After the occurrence of damage in a structure and a reduction in its stiffness, the dynamic characteristics of the structure change, and therefore, assessing the changes in its dynamic characteristics can be used as an indicator for detecting damage. In this article, an advanced technique called Direct Stiffness Calculation (DSC) and a new damage index based on flexural stiffness variations (SVI) are utilized for damage detection in structures. Initially, the proposed technique is examined on a steel beam with known specifications. Then, a reinforced concrete moment frame is modeled, and after extracting its dynamic characteristics, it is subjected to a pushover analysis to create a damage scenario without direct intervention. Based on the analysis results, the plastic hinge formation location at both ends of the beam is selected as the probable location of damage in the floor. By using the modal information of the damaged structure and calculating the SVI in the beams of the floors, it is determined that this index can accurately and significantly distinguish the location of damage only by knowing the first mode of the structure and with sufficient magnification compared to other points. Furthermore, the results demonstrate that with this method, it is possible to accurately determine the location of damage even without knowing the dynamic characteristics of the intact structure and solely with the information of the damaged structure.","PeriodicalId":14109,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70899742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Modeshape changes are a remarkable symptom of the damaged element location in structural system identification. In this paper, various mode shape based prediction techniques are applied to a common structural model. A cantilever beam model is formulated using the distributed mass and stiffness matrix based finite element modelling. Multiple damages are introduced in the above cantilever beam even with two, three and four member damage combinations. The results does not provide a concrete solution on the damage element location prediction. Further, in the computational part, the distributed computing technique using element-to-element matrix multiplications is applied. The Roving technique is also applied, which acts as a counter for self-automation. The proposed approach provides a better damage element location prediction even for the multiple damaged member combinations. The roving technique means an element scanning technique, which works with a computer clock speed. The novelty of the approach is that the method is simple and it could be applied to other structures. While scanning as automation no element is left out. Another beauty of the method is that no prior damage elements are assumed as many statistical based approaches assumed in prior. This approach could be a better way to the automation process, for the system identification and machine learning tools. doi","PeriodicalId":14109,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70899813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
