Abstract |
This paper presents a damage identification method for beam-type structures based on the wavelet analysis. The damage location is predicted by a Damage Locating Index (DLI) based on a combined identification of local maxima from the scalograms of mode shapes. A new Damage Severity Index (DSI) based on the Lipschitz exponent is formulated such that it is not dependent on the damage locations, boundary conditions, and mode order, as long as a high enough number of measuring points is considered. This study focuses on its application using relatively few measurement points and on the consistency of the DSI. Results from a beam with double-notch damage are analyzed. The results show that the method is applicable with a sparse measurement grid and the DSI Reference values from a static analysis can be referred for damage evaluation using modal displacements. The practical limits of the method are also discussed. |
