Die messtechnische Strukturüberwachung von Brücken hat das Potenzial, sich langfristig als wichtiges ergänzendes Instrument zur kontinuierlichen Zustandsbewertung zu etablieren. Die jüngere Forschung auf diesem Gebiet setzt verstärkt auf Signalmerkmale unterschiedlicher Sensortypen sowie auf Methoden des maschinellen Lernens. Daran anknüpfend wird im Teil 2 dieses Aufsatzes erläutert, wie Bauwerksschäden mithilfe der Anomalieerkennung mit Modellen des maschinellen Lernens identifiziert werden können. Im Teil 1 wurde dazu ein Signalmerkmal vorgestellt, das auf Einflusslinien basiert: die R-Signatur. Durch Simulationen kann gezeigt werden, dass die R-Signatur deutlich empfindlicher auf einen Bauwerksschaden reagiert als die betrachteten Eigenfrequenzen. Im Teil 2 wird ein Verfahren zur Anomalieerkennung beschrieben, das Bauwerksschäden durch eine Veränderung der Korrelationsstruktur der R-Signatur identifiziert. Das zugrunde liegende Datenmodell nutzt dabei die Hauptkomponentenanalyse. Der vorgestellte Ansatz wurde mit den Messdaten einer Straßenbrücke verifiziert.

Environmental effects are a significant challenge in guided wave structural health monitoring systems. These effects distort signals and increase the likelihood of false alarms. Many research papers have studied mitigation strategies for common variations in guided wave datasets reproducible in a lab, such as temperature and stress. There are fewer studies and strategies for detecting damage under more unpredictable outdoor conditions. This article proposes a long short-term principal component analysis reconstruction method to detect synthetic damage under highly variational environments, like precipitation, freeze, and other conditions. The method does not require any temperature or other compensation methods and is tested by approximately seven million guided wave measurements collected over 2 years. Results show that our method achieves an area under curve score of near 0.95 when detecting synthetic damage under highly variable environmental conditions.

Natural Change

Damage-sensitive features such as natural frequencies are widely used for structural health monitoring; however, they are also influenced by the environmental condition. To address the environmental effect, principal component analysis is widely used. Before performing principal component analysis, the training data should be defined for the normal condition (baseline model) under environmental variability. It is worth noting that the natural change of the normal condition may exist due to an intrinsic behavior of the structural system. Without accounting for the natural change of the normal condition, numerous false alarms occur. However, the natural change of the normal condition cannot be known in advance. Although the description of the normal condition has a significant influence on the monitoring performance, it has received much less attention. To capture the natural change of the normal condition and detect the damage simultaneously, an adaptive statistical process monitoring using online learning algorithm is proposed for output-only structural health monitoring. The novelty aspect of the proposed method is the adaptive learning capability by moving the window of the recent samples (from normal condition) to update the baseline model. In this way, the baseline model can reflect the natural change of the normal condition in environmental variability. To handle both change rate of the normal condition and non-linear dependency of the damage-sensitive features, a variable moving window strategy is also proposed. The variable moving window strategy is the block-wise linearization method using k-means clustering based on Linde–Buzo–Gray algorithm and Bayesian information criterion. The proposed method and two existing methods (static linear principal component analysis and incremental linear principal component analysis) were applied to a full-scale bridge structure, which was artificially damaged at the end of the long-term monitoring. Among the three methods, the proposed method is the only successful method to deal with the non-linear dependency among features and detect the structural damage timely.

The structural health monitoring relies on the continuous observation of a dynamic system over time to identify its actual condition, detect abnormal behaviors, and predict future states. The regular changes in environmental factors have been reported as one of the main challenges for the application of structural health monitoring systems. These influences in the structural responses are in general nonlinear, affecting the damage-sensitive features in the most varied forms. The usual process to remove these normal changes is referred to as data normalization. In that regard, principal component analysis is probably the most studied algorithm in structural health monitoring, having numerous versions to learn strong nonlinear normal changes. However, in most cases, not all variability is properly accounted for via the existing nonlinear principal component analysis approaches, resulting in poor damage detection and quantification performances. In this article, a new paradigm based on deep principal component analysis, rooted in the deep learning field, is presented to overcome these limitations. This approach extracts the most salient underlying feature distributions by stacking multiple feedforward neural networks trained to learn an identity mapping of the input variables, where the network inputs are reproduced into the outputs. Similar to the traditional nonlinear principal component analysis–based approach, our approach identifies a nonlinear output-only model of an undamaged structure by comprising modal features into an internal bottleneck layer, which implicitly represents the independent environmental factors. The proposed technique is validated through the application on a progressively damaged prestressed concrete bridge and a three-span suspension bridge. The experimental results demonstrate that capturing the most slight nonlinear variations in the data can lead to improved data normalization and, consequently, better damage detection and quantification performances.

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is an important technique used to preserve many types of structures in the short and long run, using sensor networks to continuously gather the desired data. However, this causes a strong impact in the data size to be stored and processed. A common solution to this is using compression algorithms, where the level of data compression should be adequate enough to allow the correct damage identification. In this work, we use the data sets from a laboratory three-story structure to evaluate the performance of common compression algorithms which, then, are combined with damage detection algorithms used in SHM. We also analyze how the use of Independent Component Analysis, a common technique to reduce noise in raw data, can assist the detection performance. The results showed that Piecewise Linear Histogram combined with Nonlinear PCA have the best trade-off between compression and detection for small error thresholds while Adaptive PCA with Principal Component Analysis perform better with higher values.
