Road Surface Defect Condition Monitoring using Smartphones
Road surface deteriorates gradually over a long period of time due to various natural and artificial causes, impairing not only the comfort of users and road safety, but also transportation economic efficiency. Technically, road surface defects (e.g., potholes and cracks) may cause vehicles bumping. The induced-vibration can then be captured and measured by accelerometer and gyroscope sensors embedded in the smartphone.

In this project, we envisage that a smartphone equipped with accelerometer, gyroscope and GPS sensors can be used to collect information about road surface condition on a daily basis, instead of using specialized equipment for road survey on a multi-annual basis. Data analysis algorithms will be applied to the collected data to identify road surface deterioration and the detected defects will be marked on Google Map. Furthermore, a predictive model will be constructed to predict road surface deterioration on the certain vulnerable road segments, aiming to optimize road infrastructure maintenance and minimize road safety & serviceability risk.

Supervisors:
Dr. Dapeng Dong, Computer Science, Maynooth University
Dr. Zili Li, Civil Engineering, University College Cork

If interested, please feel free to send your CV to
Dapeng.Dong@mu.ie and Zili.li@ucc.ie

Salary: 18.5k euros per annum for 4 years; tuition fee is fully covered.

Eligibility
Candidates should at least hold a bachelor degree in Computer Science or Civil / Transportation engineering, or will obtain one before July 2022. Candidates with a master degree in civil engineering or computer science are encouraged to apply. In addition, English certificate (e.g. IELTS / TOEFL) and international research experiences are preferred. Early application is highly recommended.
