An Improved Damage Detection Method and its Application

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new method called Grey Relation Modal Flexibility Curvature Difference (GRMFCD)is proposed and applied to the numerical experiment and experimental research of a substructure. The results show the ability of GMFCD to locate the inflicted damage and qualitatively evaluate its severity for single and multiple scenarios, with only a few lower order modal parameters. The effectiveness and advantages of GMFCD as compared to the flexibility indicators, such as the change in flexibility, the curvature of the flexibility difference, are demonstrated.
