Modal, frequency-response, and moving-load analysis for system and damage identification of various structures
Abstract
The structural health monitoring of bridges and slender towers is usually done by modal analysis. Recent research is focused on developing better tools for operational modal analysis; removing environmental effects, especially the influence of temperature; and advancing automated monitoring, statistical methods, and the use of artificial intelligence. Many structures, however, are not as isolated as bridges or slender towers. They are coupled to other structures, like a floor in a building, or coupled to the soil, such as buildings, foundations, or railway tracks. These structures need alternative methods for system and damage identification.
