Abstract
Abstract: System Identification is an emerging area in the domain of structural engineering specially under structural health monitoring. For dynamic analysis or stimulation, the dynamic system parameters (i.e. natural frequency, mode shape, damping ratio etc.) are most important. Vibration data of actual structures are collected by different sensors. These data are analyzed with the help of different system identification technique to get inside view of the structure. This paper presents the synthetic vibration data generation of the model structure using Time History Analysis with the help of SAP2000 software. Time history analysis is performed on a cable stayed bridge. Joint acceleration, mode shapes, natural frequency etc. are found from this analysis. For system identification purpose the acceleration time history data of different locations are used to get the natural frequency of the cable stayed bridge which is a significant system identification parameter. This identification is done with the help of power spectral density (PSD) using MATLAB algorithm
