In this lecture the author presents the vision of sustainability via intelligent infrastructure. This vision encompasses two different areas of smart structures and intelligent transportation systems. Multidisciplinary methodologies and computational models are presented for health monitoring and non linear vibration control of smart structures subjected to extreme dynamic loading due to winds and earthquakes and automated detection of incidents in intelligent freeways. They are based on adroit integration of advanced signal processing techniques such as wavelets, nonlinear science/chaos theory, and computational intelligence techniques such as neurocomputing, evolutionary computing, and fuzzy logic.
Hojjat Adeli received his Ph.D. from Stanford University in 1976. He is Professor of Civil, Environmental, and Geodetic Engineering, Biomedical Informatics, Biomedical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Neuroscience, and Neurology at The Ohio State University. He has authored 15 books. He is the Founder and Editor-in-Chief of international research journals Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure and Integrated Computer-Aided Engineering, and the Editor-in-Chief of International Journal of Neural Systems. In 2005, he was elected Distinguished Member, ASCE: "for wide-ranging, exceptional, and pioneering contributions to computing in civil engineering and extraordinary leadership in advancing the use of computing and information technologies in many engineering disciplines throughout the world." In 2010 he was profiled as an Engineering Legend in the ASCE journal of Leadership and Management in Engineering, and Wiley-established the Hojjat Adeli Award for Innovation in Computing. In 2011 World Scientific established the Hojjat Adeli Award for Outstanding Contributions in Neural Systems. He is a Fellow of IEEE, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, American Neurological Society, and American Institute of Medical and Biomedical Engineering. Amoug his numerous awards are a special medal from Polish Neural Network Society, the Eduardo Renato Caianiello Award for Excellence in Scientific Research from the Italian society of Neural Networks, the Omar Khayyam Research Excellence Award from Scientia Iranica, an Honorary Doctorate from Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, and corresponding member of the Spanish royal Engineering Society.
