Editors Epaarachchi and Kahandawa present readers with a collection of academic and professional perspectives on contemporary and emerging advances in structural health monitoring, smart materials, and smart structures. The fourteen selections that make up the main body of the text are devoted to scalable sensing membrane for structural health monitoring mesosystems, the Internet of things for structural health monitoring, laser ultrasonic imaging for damage visualization and damage accumulation evaluation, and a great many other related topics. Jayantha Ananda Epaarachchi is a faculty member of the University of South Queensland in Australia. Gayan Chanaka Kahandawa is a faculty member of the Federation University Australia.

Increased use of composite materials in engineering fields such as aerospace, energy, and civil infrastructures has led to concerns over composite material failures, leading to a need for smart/intelligent composite structures that are able to self-diagnose and self-heal. Advances in applied research in structural health management and smart composite structure fields are illustrated along with long-term health of composite structures, principles of health monitoring, damage evaluation, data analysis, and decision-making algorithms, implementation of health monitoring systems, present and future challenges.
