Abstract
A new state-of-the art methodology named as inverse Finite Element Method (iFEM) is adopted to solve the inverse problem of real-time reconstruction of full-field structural displacements, strains, and stresses. iFEM has shown to be precise, robust, and fast enough to reconstruct the three dimensional displacement field of structures in real-time by utilizing surface strain measurements obtained from strain sensors embedded on the structure. The numerical implementation of the iFEM methodology is done by considering four-node inverse quadrilateral shell element. Two demonstration cases are presented including a quadrilateral plate subjected to bending force and a stiffened plate under bending loading. Finally, the effect of sensor locations, number of sensors and the discretization of the geometry are examined on solution accuracy.
