Abstract

For the problem of fatigue damage detection and damage degree assessment of plate structures, a quantitative damage assessment method based on the fast self-organizing feature mapping (FSOM) algorithm is proposed in this paper. The damage detection problem is transformed into a binary classification problem by extracting multidimensional damage features of the Lamb wave signal in plate to be detected and selecting damage sensitive features. Then, the FSOM network is used to identify the health state of the plate to be inspected, and the damage index is obtained by fusing the damage sensitive features using FSOM to quantitatively evaluate the damage level of the plate to be inspected. Simulation and experimental results show this method has a good dynamic tracking capability for the fatigue damage evolution of aluminum and composite plates, and can achieve quantitative assessment of fatigue damage of plate structures.
