👉 The engineering approach I've chosen focuses on a hybrid model combining advanced materials science with smart sensor integration and machine learning algorithms to create adaptive, self-healing structures. This method leverages high-performance composites for durability and lightweight properties, paired with embedded sensors that continuously monitor structural health in real-time. Machine learning models analyze this data to predict potential failures, optimize maintenance schedules, and autonomously adjust structural parameters for optimal performance. This holistic approach not only enhances the longevity and safety of infrastructure but also reduces maintenance costs and environmental impact by enabling predictive, rather than reactive, management strategies.
