Damage Identification in Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Wavelet Transform of Modal Excitation Responses

This study focuses on identifying damage in reinforced concrete (RC) beams using time-domain modal testing and wavelet analysis. A numerical model of an RC beam was used to generate various damage scenarios with different severities and locations. Acceleration time histories were recorded for both d...
