In this paper, the use of thermoelastic measurements to improve a "nite element model is investigated. The originality of the procedure lies in the use of this stress sum "eld measurement and in the new solution method of the modelling error location stage. Measurement inaccuracies and expansion err

When vibration data are used to identify faults in structures it is not completely clear whether to use either frequency response functions or modal parameters. This paper presents a committee of neural networks technique, which employs both frequency response functions and modal data simultaneously
In this paper, a modal identi"cation system that is based on the vector backward autoregressive (VBAR) model has been developed for the identi"cation of natural frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes of structures from measured output data. The modal identi"cation using forward autoregressive a
This paper uses antiresonant frequencies in the "nite element model updating of an experimental 6-m aluminum truss and analyzes the physical correctness of the updated model by using it to detect damage. Rigid elements are used to simplify the modelling of welded joints, and their dimensions are use
This paper deals with the important question of structural safety after extreme loadings like an earthquake. The structure investigated here is the so-called 'Steelquake' benchmark structure, a two-storey building which was subjected by an artificial seismic loading causing cracks at three locations
In this paper, the variation of the dynamic characteristics of a pear (Conference type) due to changes in material characteristics is investigated using "nite element simulations. An image processing techniques has been used to obtain the geometrical model of a Conference pear. The dynamic behaviour
