Abstract

This work presents a modified modal strain energy change (M-MSEC) method and its corresponding iteration process to detect damage to frame structures. Analytical results of a three-dimensional frame structure demonstrate that the quantity of damage can be identified correctly by using different modes in the M-MSEC method. A full-scale experimental study is also performed to evaluate the robustness of the M-MSEC method on damage detection as well as damage quantification. Satisfactory results are shown in relation to the modeling error, noise effect, and limited measurements.
