Abstract
The objective of the current work is to show the effectiveness of using wavelet transform for detection and localization of small damages. The spatial data used here are the rotational mode shapes of the damaged and undamaged plate-like structures. The continuous wavelet transform using complex Gaussian wavelet is used to get the spatially distributed wavelet coefficients so as to identify the damage position on a square plate. The rotational mode shape data of the square plate with damage of different sizes are obtained using ANSYS 9.0. Damage identification for different boundary conditions is studied.
