A spectral inverse technique, which was developed by applying the pulse basis moment method procedure on the direct scattering problem in the reverse sequence for the reconstruction of complex permittivity profiles inside inhomogeneous dielectric objects, is modified to be applicable to the moment method with series-expanded basis. By performing numerical simulations for various type of dielectric objects, it is demonstrated that this inverse technique provides close reconstruction of permittivity profiles. Futhermore, compared to the previous scheme of the pulse basis, the presented method is shown to reduce the computation cost, relative error of reconstructed permittivity profiles by averaging in each cell, and the ill-posedness inherent to this inverse scattering problem.

The aim of EIT (electrical impedance tomography) system is to image cross-section conductivity distribution of a human body by means of both generating and sensing electrodes attached on to the surface of the body, where currents are injected and voltages are measured. EIT has been suffered from the severe ill-posedness which is caused by the inherent low sensitivity of boundary measurements to any changes of internal tissue conductivity values. With a limited set of current-to-voltage data, figuring out full structure of the conductivity distribution could be extremely difficult at present time, so it could be worthwhile to extract some necessary partial information of the internal conductivity. We try to extract some key patterns of current-to-voltage data that furnish some core information on the conductivity distribution such s location and size. This overview provides our recent observation on the location search and the size estimation.

Hysteretic behaviors of a seismic isolator are identified by using the regularized output error estimator (OEE) based on the secant stiffness model. A proper regularity condition of tangent stiffness for the current OEE is proposed considering the regularity condition of Duhem hysteretic operator. The proposed regularity condition is defined by 12-norm of the tangent stiffness with respect to time. The secant stiffness model for the OEE is obtained by approximating the tangent stiffness under the proposed regularity condition by the secant stiffness at each time step. A least square method is employed to minimize the difference between the calculated response and measured response for the OEE. The regularity condition of the secant stiffness is utilized to alleviate ill-posedness of the OEE and to yield numerically stable solutions through the regularization technique. An optimal regularization factor determined by geometric mean scheme (GMS) is used to yield appropriate regularization effects on the OEE.

전기 임피던스 단층촬영법(EIT)에서 역문제는 매우 높은 비정치성이므로 이것을 완화시키기 위해서 사전정보가 사용되고 EIT 역문제를 푸는 과정에서 만족스러운 복원성능을 갖기 위해 조정 기법은 적용된다. 반복적 Gauss-Newton 방법은 정확성과 빠른 수렴속도로 인해서 일반적으로 역문제를 푸는데 사용되지만 항상 좋은 성능을 내는 것은 아니며 조정 인자 선택에 따라 성능이 좌지우지된다. 비록 L-곡선과 같이 조정 인자를 결정하는데 이용할 수 있는 여러 가지 방법들이 존재하지만 이러한 방법들이 모든 경우에 적용할 수 있는 것은 아니다. 게다가 조정 인자는 스칼라이고 반복 연산동안 변하지 않는다. 그러므로 이 논문에서는 복원 성능을 향상시키기 위해서 조정 인자를 결정해주는 새로운 방법을 사용하였다. 각각의 반복 연산과정에서 도전율의 norm을 구하고 이것을 대각 행렬형태인 조정 인자를 구하는데 사용한다. 제안한 방법을 인체 흉부 영상 복원에 적용하였고, 기존의 방법들과 복원 성능을 비교하였다. 모의실험 결과, 기존의 방법들과 비교해서 개선된 성능을 확인할 수 있었다.

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) has been suffered from the severe ill-posedness which is caused by the inherent low sensitivity of boundary measurements to any changes of internal resistivity values. So, small noise occur unexpected reconstruction image. Generally in EIT system, if measured voltage includes noise, we can't find object location and resistivity values. In this paper, we propose digital filter for measured voltage in EIT. Newton-Raphson is the most..popular algorithm in EIT, but noise cause to blur image. We use Fourier transform (FT) in order to minimize the noise and design the filter. After filtering, result of reconstruction image is improved better than before filtering.

Structural damage identification (SDI) methods have been proposed to monitor the safety of structures. However, the traditional SDI methods using modal parameters, such as natural frequencies and mode shapes, are not sensitive enough to structural damage. To tackle this problem, this paper proposes a new SDI method based on transmissibility assurance criterion (TAC) and weighted Schatten-p norm regularization. Firstly, the transmissibility function (TF) has been proved a useful damage index, which can effectively detect structural damage under unknown excitations. Inspired by the modal assurance criterion (MAC), TF and MAC are combined to construct a new damage index, so called as TAC, which is introduced into the objective function together with modal parameters. In addition, the weighted Schatten-p norm regularization method is adopted to improve the ill-posedness of the SDI inverse problem. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, some numerical simulations and experimental studies in laboratory are carried out. The results show that the proposed method has a high SDI accuracy, especially for weak damages of structures, it can precisely achieve damage locations and quantifications with a good robustness.

In this paper, a new modified conjugate gradient (MCG) method is presented which is based on a new gradient regularizer, and this method is used to identify the dynamic load on airfoil structure without and with considering random structure parameters. First of all, the newly proposed algorithm is proved to be efficient and convergent through the rigorous mathematics theory and the numerical results of determinate dynamic load identification. Secondly, using the perturbation method, we transform uncertain inverse problem about force reconstruction into determinate load identification problem. Lastly, the statistical characteristics of identified load are evaluated by statistical methods. Especially, this newly proposed approach has successfully solved determinate and uncertain inverse problems about dynamic load identification. Numerical simulations validate that the newly developed method in this paper is feasible and stable in solving load identification problems without and with considering random structure parameters. Additionally, it also shows that most of the observation error of the proposed algorithm in solving dynamic load identification of deterministic and random structure is respectively within 11.13%, 20%.

Recently, many structural damage detection (SDD) methods have been proposed to monitor the safety of structures. As an important modal parameter, mode shape has been widely used in SDD, and the difference of vectors was adopted based on sensitivity analysis and mode shapes in the existing studies. However, amplitudes of mode shapes in different measured points are relative values. Therefore, the difference of mode shapes will be influenced by their amplitudes, and the SDD results may be inaccurate. Focus on this deficiency, a multi-strategy SDD method is proposed based on the included angle of vectors and sparse regularization in this study. Firstly, inspired by modal assurance criterion (MAC), a relationship between mode shapes and changes in damage coefficients is established based on the included angle of vectors. Then, frequencies are introduced for multi-strategy SDD by a weighted coefficient. Meanwhile, sparse regularization is applied to improve the ill-posedness of the SDD problem. As a result, a novel convex optimization problem is proposed for effective SDD. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, numerical simulations in a planar truss and experimental studies in a six-story aluminum alloy frame in laboratory are conducted. The identified results indicate that the proposed method can effectively reduce the influence of noises, and it has good ability in locating structural damages and quantifying damage degrees.

전기 임피던스 단층촬영법은 표적의 경계면에서 여러 개의 전극을 통하여 전류를 주입하고 저항률의 함수로써 경계면에 유기되는 전압을 구하고, 경계면에 유기된 전압 값으로부터 표적 내부의 저항률 분포를 추정하여 표적의 영상을 복원하는 비교적 새로운 영상복원법이다. 본 논문에서는, 상태방정식과 측정방정식으로 구성되는 동적 모델에 기초하여, 시간에 따라 변하는 저항률 분포를 온라인으로 추정하기 위해 확장 칼만 필터를 이용한 전기 임피던스 단층촬영법의 영상복원 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한, Tikhonov 조정 기법에 근거한 제약조건을 비용함수에 추가하여 역문제의 부정치성을 완화시켰다. 제안된 영상복원 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하기 위해 16 채널에 대한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 시간에 따른 표적의 저항률 분포의 변화가 심한 경우에도 비교적 양호한 복원성능을 나타내었다.
