Abstract Baseline-free algorithms are already familiar for applications in structural health monitoring(SHM) exploring detection and location of damages in composite structures, mainly based on measurements of active and sensing piezoelectric patches receiving guided waves where baseline data is unavailable. However, to reach a high level of SHM's hierarchy, for example, to quantify the level of damage or for forecasting this extension using only the current status, typically demands a previous model. Thus, the popular baseline-free strategies are limited to do it because most of them apply only time reversal or indices extracted directly of the output signals without these required associated models. Therefore, this project intends to provide a new contribution to this field by identifying an Auto-Regressive with an eXogenous input (ARX) model for directly monitoring the model output-error. First, this black-box model would be identified with a focus in multi-step-ahead to be able to capture the wave propagation dynamics in each structural state for a long horizon of prediction. It is essential to have a multi-step-ahead prediction model rather than a one-step-ahead, as employed by most of the works using autoregressive models for SHM purposes because the signal extrapolation to a future state can be inferred before the measures are collected. So, this is a surrogate model that can also be used to establish a correlation between damage indices extracted from output-error model and the existence of damage utilizing a trend curve regression. Next, the trend curve should be extrapolated here using a combination with Gaussian process to inspect how damage indices change are following a possible damage evolution. This work plan describes the motivation, goals, expected results, and scheduled to be followed during this internship at Chonnam National University in South Korea. (AU) | |
