Vibration based structural health monitoring of a compos- ite plate with stiffeners
نویسندگان
چکیده
A vibration based damage identification algorithm is implemented to assess the damage of a thin–walled composite structure. The structure analysed is a skin with stiffeners, as frequently applied in aircraft components. Both experimental and numerical studies on a single composite skin–stiffener structure showed that the modal strain energy damage index (MSE–DI) algorithm is a suitable method for the detection and localization of a delamination of the stiffener from the skin. A recent study on a strip with a single stiffener and an artificial delamination is extended to a study on a plate with two stiffeners and an impact induced delamination damage.

Vibration based Structural Health Monitoring of a Composite Plate Structure with Multiple Stiffeners
A vibration based damage identification method is investigated experimentally. The dynamic response of an intact and a locally damaged 16–layer unidirectional carbon fibre PEKK reinforced plate structure with two stiffener sections is considered. A forced–vibration set–up, including a laser vibrometer system, is employed to measure the dynamic behaviour. The feasibility of the two–dimensional M...
متن کاملHealth Monitoring of Welded Steel Pipes by Vibration Analysis
In the present work, structure health monitoring (SHM) of welded steel pipes was used to diagnosis their state via vibration based damage detection techniques. The dynamic quantities such as Frequency Response Functions (FRFs), mode shapes and modal parameters from structural vibration to detect damage were measured, set on linear averaging mode, with a maximum frequency of analysis of 3.2 kHz....
متن کاملDesign Requirements for Plate Girders with Bolted Transverse Stiffeners
The web of plate girders in bridges are usually reinforced by welded transverse stiffeners in order to improve their shear capacity.Due to problems associated with field welding and fatigue, welded stiffeners are not suitable for retrofitting existing bridges. Bolted stiffeners are a practical alternative for strengthening girders that are expected to experience shear stress in excess of their ...

متن کاملNumerical Analysis of Cyclic Behavior of Beam-To-Column Bolted Connections in Steel Frames
This article considers the seismic behavior of beam-to-column joints in steel frames for different bolt arrangements by using of finite element modeling. As the most important beam-to-column joint type, the beam-to-column joints with end-plate is chosen for the analysis. Four different specimens have been analyzed. These models had some differences such as bolt arrangement and the presence or a...
