description Shear deformation plays an important role in certain structures, and neglecting shear deformation can affect the accuracy of structural response. This paper proposes a non-destructive damage evaluation method that considers shear deformation, based on static response, for identifying corrosion in beam-like structures. The influence of shear deformation on nodal displacement for simply supported beams with different cross-sections was analyzed. The results indicate that even small errors yield inaccurate identification results when neglecting shear deformation. To solve this problem, analytical displacements of the structure were determined based on the Timoshenko beam theory, and the objective function was established. Additionally, the damage identification results were obtained by minimizing the objective function using the interior point method. Several progressively complex examples were used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in identifying damage in beam-like structures.
