Identifying fracture-controlled resonance modes for structural health monitoring: insights from Hunter Canyon Arch (Utah, USA) by G. Grechi, G. Grechi, J. R. Moore, M. E. McCreary, E. K. Jensen, S. Martino

“…An evolutionary crack damage model was then applied to simulate fracture propagation, confirming that only this higher mode is sensitive to structural damage resulting from fracture growth. While examination of fundamental modes is common practice in structural health monitoring studies, our results suggest that analysis of higher-order resonance modes can be more informative for characterizing fracture-driven structural damage.…”
