Damage Detection of Beam Bridge Under a Moving Load Using Auto-encoder
Journal: Journal of Building Technology DOI: 10.32629/jbt.v3i1.423
Abstract
A novel damage detection approach based on Auto-encoder neural network is proposed to identify damage in beam-like bridges subjected to a moving mass. In this approach, several sensors are used to measure structural vibration responses during a mass moving across the bridge. An auto-encoder (AE) neural network is designed to extract features from the measured responses. A fixed moving window is used to cut out the time-domain responses to generate inputs of the AE neural network. Moreover, some constraints are applied on the hidden layer to improve the performance of the AE network in training process. When the training is complete, the encoder was regarded as a feature extractor. And the damage index is defined as the cosine distance between two feature vectors obtained from adjacent data windows. By moving the window along the measured vibration data, we can calculate a damage index series and locate the damage position of the structure. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed method, numerical simulation is carried out. The results show that the proposed method can accurately locate both single and multiple damages using acceleration response. It infers the proposed method is promising for structural damage detection.
