Experimental Procedure to assess Damages of Welded Beams
Journal Title: Analele Universitatii "Eftimie Murgu" Resita. Fascicula de Inginerie - Year 2017, Vol 24, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper presents an experimental procedure to assess damages of welded beams, the weld being transversal to the longitudinal beam axis. It consists of comparing the natural frequencies in intact and damaged state, calculating the frequency shift due to damage and weigh the shifts against patterns derived a priori.
