured. The research results in this field want to support and assure safe and secure autonomous applications in our quotidian life. Also, the safe and secure robotics in the industries and the defence assure a high stand...

ANCRiSST 2019 Procedia

ANCRiSST 2019 Workshop, held in Rome on 18-21 July 2019, manifests a close collaboration between Europe, Asia and the Americas in the field of smart structures and materials. A year after the tragic collapse of the Morandi bridge in Genova and shortly after its demolition, the scientific discussion on novel solutions in structural health monitoring and control from an outstanding international scientific community is the catalyst for future headway in this field. The ANCRiSST 2019 Procedia expresses current progress in smart materials and structures technology and is witness to ever growing international synergies among researchers. Emerging frontiers in automated inspection, sensing and control of civil infrastructure are focussed on. Six sections gather together contributions in smart materials for sensing and actuation, response prediction and evaluation, measurements and health monitoring, structural control, damage detection, mechatronics and automated inspection.
