Abstract

In civil engineering, health monitoring of structure have been treated as an important subject. Health monitoring by using experimental measurements such as strain, acceleration, velocity, displacement, rotation and other parameters has been used for detecting changes, which may indicate damage or degradation. In recent, the applications of health monitoring of large structure have been facilitated by the developments in measurement, communications and computational technology gradually. Especially, large civil structures as bridges are damaged by fatigue loads or unexpected load such as earthquakes and finally reach to failure. Thus, a structural health monitoring and damage detection methods have been developed and attracted a great deal of public attention in recent decades. Actually many research efforts have been conducted to develop a health monitoring and damage detection techniques of existing civil structures. However, these methods are needed to improve to apply to a real civil structure. The purpose of this study is to develop a practical instrument to identify dynamic parameters of real civil structural systems.
