Most existing health monitoring methodologies require direct measurement of input excitation for implementation. However, in many cases, there is no easy way to measure these inputs or alternatively, to externally excite the structure. Therefore, SHM methods based on ambient vibration have become important in civil engineering. In this paper, an approach is proposed based on the Damage Location Vector (DLV) method to handle the ambient vibration case. Here, this flexibility-matrix-based damage localization method is combined with a modal expansion technique to eliminate the need to measure the input excitation. As a by-product of this approach, in addition to determining the location of the damage, an estimate of the damage extent also can be determined. Finally, a numerical example analyzing a truss structure with limited sensors and noisy measurement is provided to verify the efficacy of the proposed approach. Keywords Flexibility matrix, Damage Location Vector method, Modal expansion, Natural Excitation Technique, Eigenvalue Realization Algorithm.. Introduction Quantitative and objective condition assessment for effective infrastructure preservation has long been a subject of interest within the engineering community. To achieve this objective, methodologies focused on the health monitoring of structural systems have been under development in recent years. The first implementations of SHM appear to have taken place in offshore structures and bridges. One class of damage identification methods employed for SHM measures the change in frequencies to determine structural damage. Vandiver (975) examined the change in resonant frequencies due to the damage in structural elements. Most recently, Cha and Tuck-lee () examined the change in frequency response data; this information was then used to update the structural parameters. The change in mode shapes has also been used. West (984) was perhaps the first to systematically use the mode shape information for localization of structural damage without employing a prior finite element model. Another such technique takes advantage of the
2 change in the dynamically-measured flexibility matrix. Pandey and Biswas (994, 995) presented a damage detection and localization method based on the flexibility changes in the structure. Bernal (a) computed a set of load vectors from the flexibility matrix change, designated as damage location vectors to localize damage. Although these methods can be effective, most require measurement of the input excitation and at least one co-located sensor actuator pair in the system to obtain mass-normalized modes (Alvin and Park, 994). In numerous cases, the use of an impulse hammer or a rotating unbalanced vibrator as an exciter is impossible. Ambient vibration has become an important source of excitation for SHM. Bernal (b) presented an initial study to extend the Damage Location Vector (DLV) method (Bernal a) to handle the ambient vibration case. In this paper, a new approach that extends the DLV method to tackle the ambient vibration case is proposed. For the case of ambient vibration, no inputs are known, so the flexibility matrix cannot be constructed directly using existing approaches. This problem is circumvented via a modal expansion technique with proposed modifications, allowing the flexibility matrix to be constructed under ambient vibration condition, and then the DLV method to be applied. As a byproduct of the proposed approach, in addition to the location of the damage, an estimate of the damage extent also can be obtained. Appropriate strategies for damage localization are proposed for single and multiple damage scenarios. This paper is organized as follows: First, motivation for flexibility-matrix-based approach is provided and the DLV method is introduced. A description on how to employ the Natural Excitation Technique (NExT) (James et al. 993) in conjunction with the Eigenvalue Realization Algorithm (ERA) (Juang and Pappa, 985) to obtain the modal parameters for the ambient vibration case is then presented (Dyke et al. ). The modal expansion technique (Lipkins and Vandeurzen, 987) is then introduced and modifications to select the analytical model for this modal expansion technique are proposed. The flexibility matrix can then be constructed; and, for the single damage scenario, the DLV method can be applied without difficulty. For the multiple damage scenario, a detection approach with iterative searching is provided. Finally, a numerical example that analyzes a truss structure with limited sensors and noisy measurement is included to verify the efficacy of the proposed approach.. Problem Formulation and Solution Approach Health monitoring methods based on the flexibility matrix have recently been shown promising. An inverse relationship exists between the flexibility matrix and the square of the modal frequencies; therefore, the flexibility matrix is not sensitive to high frequency modes. This unique characteristic allows the use of a small number of truncated modes to construct a reasonably accurate representation of the flexibility matrix. Toksoy and Aktan (994) and Pandey and Biswas (994, 995) employed the flexibility matrix to detect damage in structures. Most recently, Bernal (a) proposed a flexibility-based damage localization method.. Motivation for Flexibility Matrix-Based Approach Consider the equations of motion of a linear structure M{ x } + C{ x } + K{ x} { f} () The orthogonal property of mode shapes with respect to the mass and stiffness matrix leads to M ϕ T Mϕ and K ϕ T Kϕ ()
3 in which M modal mass matrix; and K modal stiffness matrix. The square of the modal frequency can be expressed in a matrix sense as ω Combining Eqs. () and (3) leads to ω M K ϕ T Kϕ ϕ T Mϕω (4) Therefore, the stiffness matrix can be obtained by K ( ϕ T ) vω vϕ Mϕv ω v ϕ T M (5) where v diagonal matrix with the mass-normalized indices on the main diagonal given by v ( ϕ T Mϕ) T T ( ϕ mmm ϕ m + ϕ u Mu ϕ u ) (6) In Eq. (6), the subscript m designates the measured DOFs (i.e. sensor locations); and u designates the unmeasured DOFs. From the relationship between the stiffness and flexibility matrix F K, the flexibility matrix is derived from Eq. (5) F ( ϕv )ω ( ϕv ) T and the flexibility matrix at the sensor locations can be written as F m ( ϕ m v )ω ( ϕ m v ) T Equations (5) and (7) indicate the different influences of the various frequency modes on the stiffness and flexibility matrices, respectively. The influence of the modes on stiffness matrix K increases with ω, whereas for the flexibility matrix F, the influence decreases with ω. To quantitatively see this effect, consider the 4-DOF planar truss given in Fig., which will be used for the numerical example later in this paper. The truncated stiffness matrix K n, which contains the contribution of the first n modes, can be derived from Eq. (5) and is written as n T K n Mϕ j v j ω j ϕj M, n N (9) j (3) (7) (8) x 3 m 3 m y 4.5 m x Element 6: node 6 7 Element 8: node 9 Element : node 4 Element 3: node 3 Accelerometers in y direction White noise excitations Fig.. 44-bar planar truss Accelerometer in x direction of node 3

The first is the -norm given by the maximum singular value, designated by s, of the difference matrix K K n s{ K K () n } The second norm calculated is the Frobenius norm K K n F ( K K n ) ij Figure shows these two error norms, which are normalized to have a value of one for n. As can be seen here, nearly all of the modes are required to obtain a reasonably accurate representation of the stiffness matrix. Because experimentally obtaining the higher modes of a structure is often quite challenging, stiffness matrix-based health monitoring strategies may be difficult to implement in practice. Similarly, the truncated flexibility matrix can be derived from Eq. (7) as () T F n ϕ j v j ω j ϕj, n N () The counterparts to the error norms defined in Eqs. () and () are then F n j F n F F F n N N i j N F n s{ F F n } N i j These two norms are shown in Fig. 3, again normalized to have a value of one for n. As can be seen, only a few modes are required to achieve reasonable accuracy in the flexibility matrix. This fact indicates significant potential for health monitoring and damage detection approaches ( F F n ) ij (3) (4). -Norm. Frobenius Norm n K-K K n F F K-K K Number of Modes Number of Modes Fig..

The DLV Method The Damage Location Vector (DLV) method, first proposed by Bernal (a), is based upon determination of a special set of vectors, the so-called damage location vectors (DLVs). The DLVs have the property that when they are applied to the structure as static forces at the sensor locations, no stress is induced in the damaged elements. This unique characteristic can be employed to localize structural damage. For a linear structure, the flexibility matrices at sensor locations are constructed from measured data for the case before and after damage and denoted as F u and F d, respectively (note that for conciseness, the subscript m used in Eq. (8) to indicate that the matrices correspond to the measured DOFs will be omitted in the sequel). First, all of the linear-independent load vectors L are collected, which satisfy the following relationship F d L F u L or F L ( F d F u )L (5) This equation implies that the load vectors L produce the same displacements at the sensor locations before and after damage. From the definition, the DLVs are seen to also satisfy Eq. (5); that is, because the DLVs induce no stress in the damaged structural elements, the damage of those elements does not affect the displacements at the sensor locations. Therefore, the DLVs are indeed the vectors in L. To calculate L, the singular value decomposition (SVD) is empoyed. The SVD of the matrix leads to F F USV T S U U V V T (6) or, equivalently F V F V U S (7) From Eq. (7), one obtains F V (8) 5
6 Eqs. (5) and (8) indicate that L V, i.e., DLVs can be obtained from the SVD of the difference matrix F. In Eq. (6), because of noise and computational errors, the singular values corresponding to V are generally not exactly zero. To select the DLVs from the SVD of the matrix, an index svn was proposed by Bernal (a) and defined as F in which s i the ith singular value of the matrix F ; c i constant that is used to normalize the maximum stress in the structural element, which is induced by the static load c i V i, to have a value of one; and V i is the right singular vector of F. Each of the DLVs is then applied to an undamaged analytical model of the structure, and the stress in each structural element is calculated. If an element has zero normalized accumulative stress σ j, then this element is a possible candidate of damage. The normalized accumulative stress for the jth element is defined as where s svn i c i i max( s k c k ) σ j σ j k σ j max( σ k ) n i k In Eq. (), σ ij stress in the jth element induced by the ith DLV; σ j cumulative stress in the jth element. In practice, the normalized accumulative stresses induced by DLVs in the damaged elements may not be exactly zero due to noise and uncertainties. Reasonable thresholds should be chosen to select the damaged elements..3 NExT and ERA To apply the DLV method to locate the damage, the flexibility matrix needs to be constructed first from the measured data. The flexibility matrix at the sensor locations can be constructed from the modal parameters. In this paper, these modal parameters are obtained using the Natural Excitation Technique (NExT) in conjunction with the Eigenvalue Realization Algorithm (ERA). For an underdamped linear structure, James et al. (993) showed that under stationary white noise excitations, the cross-correlation function of any two outputs x i and x j has the following form R ij ( T) N r Equation () indicates that the auto- or cross-correlation function has the same form as the free response of a linear structure. This characteristic of the correlation function allows application of time-domain system realization algorithms to estimate the modal frequencies and modal shapes, which is the basic idea behind the NExT (James, et al. 993). Dyke et al. () also pointed out σ ij max( σ ik ) k r r ϕ ia j m r ζ r r r r exp ω r ( nt) sin( ωdt + θ ) ω d (9) () () () 6
7 that because the modal shapes of the acceleration are the same as those of the displacement, acceleration measurements can be used by the NExT to obtain the displacement mode shapes. To apply the NExT approach, the first step is to measure structural responses. The auto- and cross-spectral density functions of these responses can then be calculated. Subsequently, the inverse Fourier transform is applied to obtain the auto- and cross-correlation functions, which are in turn used by the ERA to get the modal parameters. To obtain the desired modal parameters, the reference output selected in calculating correlation functions should include information on all modes of interest (Dyke et al. )..4 Modal Expansion for Single Damage Case In practice, the number of measured DOFs are usually smaller than the total number of DOFs of the structure; and not all modes are identified. As can be seen from Eqs. (6) and (7), the matrix v needs to be determined to construct the flexibility matrix. Because calculation of the matrix v requires information regarding both the measured and unmeasured DOFs, a modal expansion technique is required to obtain the mode shape information for the unmeasured DOFs. Bernal () has shown that when the input excitation is measured, and there is at least one co-located sensor and actuator pair, the flexibility matrix at sensor locations can be determined solely from modal information at sensor locations. However, this is not the case when inputs are unknown (e.g., the ambient vibration case). The modal expansion method suggested by Lipkins and Vandeurzen (987) is applied herein. In this approach, an analytical model representing the structure is first developed. The equation employed for modal expansion then can be written as E [ ϕ m ] n p [ ] N n ϕ u E ( ) p A [ ϕ m ] n l [ ] N n ϕ u A λ l p ( ) l In Eq. (3), subscripts outside of the brackets denote the dimension of the matrices. For conciseness, these subscripts will not be shown again in the sequel. Equivalent to Eq. (3), we have ϕ A E A [ ϕ m ] ϕ m E A [ ]λ [ ϕ u ] [ ϕ u ]λ in which mode shapes obtained from the analytical model; experimental mode shapes; N number of DOFs of the structure; n number of measured DOFs (i.e., number of sensors); p number of identified mode shapes; l number of analytical mode shapes for modal expansion; and λ coefficient matrix. As long as n l, the coefficient matrix λ can be obtained from Eq. (4) in a least-squares sense as λ [ ] T A ( [ ϕ m ]) A [ ϕ m ] T E [ ϕ m ] ϕ m A ϕ u E Mode shapes at unmeasured DOFs, i.e., [ ], can then easily be computed from Eq. (4). Subsequently, the flexibility matrix at the sensor locations can be constructed by Eq. (8). In this paper, the number of analytical mode shapes [ ϕ A ] is set equal to the number of identified mode shapes [ ϕ E ]; that is to say, l p. From Eq. (3), we see that experimental mode shapes are presumed as a linear combination of analytical mode shapes. One way to select these analytical mode shapes for a given analytical model is based on the Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC), suggested by Ewins (985), which is defined as ϕ E (3) (4) (5) 7
8 MAC { ϕ E } i ϕ A { } i{ }j (, { } j ) (6) ϕ E T E { } i{ ϕ } i ϕ A T { } j{ ϕ A } j Analytical mode shapes with a MAC value close to. will be selected. Then, the Total Modal Assurance Criterion (TMAC) can be used to determine the analytical model, which yields the analytical mode shapes in Eq. (3) p The key question then lies in determining exactly how to employ the TMAC to select the analytical model, denoted as the damaged analytical model (DAM). First, the undamaged analytical model is constructed. Then the undamaged analytical model with one element damaged will be selected as the DAM. There are two steps to follow in finally choosing the DAM. The first step attempts to determine which element, if damaged, may generate the DAM. In this step, each element is damaged to a few different damage extents (for example, 8 evenly-distributed damage extents). Results are compared, and the analytical model (e.g., the i th element is damaged) with the highest TMAC value is chosen. In the second step, a wide range of damage extents (for example, damage extents) is evaluated for the i th element alone to choose the damage extent corresponding to the highest TMAC. After these two steps, i.e., selecting the damage element and then the damage extent, the DAM is fixed. Mode shapes at unmeasured DOFs then can be calculated by Eq. (4). The flexibility matrix at the sensor locations can be obtained easily from Eq. (8). After the pre- and post-damage flexibility matrices are obtained, the DLV method can be applied to locate the damaged element in the structure. Note, however, that if the damaged elements indicated by the DLV method do not include the damage element selected in the DAM, the DAM corresponding to the next highest TMAC value then must be selected. This step is important, as the DAM that carries the correct damaged element does not necessarily produce the highest TMAC value because of noise and uncertainties. Additionally, TMAC values reflect only changes in mode shapes, while the DLV method includes both frequency and mode shape information through the flexibility matrix. Also, assuming the analytical model is reasonably accurate, if the DAM includes the correct damaged element, then the DLV method will indicate the correct damaged element. In summary, the damage element selected in the DAM is detected as the real damage location only when it is also indicated by the DLV method..5 Multiple Damage Case At this point, the proposed approach identifies only one damaged element in the structure. For the multiple damage case, iterative searching is necessary. In this case, one of the damaged elements is identified based on the approach outlined above. Then the identified DAM is denoted as the new baseline model (undamaged analytical model), and the above approach is repeated to detect the next damaged element. The remaining problem lies in determining when to stop this iterative searching. An idea proposed here is based on the fact that the DAM with the same number of damaged elements as the damaged structure should have more information than others. An index, so-called Averaged Highest TMAC value (AHT- MAC) is proposed here as the flag ϕ E T ϕ A E A TMAC MAC( { ϕ m } i, { ϕ m } i ) i (7) 8
9 in which HTMAC the highest TMAC value observed when the j th j element of DAM is damaged; and N E total number of elements in the DAM. If the index AHTMAC for a new search is smaller than the previous one, the iterative searching should stop. 3. Numerical Example The proposed detection approach is demonstrated using a planar truss structure shown in Fig. (note that a similar truss was considered by Bernal (a)). In this numerical example, limited sensors are employed (9 sensors compared with 4 DOFs), and a 5% RMS noise is added to the measured outputs. A Matlab finite element model consisting of 44 bars, nodes, and 4 DOFs is developed. Elements are connected at pinned joints, each having two DOFs. The simulated excitations are independent band-limited white noises applied in the y direction at nodes 5 and 7. Outputs (9 accelerations) are collected in the y direction at nodes [, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, ] and in the x direction at node. The acceleration in the y direction of node 4 is selected as a reference output to obtain the spectral density functions when employing the NExT. To simulate the ambient vibration case, inputs are not collected. Two categories of damages are considered: Case : Single damage scenario 5% stiffness reduction at a single element. Case : Multiple damage scenario 3% stiffness reduction in elements 8 and. First, the modal parameters are obtained using the NExT and the ERA. Here, the first natural frequencies are identified when element 6 has, 5%, and 3% damage. These results are compared with the exact solution from the finite element model in Table, which shows that this Table : Comparison of identified natural frequencies when element 6 is damaged Exact Results AHTMAC Results from NExT & ERA Undamaged 5% a 3% b Undamaged 5% a 3% b * c * c * c a 5% stiffness reduction. b 3% stiffness reduction. c Second mode is missed in identification. N E N HTMAC j E j (8) 9
10 Magnitude (db) nd Mode - Acceleration in x direction of node Acceleration in y direction of node 5 identification approach is quite accurate. As noted in Table, the second mode is not identified. This result is because the contribution of the second mode to the y direction response is too small to be captured. Figure 4 clearly illustrates this phenomenon, in which the power spectral density function of the acceleration in the x direction (without noise) has a clear second mode ( Hz), while the result for the acceleration in the y direction does not. 3. Single Damage Scenario: 5% Stiffness Reduction Once the modal parameters are obtained, the TMAC is applied to find the DAM for use in modal expansion. The damage detection results when using the highest TMAC value are listed in Table for damage in various element. Due to the limited space, only results for damage of selected elements are listed. Results for this damage level in other elements were similar to these. The table shows that, in this single damage case, most of the selected DAMs corresponding to the Table : Single damage case: detection results for selected damaged elements (using the highest TMAC value) Real Damaged Element a Frequency (Hz) The DAM Fig. 4.

Case : element 3 damaged highest TMAC value have a damaged element that is consistent with the candidate damage locations indicated by the DLV method; that is, the method correctly identifies the damage location. However, some of the selected DAMs are not consistent with damage locations predicted by the DLV method. An iterative procedure, i.e., re-selecting the DAM that corresponds to the next highest TMAC value and repeating the comparison, is necessary. This procedure is continued until the damage element in the DAM corresponds to the damage element indicated by the DLV method. After a few iterations, the correct damaged element is identified. Figure 5 provides the normalized accumulative stress indicated by the DLVs in each element for the case when element 6 is damaged. These results clearly indicates that element 6 is the dam-

Case : elements 8 and damaged aged location. In this case, the DAM corresponding to the highest TMAC value is consistent with the candidate damage locations indicated by the DLV method. In Table, the case with damage in elements, 5 or 3 represents the more general situation; that is, the damaged element selected in the DAM corresponding to the highest TMAC value is not consistent with the damage locations indicated by the DLV method. However, following the iterative procedure described previously, the damaged element in the structure, in the DAM, and indicated by the DLV method coincide. Results for the case with damage in element 3 are shown in Fig. 6. Figure 6a displays the results with the DAM corresponding to the highest TMAC value. The DAM indicates a 6% stiffness reduction in element 7. All normalized accumulative stresses are relatively large, and there is no definitive indication on which element is damaged. Figure 6b displays the converged results. In this case, the DAM corresponding the third-highest TMAC value has a 9% stiffness reduction in element 3. Figure 6b shows that element 3 has a relatively small normalized accumulative stress. The damaged element is predicted correctly. 3. Case : Multiple Damage Scenario In this case, elements 8 and are both given 3% stiffness reduction. As discussed previously, for the multiple damage scenario, in each step one damaged element will be determined. First, element 8 is identified as shown in Fig. 7a. The DAM indicates element 8 has 3% stiffness reduction. After element 8 is identified, the model with element 8 damaged is designated as the new baseline model. Then, this new baseline model can be used to detect the damage in element. The results for element are shown in Fig. 7b, in which the normalized accumulative
13 stress of element is reasonably small. In this case, the DAM indicates a 3% stiffness reduction of element. Therefore, the multiple damage case is also able to be handled by the proposed approach. Note that, although element 33 in Fig. 7 also has a small stress, it is only the possible damage location indicated by the DLV method; this is because the damaged element selected in the DAM is element but not element Conclusions An approach that extends the DLV method to include the ambient vibration case has been presented in this paper. By applying the modal expansion method with the proposed approach for selecting the analytical model, the need to measure the input excitation to construct the flexibility matrix has been eliminated. The DLV method could then be applied to locate the damage in the structure. Appropriate strategies were proposed for both single and multiple damage scenarios. As a by-product of the proposed approach, the possible damage extent of the damage element were also estimated. The numerical examples indicate that the results are quite reasonable for damage as small as a 5% stiffness reduction on a local element. In these numerical studies, the approach works well for both single and multiple damage cases. Experimental verification of this proposed approach is currently underway.
