Model-based data-interpretation techniques are increasingly used to improve the knowledge of complex system behavior. Physics-based models that are identified using measurement data are generally used for extrapolation to predict system behavior under othe ...
For system identification, most sensor-placement strategies are based on the minimization of the model-parameter uncertainty. However, reducing the uncertainty in remaining-life prognosis of structures is often more relevant. This paper proposes an optimiz ...
Infrastructure facilities are important to the economic growth and quality of life of modern societies. Much infrastructure has been built principally in the second half of the 20th century and several thousand structures are now attaining their design liv ...
Accurate models of real behaviour that are determined through measurements help engineers avoid expensive interventions and structural replacement. Model calibration by “curve-fitting” measurements to predictions is not appropriate for full-scale structure ...
The aim of model-based structural identification is to make sense of monitoring data in order to improve knowledge of the real behaviour of structures. Common use of structural-identification techniques involves an assumption of independent zero-mean Gauss ...

Real behavior of existing structures is usually associated with large uncertainty that is often covered by the use of conservative models and code practices for the evaluation of remaining fatigue lives. In order to make better decisions related to retrofi ...

Evaluation of aging infrastructure has been a world-wide concern for decades due to its economic, ecological and societal importance. Existing structures usually have large amounts of unknown reserve capacity that may be evaluated though structural identif ...

The development of alternative energy solutions to meet the increasing energy demand requires the expansion of the production network. In this context hydropower plants (HPPs) represent a reliable renewable energy source [3] and the possibility of integrat ...

Conservative models and code practices are usually employed for fatigue-damage predictions of existing structures. Direct in-service behavior measurements are able to provide more accurate estimations of remaining-fatigue-life predictions. However, these e ...
Model-based data-interpretation techniques are widely used to identify the behavior of structures. These techniques exploit information provided by in-situ measurements to make diagnosis related to structural performance. In the context of model-based infr ...
