Structural health monitoring by dc electrical resistance measurement is reviewed. The technique is valuable for evaluating composites and joints, provided that the materials involved are not all electrically insulating. The measurement pertains to either the volume electrical resistivity of a bulk material or the contact resistivity of an interface, and it can be performed in real time during loading or heating.
