Abstract

A truss is a framework made up of beams and joints, creating a rigid structure, usually arranged in a triangular formation, that supports a load and is the building block of many structures. Truss structures, are essential in engineering for spanning long distances efficiently and can be monitored with high accuracy, using the concept of local multiset dimension (LMD) in graph theory. LMD determines the minimum reference points needed to uniquely locate adjacent vertices in a graph. Applying this concept to truss structures, increases the efficiency of structural monitoring by deducing the optimal placement for sensors, and real-time monitoring, improving the safety, reliability, and performance of truss systems across diverse engineering applications. The local multiset basis of triangular snake graphs is discussed in this paper, and their local multiset dimension is determined. As an application, LMD is obtained for some common truss structures.
