Natural frequency based damage identification of beams using piezoelectric materialsZhao, Shengjie 24 December 2015 (has links)
Following the studies of natural frequency based damage detection methods, an advanced technique for damage detection and localization in beam-type structures using a vibration characteristic tuning procedure is developed by an optimal design of piezoelectric materials. Piezoelectric sensors and actuators are mounted on the surface of the host beam to generate excitations for the tuning via a feedback process. The excitations induced by the piezoelectric effect are used to magnify the effect of the damage on the change of the natural frequencies of the damaged structure to realize the high detection sensitivity. Based on the vibration characteristic tuning procedure, a scan-tuning methodology for damage detection and localization is proposed. From analytical simulations, both crack and delamination damage in the beams are detected and located with over 20% change in the natural frequencies. Finite element method (FEM) simulations are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. / October 2016
