Abstract: In this work, we develop electrical impedance tomography (EIT) imaging to non-destructive testing (NDT) of concrete structures. A special focus is in detection of cracking, which is one of the most significant factors contributing the premature deterioration of concrete and shortening service lives of structures. New computational methods for the crack detection are developed in Bayesian inversion framework. The feasibility of EIT for NDT of concrete is tested with various experiments.
