| Summary: | To identify the damaged beams in large-scale spatial structure, a damage indicator based on virtual axial strain calculated from mode shape vectors was proposed. The damage detection process was performed based on the dynamic simulation flowchart. Firstly, random signals were used for excitation and the damage was simulated by decreasing beam elasticity modulus. Then, the NEWMARK-β precision direct integral method was appreciated for calculating time history response. Finally, the frequency-domain decomposition method only using output response signal was selected for modal parameter estimation. A double-layer grid structure was taken as example for verifying the damage detection method. Results indicate that the proposed indicator was insensitive to environmental noise and capable of localizing multiple damaged members in space structure without the baseline data. |
