环境激励下基于波动能量法的结构损伤识别

目前作为结构健康监测系统核心的损伤识别大多是基于模态参数变化而进行的,但模态参数对局部损坏不敏感,导致损伤识别精度不够。波在结构中的传播状态可以更好地反映局部损伤状况,波动能量可以作为损伤识别的有效指标。为了提高环境激励下结构损伤识别的精度,采用S变换分析了结构输出信号,建立波动能量指标,从而使波动能量指标的使用领域扩展到非平稳信号范围。最后通过三层钢框架试验及弹性分层剪切梁的数值模型对该方法进行了验证,结果表明:该方法不仅能够有效识别结构损伤位置,而且能够识别出损伤程度。     

A frequency response function change method for damage localization and quantification in a shear building under ground excitation

A frequency response function change (FRFC) method to detect damage location and extent based on the change in the frequency response functions of a shear building under the effects of ground excitation was proposed in this paper. The damage identification equation was derived from the motion equations of the system before and after the occurrence of the damage. Efforts to make the FRFC method less model‐dependent were made. Intact system matrices, which could be estimated using the measured data without the need for an analytical model, and the frequency response functions were required for the FRFC method. The effects of measurement noise and model parameter error in the FRFC method were studied numerically. The proposed FRFC method was validated by experimental studies of a six‐story steel building structure with single and multiple damage cases. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
