description A novel damage identification method that utilizes the smooth orthogonal decomposition (SOD) combined with the improved beetle antennae search algorithm (BAS) presented by previous scholars is proposed. Firstly, the damage index which can track the curvature changing of mode shape identified by the SOD method is generated by an adaptive polynomial fit method. The locations of structure damages are determined according to the damage index. Thus, the number of possible damaged elements needed to be taken into account can be reduced when calculating the degree of damage. Then, the reduction in the stiffness at the damage location of the structure is calculated by the improved BAS in which the fitness function is constructed by calculated frequencies of the damaged structure in each iteration and the modal frequencies obtained by SOD. The BAS algorithm is improved through a fusion strategy of simulated annealing theory. Thus, the improved BAS algorithm is efficient and adaptive. The effect of this combined application in damage identification has been verified by numerical examples of a simply supported beam with single damage and a cantilever beam with double damage. The numerical results show that this combined algorithm exhibits high reliability in damage identification of beam-like structures.
