Abstract A significant amount of research is concerned with dynamic modal parameters for damage detection of structural conditions due to their simplicity in use and feasibility. However, their use for damage detection should be performed with special attention, particularly in operational and environmental conditions subjected to temperature changes. Beams in construction industries experience different loading types, such as temperature changes leading to crack initiation and propagation. Changed physical and dynamic properties such as natural frequencies and mode shapes indicate that damage has occurred within the structures. In this study, vibration analysis of cantilever and cantilever simply… More >

Abstract Beam-like structures are a class of common but important structures in engineering. Over the past few centuries, extensive research has been carried out to obtain the static and dynamic response of beam-like structures. Although building the finite element model to predict the response of these structures has proven to be effective, it is not always suitable in all the application cases because of high computational time or lack of accuracy. This paper proposes a novel approach to predict the deflection response of beam-like structures based on a deep neural network and the governing differential equation More >

Abstract This paper proposes a methodology for damage detection in beam like structures using vibration characteristics obtained from transfer matrix technique. At first, vibration characteristics of beam-like structure have been determined with the help of a computer program developed based on the formulations presented in this paper. Then, a detailed study has been carried out to categorise the influence of damage on frequency and mode shape (both displacement and rotational) information. For a structure with known magnitude and location of damage(s), frequencies and mode shape information are obtained and the same has been used in determining… More >
