Book Dynamic Methods for Damage Detection in Structures

Download or read book Dynamic Methods for Damage Detection in Structures written by Antonino Morassi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-11 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non destructive testing aimed at monitoring, structural identification and di- nostics is of strategic importance in many branches of civil and mechanical - gineering. This type of tests is widely practiced and directly affects topical issues regarding the design of new buildings and the repair and monitoring of existing ones. The load bearing capacity of a structure can now be evaluated using well established mechanical modelling methods aided by computing facilities of great capability. However, to ensure reliable results, models must be calibrated with - curate information on the characteristics of materials and structural components. To this end, non destructive techniques are a useful tool from several points of view. Particularly, by measuring structural response, they provide guidance on the validation of structural descriptions or of the mathematical models of material behaviour. Diagnostic engineering is a crucial area for the application of non destructive testing methods. Repeated tests over time can indicate the emergence of p- sible damage occurring during the structure's lifetime and provide quantitative estimates of the level of residual safety.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by W. H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing. house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 25 (thesis year 1980) a total of 10,308 theses titles from 27 Canadian and 214 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 25 reports theses submitted in 1980, on occasion, certain universities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Structural Health Assessment of Moment Resisting Steel Frames Subjected to Dynamic Loads

Download or read book Structural Health Assessment of Moment Resisting Steel Frames Subjected to Dynamic Loads written by Ayman M. Eldemerdash Taha Abdelaal and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main objective of structural health monitoring (SHM), especially structural damage identification technique, is to identify the state of the structure and to detect local damages after a major event, such as strong earthquake. The ability to identify the state of the structure, including local damages, immediately after a severe event, allows for post-event rapid assessment, emergency responses, rescues and repair, in order to ensure safe operations of such structures. In the recent years, intensive research has been conducted for detecting structural damages based on vibration data measured from sensors. To date, practical and effective damage identification techniques based on the finite-element modeling remain to be developed for large-scale linear and nonlinear structures, in particular moment resisting steel frame structures. In response, this study proposed the utilization of wireless structural health assessment protocol for damage detection. The focus of this study is on damage detection of moment resisting steel frame (MRF) structures. The proposed methodology is based on measuring dynamic signals of the structure directly in conjunction with structural modeling and numerical simulation tools. In addition to damage identification, analytical fragility curves were developed in order to apply less complex technique of tagging criteria (green, yellow, and green) for the MRF structure after severe event. For the purpose of studying earthquake response and vibration-based seismic damage detection of MRF structures, two scaled-down moment resisting steel frames models were analytically evaluated. The first model was in the form of a single-bay, three-story steel frame representing a rigid frame and the other was a single-bay, eight-story steel frame representing a flexible frame. The behaviors of the two MRFs were numerically simulated using two different finite element codes. The proposed protocol was validated by performing a series of shake table tests that were conducted on the 3-story steel building structure (rigid frame). In order to detect damage automatically via a wireless sensing system, a Frequency Domain Decomposition (FDD) algorithm, Random Decrement (RD) technique, and an automatic Peak-Peaking (PP) algorithm for defining vibration properties of the structure were imbedded into the wireless sensing units. Using Genetic Algorithm (GA) the proposed system successfully able to identify local damages by minimizing the objective function between the dynamic parameters measured experimentally and the ones predicted analytically from the finite element models. Also, the outcome of this research provided a simplified methodology to successfully develop fragility curves for MRF showing different levels of performance and also showing the importance of using panel zone in MRF connections. The results of this study also showed a good agreement between the dynamic parameters measured using wireless sensor network and the dynamic parameters measured by tethered sensors.
