Genetic Algorithm-based Approach for Bayesian Damage Identification Using Spectral Density Analysis in Beam-like Structures
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper, which is a part of an ongoing research study, describes a Genetic Algorithm-based approach towards a global damage identification framework for the continuous/periodic monitoring of civil structures. In order to localise and estimate the severity of damage regions, a one stage model-based Bayesian probabilistic damage detection approach is proposed. The method is based on response power spectral density of the structure which enjoys the advantage of broadband frequency information and can be used for input-output as well as output-only damage identification studies. The suitability of the proposed method is investigated for an error-free numerical model with noise-free response data sets in a beam-like structure with different severity of damage. The results obtained indicate that the Genetic Algorithm-based damage identification approach is suitable for damage detection and can be considered for further implementation using more realistic noisy response data that would be associated with the monitoring of real civil structures.

An effective approach for damage identification in beam-like structures based on modal flexibility curvature and particle swarm optimization
In this paper, a computationally simple approach for damage localization and quantification in beam-like structures is proposed. This method is based on using modal flexibility curvature (MFC) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. Analytical studies in the literature have shown that changes in the modal flexibility curvature can be considered as a sensitive and suitable criterion for...

Damage detection has been focused by researchers because of its importance in engineering practices. Therefore, different approaches have been presented to detect damage location in structures. However, the higher the accuracy of methods is required the more complex deliberations. Based on the conventional studies, it was observed that the damage locations and its size are associated with dynam...
متن کاملBASIS PURSUIT BASED GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR DAMAGE IDENTIFICATION
In damage detection the number of elements is generally more than the number of measured frequencies. Consequently, the corresponding damage detection equation is undetermined and thus has infinite solutions. Since in the damaged structures most of their elements remain healthy, the sparsest solution for the damage detection equation is mostly the actual damage. In the proposed method, the dama...
