A Probabilistic Damage Identification Method for Shear Structure Components Based on Cross-Entropy Optimizations

A probabilistic damage identification method for shear structure components is presented. The method uses the extracted modal frequencies from the measured dynamical responses in conjunction with a representative finite element model. The damage of each component is modeled using a stiffness multipl...
