Abstract
Displacement is an important parameter for evaluating structural performance. However, the accurate measurement of global dynamic displacement remains a challenging task. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a global dynamic displacement reconstruction method for lattice tower structures, fusing limited acceleration and strain data. First, the strain-displacement mapping method for cantilever beams with variable cross-sections is presented and then extended to lattice towers. Thereafter, a modified multi-rate data fusion algorithm incorporating Kalman filtering and the proposed strain-displacement mapping methods is developed to fuse the acceleration and strain data to reconstruct the global dynamic displacement of the tower. The numerical simulation, model test and full-scale test demonstrate that the reconstructed dynamic displacements using the proposed method agree well with the reference values in both the time and frequency domains, and the parametric analysis has also been carried out, exhibiting great robustness and high reconstruction accuracy.
