Gaussian mixture model for time series-based structural damage detection
Journal Title: Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science - Year 2012, Vol 19, Issue 4
Abstract
In this paper, a time series-based damage detection algorithm is proposed using Gaussian mixture model (GMM) and expectation maximization (EM) framework. The vibration time series from the structure are modelled as the autoregressive (AR) processes. The first AR coefficients are used as a feature vector for novelty detection. To test the efficacy of the damage detection algorithm, it has been tested on the pseudo-experimental data obtained from the FEM model of the ASCE benchmark frame structure. Results suggest that the presented approach is able to detect mainly major and moderate damage patterns.

Coupling of CFD and lumped parameter codes for thermal-hydraulic simulations of reactor containment
The work deals with thermal-hydraulic analyses of a pressurized water reactor containment response to accidents caused by a rupture of primary circuit. The in-house system computer code HEPCAL-AD and CFD ANSYS Fluent hav...
The analysis of long-term borehole heat exchanger system exploitation
The key issue in designing borehole heat exchangers (BHE) is the long-term performance of the ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems. The performance directly reflects economic profitability and depends on a large number...
Probabilistic multiscale analysis of inelastic localized failure in solid mechanics
In this work, we discuss the role of probability in providing the most appropriate multiscale based uncertainty quantification for the inelastic nonlinear response of heterogeneous materials undergoing localized failure....
Sequential stochastic identification of elastic constants using Lamb waves and particle filters
Sequential stochastic identification of elastic parameters of thin aluminum plates using Lamb waves is proposed. The identification process is formulated as a Bayesian state estimation problem in which the elastic consta...
