IDENTIFICATION OF THE IMPACT POSITION IN A REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURE BASED ON THE ANALYSIS OF THE RESPONSE OF VIBRATION SENSORS

The article presents the results of an experiment to study vibration response a large-scale reinforced concrete model structure impulse load. load was series impacts along normal surface element and applied all main structural ele-ments (columns, crossbars floor slabs). recorded by system sensors-accelerometers distributed over elements synchronized with accelerometer mounted on striker. measurements acceleration vibrograms were saved as digital files. An array entire complex sensors in test made up portrait structure. As result processing this information, data obtained propa-gation time signal from each source registra-tion (basic responses).Key words: Impact localization, accelerometer, used solve problem determining location arbi-trary impact To do this, sensor during arbitrary compared base responses. comparison basis calculation pair correlation coefficients. resulting spatial distribution coefficients it possible identify position shock application.
