Bridge damage detection based on vibration data: past and new developments [PDF]
Overtime, bridge condition declines due to a number of degradation processes such as creep, corrosion, and cyclic loading, among others. Traditionally, vibration-based damage detection techniques in bridges have focused on monitoring changes to modal ...

Fatigue Crack Monitoring of T-Type Joints in Steel Offshore Oil and Gas Jacket Platform
Several approaches have been used in the past to predict fatigue crack growth rates in T-joints of the offshore structures, but there are relatively few cases of applying structural health monitoring during the non-destructive testing of jacket platforms.

Sensor placement with optimal damage detectability for statistical damage detection
Damage diagnosis based on global structural vibrations critically depends on the sensor layout, in particular when a small number of sensors is used for large structures under unknown excitation. This paper proposes a sensor placement strategy that yields an optimized sensor layout with maximum damage detectability in selected structural components ...

Principal component analysis and perturbation theory–based robust damage detection of multifunctional aircraft structure [PDF]
A fundamental problem in structural damage detection is to define an efficient feature to calculate a damage index. Furthermore, due to perturbations from various sources, we also need to define a rigorous threshold whose overtaking indicates the ...
