Multimodal Approach for Rationalization and Quantification of Structural Disorder in Transition Al2O3
نویسندگان
چکیده
Transition aluminas form a basis of important catalytic and catalytic support materials due to their unique surface acidity, high temperature structural stability, and their viability for synthesis as high surface area materials [1]. The origin of transition aluminas attractive properties has been extensively studied in the past 50+ years, but despite this effort, there are number of structural, electronic and surface properties that remain poorly understood. The poor understanding stems mostly from the inadequate crystallographic description of transition alumina polymorphs of -Al2O3, -Al2O3, -Al2O3 that evolve as a continuum of metastable structures [2,3].

This paper presents a new model updating approach for structural damage localization and quantification. Based on the Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC), a new damage-sensitive cost function is introduced by employing the main diagonal and anti-diagonal members of the calculated Generalized Flexibility Matrix (GFM) for the monitored structure and its analytical model. Then, ...
