This study presents a comprehensive review of the history of research and development of
different damage-detection methods in the realm of composite structures. Different fields of …

Suffering from solar radiation, day–night replacement and seasonal changes, the structure
will produce notable temperature behaviour, which has a vital effect on the long-term …

When using the analysis of vibration measurements as a tool for health monitoring of
bridges, the problem arises of separating abnormal changes from normal changes in the …

Structural health monitoring (SHM) is a term increasingly used in the last decade to describe
a range of systems implemented on full-scale civil infrastructures and whose purposes are to …

Stated in its most basic form, the objective of structural health monitoring is to ascertain if
damage is present or not based on measured dynamic or static characteristics of a system to …

The goal of this article is to detect structural damage in the presence of operational and
environmental variations using vibration-based damage identification procedures. For this …

A damage detection method is proposed for structural health monitoring under varying
environmental and operational conditions. The method is based on principal component …

Changing environmental conditions, especially temperature, have been observed to be a
complicated factor affecting vibration properties, such as frequencies, mode shapes, and …

This paper discusses two very relevant practical issues in the application of vibration-based
health monitoring to civil engineering structures: the excitation source and the effect of …

A Kalman filtering based framework for structural damage assessment under changing
environmental conditions is presented. The approach is based on the well-known property …
