Modeling and Monitoring of Damage in Grouted Joints
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present contribution is directed towards the concept of a reliable SHM system for grouted joints of the offshore wind turbines. It focuses on static and dynamic tests of a laboratory structure with a grouted joint, on a proper finite element modelling of its behaviour and damage progress. The entire structure as well as the joint itself is subjected to static and dynamic tests. The material and structural model is validated by comparison with experimental data and non-destructive testing of the joint. Then, suitable physical parameters to be monitored are identified and introduced into the structural model. Their real values are finally determined from the measurement data of static and dynamic laboratory tests by means of suitable identification techniques.

On the Use of Acoustic Emission and Digital Image Correlation for Welded Joints Damage Characterization
A series of tests have been conducted to investigate fatigue damage characterization in corroded welded steel plates using structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques. Acoustic Emission (AE) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique with potential applications for locating and monitoring fatigue cracks in service. In the present work, AE is implemented to characterize damage during crack e...

In the present work, structure health monitoring (SHM) of welded steel pipes was used to diagnosis their state via vibration based damage detection techniques. The dynamic quantities such as Frequency Response Functions (FRFs), mode shapes and modal parameters from structural vibration to detect damage were measured, set on linear averaging mode, with a maximum frequency of analysis of 3.2 kHz....

With the growing population and density in metropolitan areas, higher tendency to live in high-rise buildings, and increasing demand for parking lots, it seems necessary to excavate soil to construct underground spaces. During excavation work, as the height of the wall increases, special care should be taken to the wall stabilization to avoid any consequent damage including extensive property d...
متن کاملMathematical Modeling of Column-Base Connections under Monotonic Loading
Some considerable damage to steel structures during the Hyogo-ken Nanbu Earthquake occurred. Among them, many exposed-type column bases failed in several consistent patterns, such as brittle base plate fracture, excessive bolt elongation, unexpected early bolt failure, and inferior construction work, etc. The lessons from these phenomena led to the need for improved understanding of column base...

Structural health monitoring (SHM) systems operate online and test different materials using ultrasonic guided waves and piezoelectric smart materials. These systems are permanently installed on the structures and display information on the monitor screen. The user informs the engineers of the existing damage after observing signal loss which appears after damage is caused. In this paper health...
