Resumo

In this paper, a damage detection strategy for beam-type structures based on frequency response functions (FRFs) is presented. Five aluminum beams of equal nominal dimensions are used in an experimental program under laboratory conditions to obtain experimental FRF data from both undamaged and damaged conditions. Damages are induced by creating rectangular notches on the beams using saw-cutting. A stochastic finite element model of the beam is developed in MATLAB to construct several training datasets. The damages are modeled by reducing the cross-sectional area at the corresponding damaged elements. Simple damage indexes are proposed as damage-sensitive features. Decision Tree, Support Vector Machines, and Artificial Neural Networks classifiers are trained in the first stage to perform damage detection and localization. Single and multiple damages located in a single zone and more than one zone simultaneously are considered. In the second stage, experimental data not used for training are used for validation. The results from the first stage suggest that the proposed damage indexes can effectively detect and locate structural damage in beams. Among all classifiers, Artificial Neural Networks is the classifier that best performed. High accuracy is achieved to identify the presence of damage (99.3%) and detecting its location on the beam for some of the training datasets (from 80.0% to 97.1%). In the second stage of validation, accuracy, as expected, decreased. However, misclassifications occur mainly for FRF samples in the impact zone, which indicates that the proposed strategy can be efficient to detect damages at locations other than the excitation zone.
