Frequency Response Function-Based Finite Element Model Updating Using Extreme Learning Machine Model
A frequency response function- (FRF-) based surrogate model for finite element model updating (FEMU) is presented in this paper. Extreme learning machine (ELM) is introduced as the surrogate model of the finite element model (FEM) to construct the ...

Extension of the strain energy updating technique to a multilayered shell model with adaptive displacements and fixed DOF [PDF]
The strain energy updating technique (SEUPT) is extended to a new zigzag shell model with a hierarchical piecewise representation of displacements, which can adapt to a variation of solutions across the thickness.

Updating of Finite Element Models Including Damping [PDF]
Finite element models are updated in two stages in this paper. In the first stage, damping is neglected, and mass and stiffness matrices of a finite element model are updated using an optimization technique. The objective function for optimization consists of natural frequencies and mode shapes obtained from experimental modal testing data and finite ...

An improved spectral decomposition flexibility perturbation method for finite element model updating
Finite element analysis is the most powerful tool to predict the behavior of a structure in engineering practice. Generally, the initial finite element model must be corrected with experimental data due to its complexity.
