Operational modal identification technique based on independent component analysis
Modal parameter identification is an important content for the research on dynamic behavior of civil engineering structures. For the conventional modal parameter identification techniques, excitation signal and response signal are necessary. But excitations can not be measured for structures under natural loading conditions, or excited by random forces. So, the operational modal parameter identification approaches are developing to identify structural modal parameters by using vibration response signal directly. In this paper, a new method for modal parameter identification depending on ambient excitation response signal is proposed based on independent component analysis (ICA). For modal coordinates independent of each other, ICA can extract modal coordinates of structure and estimate mode shape matrix using vibration response signal directly. The free vibration responses can be obtained by random decrement technique (RDT) from modal coordinates which are random processes, and then the natural frequencies and damping ratios are calculated by Hilbert transform. Numerical simulation results indicate that this method is effective and suitable for output-only structural modal parameter identification.
