Abstract Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is concerned with identifying damage based on measurements obtained from structures being monitored. For the civil structures exposed to time-varying environmental and operational conditions, it is inevitable that environmental and operational variability produces an adverse effect on the dynamic behaviors of the structures. Since the signals are measured under the influence of these varying conditions, normalizing the data to distinguish the effects of damage from those caused by the environmental and operational variations is important in order to achieve successful structural health monitoring goals.
