The technique utilizes a pair of digital cameras to capture dynamic operational deflection shapes (ODSs) over the region of interest (ROI) of a structure’s surface via digital image correlation (DIC) when subjected to vibrational excitation. This research overcomes bottlenecks in using high vibration modes for imaging the hidden damage area by (1) applying DIC to operational modal analysis with simple pick-peaking techniques to gather natural frequencies and operational mode shapes in plate structures, while (2) using wavelet analysis to reveal the image of the damage region as a means for baseline-free global damage quantification. In the feasibility study, four cases with two aluminum plates with large damage regions were investigated with a vibration shaker generating a frequency sweep up to 1 kHz. The stereo camera imaged the speckled surface of the plate with white light. Once the dynamic ODSs in the ROI were observed using DIC, the natural frequencies and associated operational mode shapes were extracted using a peak-picking technique in the frequency spectrum. Natural frequencies and operational mode shapes from finite element analysis correlated well with the experimental observations from three-dimensional DIC for all 12 vibration modes respectively. A wavelet transform mode shape curvature (WT-MSC) technique to obtain the modal shape curvature via a two-dimensional continuous wavelet transform with a Mexican Hat analyzing wavelet was then implemented on each of the first 12 vibration mode shapes. A damage image condition that incorporates all weighted wavelet coefficients is proposed to image the damage region. The hidden damage was visualized clearly with WT-MSC, as the technique is much less sensitive to noise than the use of MSC alone, and the use of high vibration modes exhibiting larger mode shape curvatures provided a greater sensitivity for imaging the damage region. Hidden damage regions were successfully visualized in all four cases.","PeriodicalId":51184,"journal":{"name":"Structural Health Monitoring-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44448241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To prevent these outcomes, it is crucial to identify the causes of failure and monitor their signs. One of the main causes of failure is unexpected third-party interference (TPI), which is particularly challenging to detect. Regarding to this issue, this study proposes a new algorithm for monitoring impact damage, which can be used for prompt response and damage prevention. The algorithm is integrated into the system using two approaches. The first approach focuses on detecting the location of the damage (referred to as source location). A kurtosis-based transfer function was newly proposed to selecting the optimal frequency band for time-difference-of-arrival based source location, resulting in accurate pinpointing of damage, even in a noisy environment. The second approach is used to determine whether impact damage has actually occurred by observing newly suggested features in both the time and frequency domains (referred to as anomaly detection). These features evaluate the presence of damage and the similarity between signals. As a result, it was evaluated that the field applicability was higher than that of conventional methods, and the superiority of the proposed method was also verified through field experiments. The method proposed in this study is expected to enable immediate response when the integrity of the buried pipelines is on the line of failure due to TPI.","PeriodicalId":51184,"journal":{"name":"Structural Health Monitoring-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48339623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In general, ISs of a real bridge can be identified through calibration tests using calibration vehicles with known weights moving across the bridge. However, the existing methods face difficulties in considering comprehensive factors, such as the lateral movement, speed variation, and track width of the calibration vehicle, as well as bridge dynamic effects. These factors inevitably introduce inaccuracies into the task of identification. To comprehensively consider these factors, this study proposes a deep learning-based method that combines deep multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) and computer vision (CV), with deep MLP adopted to identify bridge ISs and CV employed to obtain the position coordinates of the calibration vehicle’s wheels. A series of numerical simulations and field experiments on an in-service bridge were carried out to validate the proposed framework and compare it against a broadly established method to such an end—Quilligan’s method.

Among these methods, the Reconstruction Algorithm for Probabilistic Inspection (RAPID), using a Piezoelectric transducer (PZT) sensor array, is one of the most widely used imaging algorithms to perform active damage monitoring and localization. However, since the sensing paths are distributed inside the sensor array with the non-uniform density, the RAPID algorithm can only localize damage when it is occurring inside of the array. If the damage occurs outside of the array or both inside and outside of the array, that is, multi-type damage, the performance of RAPID algorithm would not be satisfactory. In this paper, a scattering coefficient-based RAPID algorithm with damage indexes separation and imaging fusion is proposed. The amplitude of damage scattered signal at the corresponding time of fight is adopted as the weight in the probability distribution function, and damage indexes are then classified into two categories in the RAPID algorithm for the inside and outside damage localization respectively. Finally, an experiment on the complex composite plate, with the center large hole and surrounding bolt holes, is carried out to verify this proposed method. Experimental results show that this method can realize multi-type damage localization with errors less than 40 mm.","PeriodicalId":51184,"journal":{"name":"Structural Health Monitoring-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46085338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed model mainly consists of a feature extractor and anomaly detector. Based on the deep reinforcement learning framework, the feature extractor uses a dual-input deep neural network to form the current value network and the target value network, which are used to extract the low-dimensional feature vectors. Based on the 3 σ principle, the reward function of reinforcement learning is designed to reward and punish the output results of the model during training. The model was trained only with the normal data, and the extracted feature vector of the normal class was used as the input of the anomaly detector to complete the learning of the detector. During the test, the input anomaly detection was realized based on the dual-input convolutional neural network, and the anomaly detector was completed by learning. To illustrate the generality and generalization performance of the proposed method, four sets of image data and two sets of rolling bearing fault data in different fields were verified respectively.

Most DAS monitoring systems can localize leakages of a pipeline but fail to identify potential non-destructive damages like bolt looseness on joints before the leakage occurs. An early damage identification is indispensable to averting severe leakages and secondary disasters. In this study, an optical phase mode analysis method is proposed for identifying pipeline bolt looseness. This method combines structure mode analysis and distributed optical phase demodulation to extract damage-related phase mode parameters. Two algorithms are specially designed for denoising and selecting signals essential for mode analysis. Phase time histories are retrieved from the original optical phase, which are decomposed to acquire phase mode shapes that can localize bolt looseness through Hilbert-Huang transform enhanced with bandwidth restricted empirical mode decomposition. Phase damping ratio is proposed to further quantify the looseness degree. Polarization diversity technique is employed to avoid polarization fading. An experiment was conducted upon a 3.2 m steel pipeline with flange joints. Bolt looseness on three joints are respectively localized even if only one bolt is loosened, obtaining a localization error of 0.07 m and 85.7% recognition ratio. The phase damping ratio shows apparent positive correlation with the number of loose bolts. The error of quantified loose bolt number is 0.79. The present study demonstrates how to localize and quantify pipeline bolt looseness through dynamical mode analysis for distributed optical phase. The developed method can identify potential damages that change the mechanical properties of a pipeline before they get severe, and holds promise in the long-distance health monitoring of other structures.","PeriodicalId":51184,"journal":{"name":"Structural Health Monitoring-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47581652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although numerous modal parameter estimation (MPE) methods exist, it is not guaranteed that an MPE process will exclude all spurious modes and not lose any physical modes every time over a long-term monitoring period. Relatively large damping of a structure, poor data quality, and significant changes in structural modal parameters may make the estimated modal parameters spurious, missing, or misclassified. It makes long-term modal tracking semiautomated or manual, which constrains timely downstream applications such as anomaly detection, condition assessment, and decision making. This research aims to propose a long-term continuous automatic modal tracking algorithm based on Bayesian inference even when the modal parameters, damping, and data quality change significantly. Bayesian inference is used to determine the physical modes from the results of existing MPE methods. Both the modes identified from the most recent response set and the modal probability model from multiple previous response sets are considered in the Bayesian model to better determine the physical modes from the results of MPE. Moreover, the proposed algorithm requires only three extra hyperparameters compared to general modal tracking algorithms, and they can be quickly determined by a grid search method. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified by a numerical example and a real-world civil structure Z24 Bridge benchmark.","PeriodicalId":51184,"journal":{"name":"Structural Health Monitoring-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45513812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the presence of defects arising from manufacturing processes or during service loads can make these structures more susceptible to a diminished performance. Furthermore, the former defects are inevitable in composite structures, but they can be reduced. Each type of defect requires specific inspection techniques and configurations. In this work, a review of the different types of composites manufacturing processes and their corresponding resultant defects is presented with the various nondestructive evaluation techniques employed for these defects’ characterization. The emphasis of this paper is on ultrasonic inspection and detection techniques for they present high sensitivity to surface/subsurface discontinuities, superior depth of ultrasonic penetration for flaw detection, feasibility on large scales, and instantaneous and detailed images production. Notably, noncontact ultrasonic testing techniques are also reviewed, air-coupled techniques in specific, and highlighted as a fine alternative to conventional contact inspection systems as they reduce the restrictions that coexist with the use of couplants. Moreover, these ultrasonic testing techniques are summarized to show the latest research progress achieved in the field of air-coupled ultrasonic inspection systems for manufacturing defects’ monitoring in composite structures including delamination, porosity, dryness, waviness, and resin lack/excess. Finally, we highlight the type and central frequency of the transducers and experimental results present in literature and obtained in terms of both detection and size of the defects.","PeriodicalId":51184,"journal":{"name":"Structural Health Monitoring-An International Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45934205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
