Abstract Model updating may be defined as an adjustment on the FE model through modal parameters experimentally obtained, in order to better represent its dynamic behavior. From this definition, structural health monitoring (SHM) methods can be considered closely related with these procedures, because it refers to the implementation of in situ non-destructive sensing and analysis of the dynamic system characteristics, which aims to detect changes that could indicate damage. Within this context, the present paper evaluates an iterative model updating approach when it is subjected to experimental vibration data. In addition, after getting the experimental adjusted… More >
