Experimental Verification of a Structural Damage Identification Method for Beam Structures

보 구조물에 대한 손상검출기법의 실험적 검증

This paper provides an experimental verification of an FRF-based structural damage identification method (SDIM) developed by the authors for beam structures. The FRF-based SDIM requires the following data : (1) natural frequencies and mode shapes measured at the intact state and (2) the FRF-data measured at the damaged state. Experiments are conducted for the cantilevered beam with one slot and three slots. It is shown that the FRF-based SDIM developed by the authors provide very successful damage identification results which agree well with true damage state.
