Abstract:A global damage detection algorithm for bridge-like Structures is proposed. This method provides the capability of determining the reduction in both stiffness and damping parameters of the structural elements. It is assumed the mass of the structural elements is not affected by the damages. The proposed method uses the state-space representation of the structural dynamics to determine the existence of a damage, geometric location of the damage, and the severity of the damage.
