Abstract

At present, there are no approaches to accurate monitoring of ice cracks which seriously affect the transportation. We develop an automatic detecting apparatus and study its feasibility and monitoring principles. It is demonstrated that such detecting apparatus is able to monitor the change in ice crack width automatically and provide reliab le and stable data through test results. Although this apparatus requires further improvements to better adapt to harsh the environment, t the testing results showed that the data were reliable and stable for the analysis of icing behavior..
