✦ Synopsis

The model-based forward and inverse problems in the diagnosis of structural crack location and size by using the finite element method of a B-spline wavelet on the interval (FEM BSWI) were studied. First the crack and uncracked elements of BSWI were built to solve the forward problem. The first three frequencies influencing functions of normalized crack location and size are approximated by means of surface-fitting techniques. Then the first three measured natural frequencies are employed as inputs of the functions. The intersection of the three frequencies contour lines predicted the normalized crack location and size. Both the numerical and experimental studies verified the validity of the BSWI elements in solving crack singular problems with high performance.

In this paper we consider the application of hierarchical functions to base approximations which are a partition of unity. The particular hierarchical functions used are added to base finite element interpolations which, for Co approximations, are a particular case of the partition of unity. We also

In this paper, a new method for detecting a multi-cracked beam-like structure subjected to a moving vehicle is presented. The crack model is adopted from fracture mechanics. The dynamic response of the bridge–vehicle system is measured directly from the moving vehicle. When moving along the structur
