Adaptive finite element analysis for damage detection of non-uniform Euler–Bernoulli beams with multiple cracks based on natural frequencies

Abstract: In this study, an adaptive finite element method (FEM) is developed for structural eigenproblems of cracked Euler-Bernoulli beams via the superconvergent patch recovery displacement technique. This research comprises the numerical algorithm and experimental results for free vibration problems (forward eigenproblems) and damage detection problems (inverse eigenproblems). Design/methodology/approach The weakened properties analogy is used to describe cracks in this model. The adaptive strategy proposed in this p… Show more

“…The traditional numerical models, such as those that employ the finite element method (FEM) have various limitations, as the meshes cannot be changed easily after model creation and require further mesh refinements 25 ; therefore, the adaptive finite element method (AFEM) was developed for effective mesh refinement. 26 The extended finite element method (XFEM) was developed to simulate multiple fractures, but the accuracy of the results still depends on the quality of mesh generation. 27 Other numerical techniques that consider the initiation and propagation of fractures are being developed, such as bonded particle models (BMPs), 28 the discontinuous deformation analysis (DDA) method, 29 and the boundary element method (BEM).…”

“…Although the above criteria are the ultimate aims, they cannot be used as the stop criteria for a computing procedure because exact solutions are not usually available. On the current mesh, the superconvergent solution u * k , which possesses higher accuracy than conventional FE solution, can be used instead of the exact solution to estimate the accuracy of the eigenfunction in energy norm (Wang et al, 2018;Zienkiewicz, 2006). In this case, the superconvergent solution of the eigenvalue is obtained through computing the Rayleigh quotient (Wilkinson, 1965;Wilkinson and Reinsch, 1971) by using the superconvergent solutions of the eigenfunction.…”

“…The superconvergent patch recovery displacement method was developed (Wang et al, 2018;Wiberg et al, 1999a;Wiberg et al, 1999b) to acquire the superconvergent displacements of the FE solutions in static and dynamic problems. The displacements provided by this method can be applied to eigenfunctions.…”
