INTRODUCTION Modl updaing chniqus basd on vibraion daa (.g., modal paramrs hav providd promising rsuls for damag idnificaion of civil srucurs. Modal paramrs such as naural frquncis and mod shaps can b accuraly idnifid from ambin vibraion or forcd vibraion ss. Howvr, h formr is mor araciv for opraional full-scal civil srucurs han h lar bcaus h forcd vibraion ss ofn rquir suspnding h srucur s opraion. In addiion, forcd vibraion ss ar no pracical for coninuous srucural halh monioring applicaions. Th fini lmn (FE modl updaing chniqus using h idnifid modal paramrs can ponially prdic h xisnc, locaion, and svriy of damag which is commonly dfind as a chang in h srucurs physical propris [1].

Th drminisic FE modl updaing mhods ar wll sablishd in h liraur [6-9], wih svral succssful applicaions o civil srucurs [10-16]. Th qualiy of srucural idnificaion rsuls obaind from h drminisic FE modl updaing mhods dpnds on (1 h accuracy and informaivnss of masurd vibraion daa (.g., idnifid modal paramrs, and ( h accuracy of h iniial FE modl. In pracic, h idnifid modal paramrs of opraional srucurs show significan variaions from s o s, spcially if h srucur is bing moniord ovr a long priod of im. Ths variaions can b du o masurmn nois, simaion rrors, and mos imporanly changing nvironmnal/ ambin condiions [17-4]. Modling rrors also add o h simaion uncrainis of idnificaion rsuls spcially for complx civil srucurs ha ar usually modld wih many idalizaions and simplificaions [5, 5-7]. Ths sourcs of variabiliy moivad rsarchrs o incorpora h undrlying srucural uncrainis hrough h probabilisic FE modl updaing approachs, which can idnify h updaing modl paramrs and hir simaion uncrainis. For rliabl and robus srucural halh monioring, i is imporan o provid a masur of confidnc (uncrainy on h damag idnificaion rsuls. Diffrn probabilisic damag idnificaion mhods basd on FE modl updaing hav bn usd in h liraur including Baysian mhods [8-31] and prurbaion basd mhods [3-35]. Filring mhods (.g., Kalman filrs hav also bn applid for onlin paramr idnificaion of srucural sysms basd on masurd inpu-oupu im hisoris [36, 37]. Th availabl Baysian modl updaing framworks can succssfully prdic h simaion uncrainis of h updaing paramrs (.g., srucural siffnss or mass, bu do no considr h inhrn variabiliy of hs paramrs du o diffrn sourcs of uncrainis such as changing ambin mpraur, mpraur gradin, wind spd, and raffic load. This papr implmns h concp of Hirarchical Baysian modling [38-40] o dvlop a nw probabilisic FE modl updaing procdur ha can prdic h oal uncrainy of h updaing modl paramrs, including h paramr simaion uncrainy and mor imporanly h inhrn variabiliy of updaing srucural paramrs. This proposd framwork is xndd for probabilisic damag idnificaion of civil srucurs. Scion rviws h mos commonly usd Baysian modl updaing framwork in h liraur, rfrrd o as classical Baysian modl updaing in his papr. Scion 3 inroducs h proposd Hirarchical Baysian modl updaing procdur. Th prformanc of h proposd mhod for srucural uncrainy quanificaion and damag idnificaion is valuad hrough a numrical applicaion in Scion 4. Th ffcs of modling rrors, incomplnss of modal daa, rror funcion corrlaions, and h numbr of daa ss usd in h updaing procss on h idnificaion rsuls ar invsigad. Finally, Scion 5 provids h conclusions of his work.. CLASSICAL BAYESIAN FE MODEL UPDATING FRAMEWORK.1. Rviw of h Framwork Daild and in-dph rviws on h framwork can b found in [41-43]. Th paprs by Bck [8], Bck and Kaafygiois [9], and Sohn and Law [30] ar h pionring ffors in h probabilisic FE modl updaing using h Baysian infrnc schm. In h pas dcad, his mhod has bn implmnd for idnificaion of svral srucural sysms [7, 31, 44-50].

Basd on h Bays horm h posrior (updad probabiliy disribuion funcion (PDF of h updaing srucural paramrs θ, and h modl rror paramrs, givn a singl daa s D can b xprssd as: p, p, p, whr pd θσ, is h so-calld liklihood funcion and, θσ D D θσ θσ (1 p θσ is h prior probabiliy. A common yp of masurd daa D in srucural idnificaion applicaions includs h idnifid sysm ignvalus (squars of circular naural frquncis and mod shaps. To formula h liklihood funcion, h rror funcions for a mod m ar dfind in Equaions ( and (3, and hy ar assumd o hav zro-man Gaussian disribuions: m m m( θ N 0, ( m Φ m amφm( θ Φ N 0, Σ Φ (3 m m Th idnifid ignvalus and mod shaps ar shown as λ and Φ, rspcivly. Modl calculad ignvalus and mod shaps ar shown by λθ ( and Φθ (. Plas no ha h idnifid mod shaps and h modl-calculad mod shaps a h masurd DOFs ar normalizd o hir uni lngh (i.., uni L norm. In all quaions of his papr, h modl calculad mod shaps Φθ ( conain only h componns a h masurd DOFs. am is h scaling facor of mod m and is s o b h do produc of h wo uni-normalizd mod shaps T Φ m. Φm( θ. Th liklihood funcion can b wrin as Equaion (4 by assuming ha h idnifid modal paramrs ar saisically indpndn, i.., knowing h valu of any obsrvd modal paramr dos no provid any informaion rgarding h probabiliy of obsrving ohr modal paramrs.

In mos of h Baysian FE modl updaing applicaions, no corrlaion is considrd for h rror funcions of Equaions ( and (3. In [41, 54], his saisical indpndnc assumpion is rgardd as h indpndncy of informaion and no as an inhrn propry of h sysm. Howvr, as mniond in [55], accouning for h corrlaions bwn h rror funcions can affc h idnificaion rsuls. In h cas of having N indpndn numbr of masurd daa ss, h liklihood funcion of Equaion (4 can b xndd as: 3

Th posrior probabiliy disribuions of h updaing paramrs can b obaind numrically by gnraing Markov Chain Mon Carlo (MCMC sampls from h posrior PDF [44, 45, 48, 50, 53, 56] or analyically hrough asympoic approximaions [7, 31, 46, 47, 49, 51]. If MCMC sampling chniqus ar usd, h disribuion of h sampls from h posrior PDF can provid a masur of paramr simaion uncrainy. If an asympoic approximaion is usd, h covarianc marix of updaing modl paramrs can b simad as h invrs Hssian of Log p θσ, D a h opimum of h updaing paramrs... Inrpraion of h Esimad Covarianc Marix Alhough h classical Baysian modl updaing procdur has bn succssfully implmnd for idnificaion of modl paramrs and opimal modl class slcion, h simad covarianc marix dos no provid h oal variabiliy of updaing modl paramrs. This covarianc marix only rprsns h paramr simaion uncrainy which will dcras wih incrasing numbr of daa ss [30, 53, 57], rfrrd o as nois miigaion in [31]. Th simad uncrainis of h modl paramrs from a frqunis approach, howvr, can provid h ovrall variabiliy of updaing paramrs and will convrg wih incrasing numbr of daa ss. A frqunis framwork can considr h inhrn variabiliy of h updaing modl paramrs and hus h propris of h corrsponding disribuion can b simad. Saisics of h updaing paramrs in a frqunis approach ar simad from h drminisically idnifid paramrs corrsponding o diffrn s daa [, 58, 59]. In [58], i is shown ha in h absnc of modling rrors h simad man and covarianc marix from h Baysian and h frqunis framworks can b rlad. In applicaions o civil srucurs, h physical modling paramrs such as mass, damping, siffnss, or boundary condiions show variaions du o h changing nvironmnal and ambin condiions [17-3]. For xampl, mpraur variaions affc h srucural boundary condiions and h marial propris, highr wind spd ofn rsuls in rducd ffciv siffnss, or variaions of raffic load (gnrally liv loads will affc h mass of h srucur. Ths variaions will rsul in diffrn modal paramrs from s o s. In ohr words, h N daa ss ha ar usd in Equaion (5 ar collcd from a srucur wih im-varying propris. Th following singl-dgr-of-frdom (SDOF xampl is dsignd o illusra ha h simad sandard dviaion in h classical Baysian approach undrsimas h oal uncrainy of updaing paramrs.

Th Hirarchical Baysian FE modl updaing is proposd in his papr o achiv his goal. 3. HIERARCHICAL BAYESIAN FE MODEL UPDATING Rsarchrs in h social and bhavioral scincs hav invsigad mhods o ra hirarchical daa wih diffrn lvls of variabls in h sam saisical modl. For xampl, h hirarchical daa for sociological survy analysis includ masurmns from individuals wih diffrn hisorical, gographic, or conomic variabls. To his nd, h hirarchical modling was proposd o accoun for h diffrn grouping or ims a which daa ar masurd [40]. Similar analogy can b mad for h collcd masurmns from a srucur undr diffrn ambin and nvironmnal condiions. This framwork has bn rcnly implmnd for an uncrainy quanificaion applicaion in srucural dynamics [60]. In h proposd Hirarchical Baysian modl updaing, h srucural paramrs ar assumd o b disribud according o a probabiliy modl; a runcad Gaussian disribuion (no ngaiv siffnss is assumd in his sudy, i.., θ N μθ, Σ θ. Th rror funcion vcor, dfind as h diffrnc bwn h idnifid and modl-calculad modal paramrs, can b rprsnd as a mulivaria Gaussian disribuion: 5

Ths rrors ar dfind as h following for mod m: m m( θ 1 m Φ a Φ ( θ (1 Φm m m m Givn h rror funcion of Equaion (10, h posrior probabiliy disribuion of h updaing paramrs can b xprssd by Equaions (13 for a singl daa s from s. μθ, Σθ, θ, μ, Σ λ, Φ λ, Φi θ, μ, Σ θ μθ, Σθ μθ, Σθ, μ, Σ p p p p (13 No h diffrncs bwn h rror funcions givn by Equaion (10 and Equaions (-3. Th firs diffrnc is h sub-indx for h srucural paramrs and h idnifid modal paramrs, which spcifis h valus of updaing srucural paramr during h collcion of daa s. Also, h rror funcions ar no assumd uncorrlad and wih zro mans. In h prsnc of modling rrors, prior assumpions for h prdicion rror corrlaions [55] and hir variancs [47, 54] affc h idnificaion rsuls. Thrfor, updaing h prdicion rror paramrs provids a mor robus idnificaion. Th prior probabiliis ar spcifid in wo hirarchical sags of pθ μθ, Σ θ and hypr-prior probabiliy disribuion pμθ, Σθ, μ, Σ.

Th graphical rprsnaion of h proposd Hirarchical Baysian modling is shown in Figur 1. Non-informaiv priors ar assumd for μ θ and p μθ, μ 1. Dpnding on h slcion of updaing srucural paramrs, i is ofn rasonabl o assum no corrlaion bwn hs paramrs and hrfor h covarianc marix Σ θ can b prsnd as a diagonal marix: 1 p Np μ, i.., Σ Diag θ,,...,,..., (15 wih Np = numbr of updaing srucural paramrs in θ.
