Material damage in structures must be detected in a timely manner to prevent engineering
accidents. Damage detection based on structural flexibility has attracted widespread …

This paper presents a new damage detection approach for cantilever beam-type structures
using the damage-induced inter-storey deflection (DIID) estimated by modal flexibility matrix …

This work presents an efficient approach using time‐varying autoregressive with exogenous
input (TVARX) model and a substructure technique to identify the instantaneous modal …

This paper presents a new vibration-based damage detection method for beam-like
structures that uses the normalized uniform load surface (NULS) curvature obtained by …

This paper presents a localized information processing approach for long-term, online
structural health monitoring (SHM) using wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Based on the …

This paper presents a numerical and experimental investigation into the detection of defects
in composite T-stiffened panels using vibration modal analysis. The analysis was performed …

The implementation and operation of health monitoring systems in structures is an effective
method of evaluating structural serviceability, reliability, safety, and integrity and providing …

As the final stage of damage identification, damage severity identification has great
significance to structural safety assessment and decision‐making in maintenance. Take the …

Civil steel structures and infrastructures, such as truss railway bridges, are often subject to
potential damage, mainly due to fatigue phenomena and corrosion. Therefore, damage …

The closed form of the sensitivity of modal flexibility for a real undamped system is derived
based on the algebraic eigen sensitivity method. The formula is then adopted to detect the …
