Abstract
In order to identify the location and magnitude of the impact force accurately,
determine the damage range of the structure and accelerate the health monitoring of key
components of the composite, this paper studies the location and magnitude of the impact
force of composite plates by an inverse method. Firstly, a PZT sensor mounted on the
material plate is used to collect the response signal generated by the impact force, which
is from several impact locations, and establish transfer functions between the impact
location and the PZT sensor. Secondly, this paper applies several forces to any location
on the material plate, and collects the corresponding response signals, and reconstructs
the impact force of several locations in turn. Finally, according to the reconstruction
result of each location, the correct impact location is identified. Then, an improved
regularization method is used to optimize the reconstructed impact force and accurate the
magnitude of the impact force. The comparison experiments prove that the recognition
error of this method is smaller.
