Book Investigation of Time Series Analysis Based Damage Detection Methodologies for Structural Health Monitoring

Download or read book Investigation of Time Series Analysis Based Damage Detection Methodologies for Structural Health Monitoring written by Qipei Mei and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is widely accepted as a valuable tool for monitoring, inspecting and maintaining infrastructure systems. Damage detection is one of the most critical components of SHM to identify the existence, location and severity of damage so that effective preventive actions can be taken to improve the condition of the structure. In this study, time series analysis based damage detection methods using output-only vibration data are investigated for global condition assessment of structures. The main body of the thesis falls into two key parts. In the first part, a novel damage detection method based on Auto-Regressive models with eXogenous (ARX models) and sensor clustering is proposed. Two different Damage Features (DFs) based on the difference of fit ratios and ARX model coefficients are considered in this part. Applying this method to experimental data from a steel grid type structure and a 4-span bridge type structure, it is demonstrated that the existence, location and severity could be successfully assessed by both two DFs for most of the cases. In the second part, an improved version of the previous method is developed to separate the changes in stiffness and mass of the structure using output only data. In order to verify this approach, it is first applied to a 4-DOF mass spring system and then to the shear type IASC-ASCE numerical benchmark problem. It is demonstrated that the approach can not only accurately determine the location and severity of the damage, but also distinguish between changes in stiffness and mass. This study constitutes the first approach of its kind which can distinguish between change of stiffness and mass by using output only vibration data. At the end of the thesis, the limitations of current methods, recommendations, and future work are also addressed.

Book Investigation of Damage Detection Methodologies for Structural Health Monitoring

Download or read book Investigation of Damage Detection Methodologies for Structural Health Monitoring written by Mustafa Gül and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is employed to track and evaluate damage and deterioration during regular operation as well as after extreme events for aerospace, mechanical and civil structures. A complete SHM system incorporates performance metrics, sensing, signal processing, data analysis, transmission and management for decision-making purposes. Damage detection in the context of SHM can be successful by employing a collection of robust and practical damage detection methodologies that can be used to identify, locate and quantify damage or, in general terms, changes in observable behavior. In this study, different damage detection methods are investigated for global condition assessment of structures. First, different parametric and non-parametric approaches are re-visited and further improved for damage detection using vibration data. Modal flexibility, modal curvature and un-scaled flexibility based on the dynamic properties that are obtained using Complex Mode Indicator Function (CMIF) are used as parametric damage features. Second, statistical pattern recognition approaches using time series modeling in conjunction with outlier detection are investigated as a non-parametric damage detection technique. Third, a novel methodology using ARX models (Auto-Regressive models with eXogenous output) is proposed for damage identification. By using this new methodology, it is shown that damage can be detected, located and quantified without the need of external loading information. Next, laboratory studies are conducted on different test structures with a number of different damage scenarios for the evaluation of the techniques in a comparative fashion. Finally, application of the methodologies to real life data is also presented along with the capabilities and limitations of each approach in light of analysis results of the laboratory and real life data.

Book Structural Health Monitoring for Damage Detection Using Wired and Wireless Sensor Clusters

Download or read book Structural Health Monitoring for Damage Detection Using Wired and Wireless Sensor Clusters written by Thomas Terrell and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sensing and analysis of a structure for the purpose of detecting, tracking, and evaluating damage and deterioration, during both regular operation and extreme events, is referred to as Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). SHM is a multi-disciplinary field, with a complete system incorporating sensing technology, hardware, signal processing, networking, data analysis, and management for interpretation and decision making. However, many of these processes and subsequent integration into a practical SHM framework are in need of development. In this study, various components of an SHM system will be investigated. A particular focus is paid to the investigation of a previously developed damage detection methodology for global condition assessment of a laboratory structure with a decking system. First, a review of some of the current SHM applications, which relate to a current UCF Structures SHM study monitoring a full-scale movable bridge, will be presented in conjunction with a summary of the critical components for that project. Studies for structural condition assessment of a 4-span bridge-type steel structure using the SHM data collected from laboratory based experiments will then be presented. For this purpose, a time series analysis method using ARX models (Auto-Regressive models with eXogeneous input) for damage detection with free response vibration data will be expanded upon using both wired and wireless acceleration data. Analysis using wireless accelerometers will implement a sensor roaming technique to maintain a dense sensor field, yet require fewer sensors. Using both data types, this ARX based time series analysis method was shown to be effective for damage detection and localization for this relatively complex laboratory structure. Finally, application of the proposed methodologies on a real-life structure will be discussed, along with conclusions and recommendations for future work.

Book Data Driven Methodologies for Structural Damage Detection Based on Machine Learning Applications

Download or read book Data Driven Methodologies for Structural Damage Detection Based on Machine Learning Applications written by Jaime Vitola and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural health monitoring (SHM) is an important research area, which interest is the damage identification process. Different information about the state of the structure can be obtained in the process, among them, detection, localization and classification of damages are mainly studied in order to avoid unnecessary maintenance procedures in civilian and military structures in several applications. To carry out SHM in practice, two different approaches are used, the first is based on modelling which requires to build a very detailed model of the structure, while the second is by means of data-driven approaches which use information collected from the structure under different structural states and perform an analysis by means of data analysis . For the latter, statistical analysis and pattern recognition have demonstrated its effectiveness in the damage identification process because real information is obtained from the structure through sensors installed permanently to the observed object allowing a real-time monitoring. This chapter describes a damage detection and classification methodology, which makes use of a piezoelectric active system which works in several actuation phases and that is attached to the structure under evaluation, principal component analysis, and machine learning algorithms working as a pattern recognition methodology. In the chapter, the description of the developed approach and the results when it is tested in one aluminum plate are also included.
