خلاصه	Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is a process-based engineering methodology used in civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering to continuously assess the condition of structures — bridges, buildings, dams, pipelines, and aircraft — through embedded or attached sensor networks. By acquiring real-time or periodic measurement data and applying signal processing and statistical pattern recognition, SHM aims to detect, locate, classify, and quantify damage before it reaches a critical state, enabling evidence-based maintenance decisions.	Modal analysis is a computational and experimental method for determining the natural frequencies and associated mode shapes of a mechanical structure. By decomposing structural vibration into its fundamental modes (natural oscillation patterns), engineers can predict resonance frequencies, assess dynamic response to external forces, and design structures to avoid problematic vibrations. Developed rigorously by Clough and Penzien in their foundational work on structural dynamics, modal analysis is essential for designing robust mechanical systems.	Statistical reliability analysis models the time-to-failure of components, systems, or products using parametric lifetime distributions fitted to observed or censored failure data. Formalized comprehensively by William Q. Meeker and Luis A. Escobar in their 1998 Wiley monograph, the framework integrates maximum likelihood estimation, censoring mechanisms, and distributional diagnostics to produce probability-of-failure curves, hazard rates, and quantile estimates that support design, warranty, and maintenance decisions.
