| Popis: |
Damage in structures can negatively affect their functionality and safety and leads to failure. Thus it is very important to monitor structures for occurrence, location and severity of damage. Structural health monitoring techniques provide information on the life expectancy of structures simultaneously detects and locates structural damage. Damage identification of structures based on vibration has always been important subjects and are being rapidly used to damage and location of structures. Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) as a soft computing method using dynamic parameters of structures have been utilized increasingly for structural damage detection due to their excellent pattern recognition capability. Dynamic parameters of structure are easy to implement for damage identification and can directly linked to the topology of structure. This study presents the application of ANN for damage identification in steel beams using dynamic parameters. For identification of severity and location of damage, at first, five individual neural networks corresponding to mode 1 to mode 5 are considered. At the second step, a method based on neural network ensemble is proposed to combine the outcomes of the individual neural networks to a single network. Ensemble results were evaluated and discussed according to the differences between predicted output by ANN and desire data (target data) obtained from experimental modal analysis of structure. |
