Among time domain responses-based methods for structural damage identification, using IRF is advantageous over the original time domain responses, since IRF consists of information of system properties and is loading effect independent. In this study, IRFs are extracted from the acceleration responses measured from different locations of structures under impact force excitations. The obtained IRFs are concatenated. Moving averaging with a suitable window size is performed to reduce random variations in the concatenated responses. Further, principal component analysis is performed for dimensionality reduction. These selected principal components are then fed to the LSTM auto-encoder for structural damage identification. A noise layer is added as an input layer to the LSTM auto-encoder to regularise the model. The proposed model consists of two phases: (1) reconstruction of the selected “principal components” to extract the features; and (2) damage identification of structural elements. Numerical studies are conducted to verify the accuracy of the proposed approach. The results demonstrate that the proposed approach can accurately identify and quantify structural damage for both single- and multiple-element damage cases with noisy measurements, as well as uncertainties in the stiffness parameters. Furthermore, the performance of the proposed approach is evaluated using the limited measurements from a few sensors.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100791,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infrastructure Intelligence and Resilience","volume":"3 2","pages":"Article 100086"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772991524000057/pdfft?md5=f3e5252bd85bf26600d9a4445daa485f&pid=1-s2.0-S2772991524000057-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140332871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cameras offer unique capabilities to provide full-field measurement with high spatial density at low cost. However, extracting high-density temporal data is challenging, as a high-speed camera increases the monitoring cost with high-rate data processing. Recently, motion magnification (MM) has shown significant success in analyzing low-amplitude motion of structural systems. However, previous studies observed that MM methodology performs poorly at low frame rates for modal identifications. In this paper, the influence of low frame rate on phased-based motion magnification (PMM) has been investigated. A novel technique is proposed by combining PMM with zero mean-normalization cross-correlation tracker to determine vibrational responses, and then the spatial Wigner-Ville spectrum-based time-frequency blind source separation method is explored for modal identification using the extracted vibrational responses obtained from the video data. The experimental data of a lumped mass experimental model and a steel bridge is used to test the accuracy of the proposed method. The original and motion-magnified image response data is compared with accelerometer data for modal identification.

As TI is known to be vulnerable to seismic hazard impacts yet necessary for post-earthquake emergency response, this study carries out a pioneering effort in quantifying the post-earthquake TI failures and functionality to better support risk mitigation decision-making. We propose a novel seismic risk assessment framework for regional 5G TI, by holistically integrating regional seismic hazard analysis, infrastructure seismic exposure data, electric power infrastructure seismic fragility modeling and network connectivity analysis, as well as wireless TI functionality modeling. The proposed framework is evaluated based on a hypothetical regional infrastructure testbed located in Memphis, Tennessee, subjected to several earthquake scenarios. From a reference heterogeneous 5G TI deployment scenario, the results indicate that significant performance degradation of 5G TI is expected especially after major earthquake events.

With this in mind, a new methodology for the analysis of electric power systems inspired by natural ecosystems is proposed here and applied to representative systems from literature. Information theory is used to quantify the results of the ecological network analysis (ENA) performed. The analysis shows that electric power systems are more efficient than reliable and vulnerable to disasters. A flow matrix is constructed from the available IEEE systems data, quantified and analyzed using information theory, and finally validated by contingency analysis and SCOPF analysis. The original network configurations are compared to random generated topologies. Comparisons are also made with ENA-inspired configurations. The latter show significantly fewer violations in each contingency scenario compared to the original configurations, further supporting the use of ENA to balance power system efficiency and resilience. Thus, ENA can be used to develop power systems with balanced efficiency and resilience.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100791,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infrastructure Intelligence and Resilience","volume":"3 1","pages":"Article 100083"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772991524000021/pdfft?md5=6a7c5da757d015787dd1f073a57fa8a3&pid=1-s2.0-S2772991524000021-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139456019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most previous studies adopted passive control devices to mitigate the seismic responses of wind turbines. However, their control effectiveness is heavily dependent on the mass ratio between control devices and wind turbines, and they were typically housed at the tower top or within the nacelle. The restricted space within the hollow tower and the nacelle imposes considerable challenges for the implementation of such devices, rendering the application of large-scale control devices unfeasible for structural vibration control of wind turbines. To this end, this paper integrates a negative stiffness element within a conventional tuned mass damper (TMD), termed KDamper, to mitigate vibrations of wind turbine towers under seismic loads. Specifically, the widely used NREL 5 MW wind turbine is selected as a prototype structure and its tower is modelled as a multiple-degree-of-freedom system. Then KDamper is incorporated into the developed model and its parameters are optimized based on the <em>H</em><sub>2</sub> criterion. Subsequently, the control effectiveness of KDamper is investigated and compared with TMD in the frequency domain, and the control performances in terms of the effectiveness and robustness of KDamper are further examined under a series of earthquake records. Results show that KDamper has superior control effectiveness and robustness than TMD, indicating it has considerable potential for application in improving wind turbine performances against earthquake hazards.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100791,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Infrastructure Intelligence and Resilience","volume":"3 1","pages":"Article 100082"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S277299152400001X/pdfft?md5=ebed026d6d0a94994b7a061c881d41de&pid=1-s2.0-S277299152400001X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139395547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
