This paper presents a review of structural dynamic model updating techniques. Starting with
a tutorial introduction of basic concepts of model updating, the paper reviews direct and …

Eigenvalue and eigenvector derivatives with respect to system design variables and their
applications have been and continue to be one of the core issues in the design, control and …

Bridges are indispensable components of the infrastructure of modern society, and their
assessment via techniques of structural dynamics is assuming greater importance. This …

The inverse eigensensitivity method and the response function method of analytical model
updating have become relatively more popular among other methods and have been …

This paper presents an eigensensitivity-based finite element (FE) model updating procedure
for FE model updating of an existing 310 m tall Nanjing TV Tower based on ambient …

Due to the important contribution of damping on structural vibration, model updating of
damped structures becomes significant and remains an issue in most model updating …

An effective algorithm, which combined an adaptive real-parameter genetic algorithm with
simulated annealing, is proposed to detect damage occurrence in beam-type structures. The …

A direct method is proposed for updating the mass and stiffness matrices of a structural
model such that it can accurately reproduce the frequencies measured for the structure. To …

The problem of model updating for mechanical or structural systems is addressed by using
incomplete modal measurement. The proposed method requires only the modal frequencies …

This study presents a novel sensitivity-based finite element model updating approach to
estimate structural parameters using output-only data. An exact sensitivity relation based on …
