Abstract

Even significant damage may cause very small changes in structural characteristics, particularly for large structures. Furthermore,driven variability on a combined structural health monitoring (SHM) system is examined in a model plate-girder bridge. Thecombined SHM system consists of global vibration-based technique and local electro-mechanical impedance (EMI) basedtechnique. First, dynamic modal parameters of the test structure are measured before and after the occurrence of flexural cracksat various temperatures. Also, EMI signatures are sensed before and after the changes in support systems at various.Damage-induced changes in the signals are distinguished from temperature-driven uncertainty. The efect of temperaturevariability is also assessed to estimate the accuracy of damage detection.
