This method involves two main steps. First, a two-axle test vehicle is used to collect acceleration response signals synchronously from adjacent designated measurement points while stationary. This operation is repeated to calculate the second-order statistical moment curvature (SOSMC) difference of entire bridge points corresponding signals in different states. By comparing with the reference value, the preliminary damage location of the bridge can be obtained. Second, the first-order modal shape curve is constructed using the second-order statistical moment (SOSM). The refined identification of bridge damage is then based on an improved direct stiffness back calculation of the bridge's stiffness. This article proposes the synchronization theory for the first time and combines it with the statistical moment clustering method, forming an innovative approach to obtaining structural vibration modes. The effectiveness of this method has been well validated through numerical simulations with different parameters and on-site bridge tests. The research results indicate that SOSMC indicators have better noise resistance and higher recognition efficiency in identifying damage locations, compared to modal curvature and flexibility curvature indicators. Additionally, compared to transfer rate and random subspace methods, the SOSM method results in smaller error and higher identification efficiency.","PeriodicalId":156,"journal":{"name":"Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.775,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141754227","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These damage types encompass surface soot, cracks, concrete spalling, and rebar exposure. A dataset containing 1536 images depicting damaged RC components was compiled. By integrating ShuffleNet, adaptive attention mechanisms, and a feature enhancement module, the capability of the network for multi‐scale feature extraction in complex backgrounds was improved, alongside a reduction in model parameters. Consequently, YOLOv5s‐D achieved a detection accuracy of 93%, marking an 11% enhancement over the baseline YOLOv5s network. Comparison and ablation tests conducted on different modules, varying dataset sizes, against other state‐of‐the‐art networks, and on public datasets validate the resilience, superiority, and generalization capability of YOLOv5s‐D. Finally, an application leveraging YOLOv5s‐D was developed and integrated into a mobile device to facilitate real‐time detection of post‐fire damaged RC components. This application can integrate diverse fire scenarios and data types, expanding its scope in future. The proposed detection method compensates for the subjective limitations of manual inspections, providing a reference for damage assessment.","PeriodicalId":156,"journal":{"name":"Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.775,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141755157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While modern numerical methods effectively address forward displacement-based problems, identifying the settlement causing a specific crack pattern remains an unsolved yet crucial challenge. For the first time, this research solves this highly non-linear back-engineering problem by proposing a robust and automated methodology synergizing artificial neural networks (ANNs) and the piecewise rigid displacement (PRD) method. The PRD's fast computational solving allows the generation of large datasets used to train specific ANNs through Levenberg–Marquardt and conjugate gradient algorithms. Using the location and widths of the main structural cracks as input, the proposed approach offers an instantaneous and accurate ANN-based identification of foundation settlements that cause the detected damage scenario.

The training of PINOS adopts a weak form based on the principle of least work for static simulations and a strong form for dynamic systems in solid mechanics. Results from numerical examples indicated that PINOS is capable of approximating solutions notably faster than the benchmarks of PINNs in both static an dynamic systems. The comparisons also showed that PINOS reached a convergence speed of over 20 times faster than finite element software in two-dimensional and three-dimensional static problems. Furthermore, this study examined the zero-shot super-resolution capability by developing Super-Resolution PINOS (SR-PINOS) that was trained on a coarse mesh and validated on fine mesh. The numerical results demonstrate the great performance of the model to obtain accurate solutions with a speed up, suggesting effectiveness in increasing sampling points and scaling a simulation.

The framework leverages the strengths of multiresolution dynamic mode decomposition (mrDMD) for feature extraction and incorporates a novel regularization term within an existing sensor placement algorithm under constraints. This innovative term enables the algorithm to consider real-world system constraints during sensor selection, leading to a more practical and efficient solution for wind pressure analysis. mrDMD effectively analyzes the multiscale features of wind pressure data. The extracted mrDMD modes, combined with the enhanced constrained QR decomposition technique, guide the selection of informative sensor locations. This approach minimizes the required number of sensors while ensuring accurate pressure field reconstruction and adhering to real-world placement constraints.
