Identification Method for Structural Parameters

Article Preview

Abstract:

A hybrid method for identifying structural parameters is presented in this paper. All the measured and integrated responses are analysed using the identification method with a shift-average procedure to identify the stiffness and damping parameters as well as to reconstruct the unknown seismic input. To evaluate the reliability of the method, the identified structural stiffness is compared with the theoretical value computed from given material and geometric properties.
