A novel method for structural diagnosis based on passing vehicle response

An output-only method for structural diagnosis based on passing vehicle response is proposed in this article. Theoretical derivation reveals that the area of displacement response from only one sensor when vehicle loads pass over a bridge is in relation to global bending stiffness. Therefore, it can...
