Using the diagram multiplication method, we introduce an analytical formula for a novel damage-identification indicator, namely the diff erence of rotational-angle influence linescurvature(DRAIL-C). If the initial stiff ness of the simply supported beam is known, the analytical formula can be effectively used to determine the extent of damage under certain circumstances. We determined the effectiveness and anti-noise performance of this new damage-identification method using numerical examples of a simply supported beam, a simply supported hollow-slab bridge, and a simply supported truss bridge. The results show that the DRAIL-C is directly proportional to the moving concentrated load and inversely proportional to the distance between the bridge support and the concentrated load and the distance between the damaged truss girder and the angle measuring points. The DRAIL-C indicator is more sensitive to the damage in a steel-truss-bridge bottom chord than it is to the other elements.展开更多

Based on natural frequency and static displacement, the study defines and considers damage criteria such as 1D and 2D single and fusion load cases. To overcome the lack of sufficient information on damage identification in large-scale structures, the authors consider multiple responses to and objective descriptions of uncertainties and various criteria.According to the finite element model and the structural responses described and measured, the fusion methods and damage criteria treat uncertainty as non-probability intervals. As long as we know the bounds of uncertain parameters, the intervals of the elemental stiffness parameters in undamaged and damaged models can be obtained by interval technology. Two numerical examples—a damage-criteria numerical example and a 5-span with 25-bar truss structure in a space solar power station—are proposed. Both examples indicate the veracity of the interval method.展开更多
