Analysis of measurement and simulation errors in structural system identification by observability techniques
During the process of structural system identification, errors are unavoidable. This paper analyzes the effects of measurement and simulation errors in structural system identification based on observability techniques. To illustrate the symbolic approach of this method a simply supported beam is analyzed step‐by‐step. This analysis provides, for the very first time in the literature, the parametric equations of the estimated parameters. The effects of several factors, such as errors in a particular measurement or in the whole measurement set, load location, measurement location or sign of the errors, on the accuracy of the identification results are also investigated. It is found that error in a particular measurement increases the errors of individual estimations, and this effect can be significantly mitigated by introducing random errors in the whole measurement set. The propagation of simulation errors when using observability techniques is illustrated by two structures with different measurement sets and loading cases. A fluctuation of the observed parameters around the real values is proved to be a characteristic of this method. Also, it is suggested that a sufficient combination of different load cases should be utilized to avoid the inaccurate estimation at the location of low curvature zones.
