Damage localization in data-driven vibration-based structural health monitoring using linear quadratic estimation theory
Vibration-based Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is classically approached from two different directions; both involve the acquisition and processing of vibration signals. The first and most popular strategy, which is also followed in the present thesis, relies entirely on the measurements. In contrast, the second approach employs physical models such as finite element (FE) models that are designed based on mechanical principles. In times in which the real-time processing of digital twins for engineering structures becomes more and more realistic, model-based approaches for vibration-based SHM receive increasing attention. Data-driven strategies are still primarily used in vibration-based SHM, and they will remain appealing in situations where precise physical modeling appears cumbersome. Hence, the need for efficient, robust, and reliable data-driven techniques concerning all stages and hurdles of SHM that can prove themselves in practice will never vanish. In this regard, after over 25 years of research, the number of real-life validation studies is still surprisingly low. As for all SHM strategies, the difficulty concerning damage analysis increases with higher levels of realization. Beginning with the goal of detecting damage, SHM finally seeks to predict the remaining lifetime of a structure. The intermediate steps comprise the localization, classification, and assessment of damage. Without the existence of adequately calibrated physics-based models, the successful implementation of methods tackling the objectives beyond damage localization in an unsupervised data-driven scheme is questionable. The term ‘unsupervised’ refers to the fact that knowledge about the manifestation of damage is not available. Especially in civil engineering, this situation pertains in general and is considered in the present thesis. In data-driven SHM, where the area of structural alterations is narrowed down to adjacent sensors, damage localization suffers from the coarse spatial resolution of parsimonious data acquisition ...
