Abstract

In this study, the Tabu search (TS) algorithm is introduced into the optimal sensor placement (OSP) problem in the field of the structural health monitoring and moving force identification. A TS-based OSP procedure is proposed and further evaluated by some numerical simulations on a 2D planar truss model. The mean values of off-diagonal elements in a modal assurance criterion (MAC) matrix are used as the optimization objective function. Based on the criteria of MAC, determinant of fisher matrix, matrix condition number, and the least mean square error, the TS-based OSP procedure is evaluated through comparing with ones due to both of the energy coefficient-effective independence (ECEFI) and the effective independence (EFI) algorithms. The results show that the proposed TS-based OSP procedure is feasible with a higher accuracy.
