About

Seunghee Park is a structural engineering researcher whose work sits at the intersection of nondestructive evaluation (NDE), smart sensing technologies, and infrastructure monitoring. His research has focused primarily on developing advanced inspection systems for steel cables in long-span bridges — critical structural components in cable-stayed and suspension bridge systems where undetected damage can lead to catastrophic failure. Park's most significant contributions center on Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL)-based sensing techniques, which he has pioneered as a practical tool for detecting local faults, cross-sectional losses, and fractures in bridge cables. A hallmark of his work is the integration of these NDE systems with cable-climbing robots, enabling automated, real-time condition monitoring that reduces the need for costly and dangerous manual inspections. His 2014 paper on MFL-based cable NDE has garnered 56 citations, establishing it as a key reference in structural health monitoring literature. Beyond MFL methods, Park has also explored elasto-magnetic sensing technologies for localized damage evaluation. His body of work, spanning multiple publications from 2012 onward, reflects a sustained commitment to making bridge infrastructure safer through intelligent, sensor-driven inspection strategies — research of growing relevance as aging infrastructure worldwide demands smarter maintenance solutions.
