Experience with Structural Damage Identification of an Experimental Bridge Model

Abstract: The paper is devoted to structural health monitoring using a non-destructive method based on the method of direct stiffness determination combined with the model updating method. The primary aim of the paper is to determine the change in bending and torsional stiffnesses. In the first part of the work it was necessary to prepare a simple experimental scale model of the bridge which was made from two materials – wood and plaster boards. The same bridge model was created in the finite element commercial codes RF… Show more

“…These methods are suitable, e.g., for structural health monitoring (SHM), when repeated tests of the dynamic responses have to be compared and even small variations in results can lead to damage identification. In SHM of bridges it is necessary to know higher derivatives of eigenmodes in order to, e.g., assess stiffness using the direct method (Maeck and De Roeck, 1999a;1999b) or for increasing the speed of iterations (Sokol et al, 2015).…”

“…The FEMU method is also applied to damage detection with neglecting damping of structure in a simple self-developed code. The used version of the code has been customized in comparison to its published version in [10]. The paper is devoted to analysis of input data and their impact on accuracy of damage assessment and analysis of minimum degree of possible damage that can be detect on a numerical model of a steel bar.…”

“…All of the calculations ran in a while-loop cycle. The limit value of the auxiliary error (indicated by LIMIT in accordance with Sokol et al (2015)) is the only condition which determines the calculations in a way that the vector of the calculated displacements corresponds to the desired state of the measured mode-shape, i.e. when the FAULT value is equal to or smaller than LIMIT value.…”
