This work aims to provide a broad overview of computational techniques belonging to the
area of artificial intelligence tailored for identification of nonlinear dynamical systems. Both …

A review of representative research on tuned massed dampers (TMD) reported in journals in
recent years is presented. TMDs are divided into four categories: conventional TMDs …

Unlike 1D or 2D displacement measurement sensors, a motion capture system (MCS) can
determine the movement of markers in any direction precisely. In addition, an MCS can …

This article presents a new robust automated image processing method for detecting cracks
in surface images of concrete structures. This method involves two steps:(1) development of …

Modal strain energy (MSE) is a sensitive physical property that can be utilized as a damage
index in structural health monitoring. Inverse problem solving‐based approaches using …

A review of representative research reported in journal articles in the field of structural
system identification published in journals since 1995 is presented. The paper is divided into …

An integrated structural health monitoring (SHM) system for highway bridges is presented.
The system is based on a customized wireless sensor network platform with a flexible …

Operational modal analysis subjected to ambient or natural excitation under operational
conditions has recently drawn great attention. In this article, the power spectrum density …

This study presents a new method to find the optimal control forces for active tuned mass
damper. The method uses three algorithms: discrete wavelet transform (DWT), particle …
