Congratulations to Hassan for Winning the EWSHM Young Professionals Challenge

02 August, 2026

Our MCEM Postdoctoral Fellow, Dr. Hassan Mahmoud won an award with his presentation "Hybrid Event-Driven Structural Health Monitoring (EDSHM) Node with Ultra-Low-Power Adaptive Triggering"

  • Developed for Challenge 3 of the EWSHM Young Professionals Challenge, addressing the energy autonomy of wireless structural health monitoring nodes.
  • Using the ultra-low-power ALTO development board, the project focused on reducing energy wasted during inactive waiting periods.
  • Our solution combines event-driven monitoring with adaptive ultra-low-power triggering to extend node autonomy and support scalable SHM deployment.
  • The project was conducted through a collaboration between our laboratory and the Information Science Lab (ISL).

Team: Hassan Mahmoud, Omar Khalifa, Aldyandra Hami Senso
Supervisors: Prof. Tareq Al-Naffouri and Prof. Gilles Lubineau

Congratulations, Hassan, on this well-deserved recognition.
