Challenges in applying vibration-based damage detection to highway bridge structures
Due to the growth of wireless sensors, data loggers, and signal processing technologies, there has been a growing interest in the detection of damage to civil engineering infrastructures during the previous two decades. However, several challenges are encountered when applying this method to real civil engineering structures in operating and environmental conditions. The literature reviewed in this comprehensive review of vibration-based damage detection (VBDD) methods focuses on the long-term health monitoring of highway bridges. After providing a succinct summary of structural damage, damage detection methods, and the VBDD method, this article presents a state-of-the-art review of the challenges in using vibration-based damage detection methods on civil engineering infrastructures. Excitation techniques, modal parameter identification, data collection time, data communication, model-based damage detection, data-based damage detection, problems with handling big data, temperature influence, and boundary condition effects are some of the difficulties that might be taken into account for future research needs and directions. The article concludes that mode shape-based damage identification requires several dozen measurement locations, which is too complicated for the experimental study procedure due to the complexity of deployed surface-attached sensor networks, and the reliability of the ambient excitation method for large civil engineering infrastructures for early-stage damage detection is still in question.
