Abstract

In practical engineering, uncertainties inevitably exist in the models and measurement data used for structures. Therefore, a statistical strategy related to damage detection methods become crucial. In this paper, a probabilistic statistical damage detection method for FG Euler–Bernoulli beam struct...
