Book System Identification for Structural Health Monitoring

Download or read book System Identification for Structural Health Monitoring written by Izuru Takewaki and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: System identification (SI) techniques are important in reducing gaps between the constructed structural systems and their structural design models and in health monitoring for damage detection. Modal-parameter SI and physical-parameter SI are two major branches in SI.Special character of this book: (1) The physical-parameter SI method explained in this book requires only two accelerometers for measurement of records. Furthermore only a simple manipulation of Fourier transformation is required.(2) The stiffness and damping can be identified simultaneously.(3) The modal parameter SI can supplement or support the result by the physical-parameter SI method.(4) In place of usual low-pass or high-pass filter techniques, a novel noise-bias compensation method is explained. Because the noise itself is not known in many cases, the identification and elimination of noise is a tough problem.(5) A new technique of system identification is explained in the case where an inner vibration source exists.(6) The accuracy of the explained SI methods is examined by the actual recorded data.(7) MATLAB codes are available.This book is intended for Structural Engineers, Mechanical Engineers, Researchers, Graduate and undergraduate students.

Book Applications of Nonlinear System Identification to Structural Health Monitoring

Download or read book Applications of Nonlinear System Identification to Structural Health Monitoring written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The process of implementing a damage detection strategy for aerospace, civil and mechanical engineering infrastructure is referred to as structural health monitoring (SHM). In many cases damage causes a structure that initially behaves in a predominantly linear manner to exhibit nonlinear response when subject to its operating environment. The formation of cracks that subsequently open and close under operating loads is an example of such damage. The damage detection process can be significantly enhanced if one takes advantage of these nonlinear effects when extracting damage-sensitive features from measured data. This paper will provide an overview of nonlinear system identification techniques that are used for the feature extraction process. Specifically, three general approaches that apply nonlinear system identification techniques to the damage detection process are discussed. The first two approaches attempt to quantify the deviation of the system from its initial linear characteristics that is a direct result of damage. The third approach is to extract features from the data that are directly related to the specific nonlinearity associated with the damaged condition. To conclude this discussion, a summary of outstanding issues associated with the application of nonlinear system identification techniques to the SHM problem is presented.

Download or read book Structural Health Monitoring written by Daniel Balageas and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-01-05 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is organized around the various sensing techniques used to achieve structural health monitoring. Its main focus is on sensors, signal and data reduction methods and inverse techniques, which enable the identification of the physical parameters, affected by the presence of the damage, on which a diagnostic is established. Structural Health Monitoring is not oriented by the type of applications or linked to special classes of problems, but rather presents broader families of techniques: vibration and modal analysis; optical fibre sensing; acousto-ultrasonics, using piezoelectric transducers; and electric and electromagnetic techniques. Each chapter has been written by specialists in the subject area who possess a broad range of practical experience. The book will be accessible to students and those new to the field, but the exhaustive overview of present research and development, as well as the numerous references provided, also make it required reading for experienced researchers and engineers.

Book Structural System Identification

Download or read book Structural System Identification written by Eleni N. Chatzi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-12-15 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our built infrastructure comprises an evolving organism, which requires monitoring and diagnostics throughout its service life in order to ensure a reliable and safe operation. To this end, Structural Identification (St-Id) exploits sensory feedback in order to reveal an abundance of information on the system throughout its life-cycle. The decoding of this information into an adequate representation of the system, may in turn serve as a tool for life-cycle assessment, maintenance planning and early prognosis and warning. This graduate level textbook and professional guide provides both an overview of well-established structural identification methods, as well as an introduction to selected advanced state-of-the-art tools, which are particularly suited for implementation in a practical setting. Both parametric and non-parametric methods are discussed, formulated in the time or frequency domain. The challenging issues of state and parameter identification are addressed. Moreover, special topics pertaining to nonlinear and non-stationarity behavior are further visited. The presented methods are demonstrated using MATLAB, with sample code provided for the featured examples.

Book Structural Health Monitoring and Detection of Progressive and Existing Damage Using Artificial Neural Networks Based System Identification

Download or read book Structural Health Monitoring and Detection of Progressive and Existing Damage Using Artificial Neural Networks Based System Identification written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, the growing number of civil and aerospace structures has accelerated the development of damage detection and health monitoring approaches. Many are based upon non-destructive and non-invasive sensing and analysis of structural characteristics, and most use structural response information to identify the existence, location, and time of damage. Model based techniques such as parametric and non-parametric system identification seek to identify changes in the parameters of a dynamic structural model. Restoring forces in real structures can exhibit highly non-linear characteristics, thus accurate non-linear system identification is critical. Parametric system identification approaches are commonly used, but these require a priori assumptions about restoring force characteristics. Non-parametric approaches do not require such information, but they typically lack direct associations between the model and the structural dynamics, providing limited utility for accurate health monitoring and damage detection. This dissertation presents a novel 'Intelligent Parameter Varying' (IPV) health monitoring and damage detection technique that accurately detects the existence, location, and time of damage occurrence without any assumptions about the constitutive nature of structural non-linearities. This technique combines the advantages of parametric techniques with the non-parametric capabilities of artificial neural networks by incorporating artificial neural networks into a traditional parametric model. This hybrid approach benefits from the effectiveness of traditional modeling approaches and from the adaptation and learning capabilities of artificial neural networks. The generality of this IPV approach makes it suitable to a wide range of dynamic systems, including those with non-linear and time-varying characteristics. This IPV technique is demonstrated using a lumped-mass structural model with an embedded array of artificial neural networks. These networks i.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural Health Management (SHM) is a key part of the Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) approach, whose main aim is to develop an integrated end-to-end system to monitor the overall health of a vehicle. Structural Health Monitoring: Current State and Future Trends, edited by Professor Alessandro Pegoretti, a scholar from the University of Trento in Italy, introduces the reader to recent developments involved in health monitoring of aerospace structures. The chapters, represented by seminal SAE International technical papers, offer an overview of the most recent advances in the sensing techniques for SHM, analysis of SHM data and its applications in aerospace. SHM can allow a continuous in-service inspection of the vehicle, thus reducing the cost associated with manual inspection at predetermined time intervals. The availability of reliable information on the loading conditions and health state of structural components by the implementation of SHM can be beneficial for several reasons, such as: • To prevent catastrophic failure • To reduce the number and the cost of unnecessary inspections • To improve the design of structural parts, with a reduction of the weight and the costs of overdesigned components Structural Health Monitoring: Current State and Future Trends offers a unique perspective on this field.
