An approach for the identification of discontinuous and nonsmooth nonlinear forces, as those generated by frictional contacts, in mechanical systems that can be approximated by a …
In many applications involving modelling of complex structural dynamical systems, the mathematical models employed are often simplified abstractions of a real-world …
Offshore wind structures are exposed to a harsh marine environment and are subject to deterioration mechanisms throughout their operational lifetime. Even if the deterioration …
With the rapid advancement of offshore wind energy, efficiently managing inspection and maintenance (I&M) of wind turbine support structures has become increasingly important …
Sequential Bayesian inference schemes show tremendous potential for online information extraction from sparsely instrumented, uncertain dynamical systems. Within this context …
