Damage Location Identification of Truss Structure Based on Strain Modal Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

Due to the fatigue load and bad corrosion environment, truss structure in service will form the damage accumulation, damage detection of potentially damaged elements of truss structures is a challenging topic. According to the element stress characteristics of truss structure, structural element strain mode mainly based on the vibration displacement is derived, the change of elemental strain modal is proposed as the dynamic indicator for damage location identification of truss structure. Based on the numerical simulation study of the actual truss structure indicates that, the loworder elemental strain modal method is not only sensitive to damage identification of chord element and web element of truss structure, but also is effective to locate the damage of different position, and is suitable for damage alarming of truss structure in service.
