Der Fachbereich 7.2 Ingenieurbau der BAM befasst sich seit mittlerweise mehr als 25 Jahren mit der Entwicklung von Methoden und Verfahren dieser Form der Bauwerksüberwachung. Die damit verbundene Tätigkeit umfasst die Beschreibung theoretischer Grundlagen, die Entwicklung von Algorithmen zur Erfassung, Bearbeitung und Auswertung von Messsignalen, die Bewertung der Ergebnisse bezüglich Tragsicherheit, Gebrauchstauglichkeit und Restnutzungsdauer und nicht zuletzt die Untersuchung und Verifizierung der praktischen Anwendbarkeit. Dabei standen insbesondere die sogenannten dynamischen Verfahren im Blickpunkt der Aktivitäten. Ursprünglich zur Überwachung von rotierenden Maschinenkomponenten entwickelt und dann auch erfolgreich zur Überwachung von Bauteilen der Flugzeug-, Raumfahrt- und Automobilindustrie weiterentwickelt, weckten diese Verfahren weltweit das Interesse der sich mit der Sicherheit bestehender Baukonstruktionen befassenden Wissenschaftler und Ingenieure. Ein beachtenswertes Projekt der BAM in diesem Zusammenhang ist die Dauerüberwachung der Westendbrücke in Berlin, das Mitte der 90er Jahre von der damaligen Senatsverwaltung für Stadtentwicklung von Berlin (ehemals Bauen, Wohnen und Verkehr) in Auftrag gegeben und über viele Jahre gefördert wurde. Im Rahmen dieses Aufsatzes werden am Beispiel dieses Projektes, das sich wie ein roter Faden durch die Entwicklungsgeschichte des Monitorings an der BAM zieht, die Motivationen und Zielstellungen dargelegt, das Überwachungssystem vorgestellt und die gemachten Erfahrungen anhand einiger Ergebnisse erläutert. In einem weiteren Kapitel wird ein Ausblick auf die Zukunft des Monitorings mit angepassten Zielvorstellungen, neuen Methodiken und Strategien geworfen.

T1 - Structural health monitoring during progressive damage test of S101 bridge N2 - For the last decades vibration based identification of damage on civil Engineering structures has become an important issue for maintenance operations on transport infrastructure. Research in that field has been rapidly expanding from classic modal Parameter estimation using measured excitation to modern operational monitoring. Here the difficulty is to regard to the specific environmental and operational influence to the structure under observation. In this paper, two methods accounting for statistical and/or operational uncertainties are applied to measurement data of a progressive damage test on a prestressed concrete bridge. On the base of covariance driven Stochastic Subspace Identification (SSI) an algorithm is developed to monitor and automatically compute confidence intervals of the obtained modal parameters. Furthermore, a null space based non-parametric damage detection method, utilizing a statistical χ2 type test is applied to the measurement data. It can be shown that for concrete bridges the proposed methodology is able to clearly indicate the presence of structural damage, if the damage leads to a change of the structural system.

T1 - Subspace-based damage detection methods on a prestressed concrete bridge N2 - For the last decades vibration based damage detection of engineering structures has become an important issue for maintenance operations on transport infrastructure. Research in vibration based structural damage detection has been rapidly expanding from classic modal parameter estimation to modern operational monitoring. Methodologies from control Engineering especially of aerospace applications have been adopted and converted for the application on civil structures. Here the difficulty is to regard to the specific environmental and operational influence to the structure under observation. A null space based damage detection algorithm is tested for its sensitivity to structural damage of a prestressed concrete road bridge. Specific techniques and extensions of the algorithm are used to overcome difficulties from the size of the structure which is associated with the number of recorded sensor channels as well as from the operational disturbances by a nearby construction site. It can be shown that for concrete bridges the proposed damage detection methodology is able to clearly indicate the presence of structural damage, if the damage leads to a significant change of the structural system. Small damage which do not result in a System change when not activated by loading, do not lead to a modification of the dynamic response behavior and for that cannot be detected with the proposed global monitoring method.

For evaluating the quality of the obtained results it is essential to know the respective confidence intervals of these figures. In this paper we present algorithms that automatically compute the confidence intervals of modal parameters obtained from covarianceand data-driven SSI of a structure based on vibration measurements. They are applied to the monitoring of the modal parameters of a prestressed concrete highway bridge during a progressive damage test that was accomplished within the European research project IRIS.

A1 - Hille, Falk T1 - Subspace-based damage detection under changes in the ambient excitation statistics N2 - In the last ten years, monitoring the integrity of the civil infrastructure has been an active research topic, including in connected areas as automatic control. It is common practice to perform damage detection by detecting changes in the modal parameters between a reference state and the current (possibly damaged) state from measured vibration data. Subspace methods enjoy some popularity in structural engineering, where large model orders have to be considered. In the context of detecting changes in the structural properties and the modal parameters linked to them, a subspace-based fault detection residual has been recently proposed and applied successfully, where the estimation of the modal parameters in the possibly damaged state is avoided. However, most works assume that the unmeasured ambient excitation properties during measurements of the structure in the reference and possibly damaged condition stay constant, which is hardly satisfied by any application. This paper addresses the problem of robustness of such fault detection methods. It is explained why current algorithms from literature fail when the excitation covariance changes and how they can be modified. Then, an efficient and fast subspace-based damage detection test is derived that is robust to changes in the excitation covariance but also to numerical instabilities that can arise easily in the computations. Three numerical applications show the efficiency of the new approach to better detect and separate different levels of damage even using a relatively low sample length.

T1 - Statistical subspace-based damage detection with estimated reference N2 - The statistical subspace-based damage detection technique has shown promising theoretical and practical results for vibration-based structural health monitoring. It evaluates a subspacebased residual function with efficient hypothesis testing tools, and has the ability of detecting small changes in chosen system parameters. In the residual function, a Hankel matrix of Output covariances estimated from test data is confronted to its left null space associated to a reference model. The hypothesis test takes into account the covariance of the residual for decision making. Ideally, the reference model is assumed to be perfectly known without any uncertainty, which is not a realistic assumption. In practice, the left null space is usually estimated from a reference data set to avoid model errors in the residual computation. Then, the associated uncertainties may be non-negligible, in particular when the available reference data is of limited length. In this paper, it is investigated how the statistical distribution of the residual is affected when the reference null space is estimated. The asymptotic residual distribution is derived, where its refined covariance term considers also the uncertainty related to the reference null space estimate. The associated damage detection test closes a theoretical gap for real-world applications and leads to increased robustness of the method in practice. The importance of including the estimation uncertainty of the reference null space is shown in a numerical study and on experimental data of a progressively damaged steel frame.

T1 - Stochastic subspace-based damage detection of a temperature affected beam structure N2 - Structural health monitoring (SHM) of civil structures often is limited due to changing environmental conditions, as those changes affect the structural dynamical properties in a similar way like damages can do. In this article, an approach for damage detection under changing temperatures is presentedand applied to a beam structure. The used stochastic subspace-based algorithm relies on a reference null space estimate, which is confronted to data from the testing state in a residual function. For damage detection the residual is evaluated by means of statistical hypothesis tests. Changes of the system due to temperature effects are handled with a model interpolation approach from linear parameter varying system theory. From vibration data measured in the undamaged state at some few reference temperatures, a model of the dynamic system valid for the current testing temperature is interpolated. The reference null space and the covariance matrix for the hypothesis test is computed from this interpolated model. This approach has been developed recently and was validated in an academic test case on simulations of a mass-spring-damper. In this paper, the approach is validated experimentally on a beam structure under varying temperature conditions in a climate chamber. Compared to other approaches, the interpolation approach leads to significantly less false positive alarms in the reference state when the structure is exposed to different temperatures, while faults can still be detected reliably.

The number of successful SHM projects – especially SHM research projects – is ever growing, yielding added value and more scientific insight into the management of infrastructure asset. With the advent of the data age, the value of accessible data becomes increasingly evident. In SHM, many new data-centric methods are currently being developed at a high pace. A consequent application of research data management (RDM) concepts in SHM projects enables a systematic management of raw and processed data, and thus facilitates the development and application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) methods to the SHM data. In this contribution, a case study based on an institutional RDM framework is presented. Data and metadata from monitoring the structural health of the Maintalbrücke Gemünden for a period of 16 months are managed with the RDM system BAM Data Store, which makes use of the openBIS data management software. An ML procedure is used to classify the data. Feature engineering, feature training and resulting data are performed and modelled in the RDM system.

Als Ursache für die Risse entlang der Längsträger wurde das Versagen eines signifikanten Anteils der Spanndrähte der konzentrierten Spannglieder vermutet. Die Brücke wurde umgehend für den Verkehr gesperrt und im Mai 2021 gesprengt. Im Vorfeld der Sprengung wurden durch das Bundesministerium für Digitales und Verkehr (BMDV) weiterführende Untersuchungen zum Schadensbild veranlasst, welche vom Landesbetrieb Straßenwesen Brandenburg koordiniert und in den Bauablauf integriert wurden.

N2 - A routine inspection of the B1 bridge at the Altstädter Bahnhof in Brandenburg an der Havel in December 2019 revealed massive and rapidly progressing damage. The cause of the cracks along the longitudinal girders was suspected to be the failure of a significant portion of the prestressing wires of the concentrated tendons. The bridge was immediately closed to traffic and demolished in May 2021. Prior to the demolition, the Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport (BMDV) initiated further investigations into the damage pattern, which were coordinated and integrated into the deconstruction process by the Landesbetrieb Straßenwesen Brandenburg. The test concept was developed by the Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft Dresden (HTW) and is described in the previous article (Part 1). The article at present (Part 2) describes selected results of the extensive measurement and monitoring measures accompanying the tests. The Tests were carried out in cooperation with the HTW Dresden, Bilfinger Noell GmbH and the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM).

Currently, inspection outcomes are generally not systematically recorded. This prevents their consistent handling and processing, which is a key requirement to enable an efficient structural integrity management. As part of the DiMoWind-Inspect project, a data model and reference designation system for such inspection results is developed to facilitate their identification, localization, quantification, tracing and linking throughout the lifetime of a wind farm and beyond. The inspection results together with structural health monitoring results and information on repairs form the basis for assessing and predicting the structural condition, estimating the remaining lifetime, and planning of future inspections, structural health monitoring, and repairs. As a basis for developing a digital structural integrity management, a generic framework is proposed in this paper, which describes the stakeholders, data, models, processes and workflows of the integrity management of support structures in offshore wind farms and their interrelations. The framework adopts a building information modelling approach to describe the information relevant to the structural integrity management. The central digital space of the framework is a common data environment. An implementation of the framework will enable a digital structural integrity management in which inspection, structural health monitoring, repair, assessment and planning outcomes generated throughout the life cycle of a wind farm can be consistently collected, managed, shared and processed by the relevant shareholders.

Am Fallturm auf dem Testgelände Technische Sicherheit (TTS) der BAM wurde bei Routineinspektionen eine Abnahme der strukturellen Integrität in Form von Vorspannungsverlusten in den Bolzen der Stahlverbindungen festgestellt. Um ein Verständnis für die zugrundeliegenden Trag- und Schädigungsmechanismen zu erlangen, wurde ein umfassendes Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) System geplant und am Bauwerk installiert unter Nutzung von digitalen Bauwerksmodellen. Für die Auslegung des Überwachungssystems, insbesondere aber zur Unterstützung der Untersuchung des Schädigungsprozesses, wurden Finite-Elemente-Modelle erstellt. Um sicherzustellen, dass die FE-Modelle das reale Tragwerksverhalten mit ausreichender Genauigkeit abbilden, mussten sie jedoch in Bezug auf die gemessenen Antworten des Tragwerks kalibriert werden. Der vorliegende Beitrag beschreibt experimentelle und numerische Untersuchungen zur Identifizierung des strukturellen Systems des Stahlrohrgitterturms in Vorbereitung einer Überwachungskampagne. Die Auswertung von gemessenen Schwingungen unter ambienter Anregung ermöglichte die Identifizierung der Eigenfrequenzen mehrerer globaler Schwingungsmoden des Fallturms. Zur Modellvalidierung wurde zunächst eine Sensitivitätsanalyse durchgeführt, um die Parameter mit dem größten Einfluss zu ermitteln. Anschließend wurde ein evolutionärer Algorithmus (EA) zur Optimierung nach dem Prinzip der Minimierung der Differenzen zwischen gemessenen und simulierten charakteristischen Antworten eingesetzt. Das aktualisierte Modell wurde schließlich an der dynamischen Reaktion der Turmstruktur infolge einer realen Falltest-induzierten Stoßbelastung validiert. Die Ergebnisse zeigten eine gute Übereinstimmung zwischen numerischen und experimentellen Ergebnissen. N2 - Drop test towers are structures subjected to very specific dynamic loadings. At the drop test tower at the Test Site Technical Safety (TTS) of BAM routine inspections revealed a decline of structural integrity in form of loss of pretension in bolts of structural steel connections. To get an understanding about the underlying damage mechanisms as well as to assure the structural safety in operation, a multifaceted Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) system was planned and installed at the structure with the help of digital models. For planning the monitoring system but especially for supporting the investigation of the damaging process finite element models are deployed. Though, to ensure the capability of the FE model to reproduce the real structural behavior in sufficient accuracy, it needs to be calibrated in respect to measured responses of the structure. The present contribution describes experimental and numerical investigations to identify the structural system of the steel tube lattice tower in preparation of the monitoring campaign. An ambient vibration test allowed the identification of the natural frequencies of several global vibrational modes of the drop test tower. For model updating first a sensitivity analysis is applied to identify the most influencing parameter. In succession a genetic algorithm was applied for optimization in the sense of minimization of the difference between measured and simulated characteristic responses. The updated model is finally validated on the dynamic response of the tower structure to a real drop test induced impact loading. The results showed a good agreement between numerical and experimental results though the robustness of the simulation should be improved by more sophisticated numerical modelling. T2 - 7.

A1 - Hille, Falk T1 - Detecting changes in boundary conditions based on sensitivity-based statistical tests N2 - Structural health monitoring is a promising technology to automatically detect structural changes based on permanently installed sensors. Vibration-based methods that evaluate the global system response to ambient excitation are suited to diagnose changes in boundary conditions, i.e., changes in member prestress or imposed displacements. In this paper, these changes are evaluated based on sensitivity-based statistical tests, which are capable of detecting and localizing parametric structural changes. The main contribution is the analytical calculation of sensitivity vectors for changes in boundary conditions (i.e., changes in prestress or support conditions) based on stress stiffening, and the combination with a numerically efficient algorithm, i.e., Nelson’s method. One of the main advantages of the employed damage diagnosis algorithm is that, although it uses physical models for damage detection, it considers the uncertainty in the data-driven features, which enables a reliabilitybased approach to determine the probability of detection. Moreover, the algorithm can be trained and the probability of detecting future damages can be predicted based on data and a model from the undamaged structure, in an unsupervised learning mode, making it particularly relevant for unique structures, where no data from the damaged state is available. For proof of concept, a numerical case study is presented. The study assesses the loss of prestress in a two-span reinforced concrete beam and showcases suitable validation approaches for the sensitivity calculation.

T1 - Subspace-based detection of fatigue damage on a steel frame laboratory structure for offshore applications N2 - Altematively to common modal analysis as tool for detectmg changes between a reference and an actual (possibly damaged) structural state, the subspace-based damage detection method has been developed in recent years and successfully adopted to test application data sets. Characteristic for that method is that instead of analyzing modal parameters, a Statistical test with respect to changes of a dynamic signature of structural response is introduced. Therefor, a Gaussian residual vector is extracted from the subspace of an output only Vibration data covariance matrix within the reference state. The paper describes the application of this damage detection method within a laboratory fatigue test on a Steel frame structure. Aim of the investigation was to analyze the usability and efficiency of the detection method for realistic damage on carrying structures of wind energy turbines. In a second Step, a numerical model of the lab test structure is developed and validated. Thus, a comparable numerical Simulation of the fatigue damage detection was feasible and the accuracy of the Simulation procedure could be verified. The present study describes the first Step in a two-step approach for quantifying and optimizing fundamental characteristics of SHM Systems for offshore wind turbine structures concerning a required number of sensors and their optimal location.

T1 - Subspace-based damage detection on steel frame structure under changing excitation N2 - Damage detection can be performed by detecting changes in the modal parameters between a reference state and the current (possibly damaged) state of a structure from measured output-only vibration data. Alternatively, a subspace-based damage detection test has been proposed and applied successfully, where changes in the modal parameters are detected, but the estimation of the modal parameters themselves is avoided. Like this, the test can run in an automated way directly on the vibration measurements. However, it was assumed that the unmeasured ambient excitation properties during measurements of the structure in the reference and possibly damaged condition stay constant, which is hardly satisfied by any application. A new version of the test has been derived recently that is robust to such changes in the ambient excitation. In this paper, the robust test is recalled and its performance is evaluated both on numerical simulations and a real application, where a steel frame structure is artificially damaged in the lab.

A1 - Rücker, Werner T1 - Structural health monitoring with statistical methods during progressive damage test of S101 Bridge N2 - For the last decades vibration based damage detection of engineering structures has become an important issue for maintenance operations on transport infrastructure. Research in vibration based structural damage detection has been rapidly expanding from classic modal parameter estimation to modern operational monitoring. Since structures are subject to unknown ambient excitation in operation conditions, all estimates from the finite data measurements are of statistical nature. The intrinsic uncertainty due to finite data length, colored noise, non-stationary excitations, model order reduction or other operational influences needs to be considered for robust and automated structural health monitoring methods. In this paper, two subspace-based methods are considered that take these statistical uncertainties into account, first modal parameter and their confidence interval estimation for a direct comparison of the structural states, and second a statistical null space based damage detection test that completely avoids the identification step. The performance of both methods is evaluated on a large scale progressive damage test of a prestressed concrete road bridge, the S101 Bridge in Austria. In an on-site test, ambient vibration data of the S101 Bridge was recorded while different damage scenarios were introduced on the bridge as a benchmark for damage identification. It is shown that the proposed damage detection methodology is able to clearly indicate the presence of structural damage, if the damage leads to a change of the structural system.

A1 - Hille, Falk T1 - Efficient computation of minmax tests for fault isolation and their application to structural damage localization N2 - Fault detection and isolation can be handled by many different approaches. This paper builds upon a hypothesis test that checks whether the mean of a Gaussian random vector has become non-zero in the faulty state, based on a chi2 test. For fault isolation, it has to be decided which components in the parameter set of the Gaussian vector have changed, which is done by variants of the chi2 hypothesis test using the so-called sensitivity and minmax approaches. While only the sensitivity of the tested parameter component is taken into account in the sensitivity approach, the sensitivities of all parameters are used in the minmax approach, leading to better statistical properties at the expense of an increased computational burden. The computation of the respective test variable in the minmax test is cumbersome and may be ill-conditioned especially for large parameter sets, asking hence for a careful numerical evaluation. Furthermore, the fault isolation procedure requires the repetitive calculation of the test variable for each of the parameter components that are tested for a change, which may be a significant computational burden. In this paper, dealing with the minmax problem, we propose a new efficient computation for the test variables, which is based on a simultaneous QR decomposition for all parameters. Based on this scheme, we propose an efficient test computation for a large parameter set, leading to a decrease in the numerical complexity by one order of magnitude in the total number of parameters. Finally, we show how the minmax test is useful for structural damage localization, where an asymptotically Gaussian residual vector is computed from output-only vibration data of a mechanical or a civil structure.

Fatigue damage in the superstructure of the over 70-years-old viaduct made an investigation of the damage causes necessary prior to the planning of retrofitting measures. The damage specifically occurred at the inverted arched steel plates of the ballast support elements. Those plates were provided for carrying the track ballast as well as the traffic load. For the retrofitting, the inverted arched plates were unloaded. The superstructure was redesigned into a fixed track system, which is able to transfer the traffic load directly into the substructure. The new rail fastening system made it necessary to verify the structural integrity of single elements as well as of the main system of the existing viaduct. The verification was based on several experimental investigations at BAM laboratory and on-site. Based on the evaluation of all test results the operation license could be issued.

T1 - Monitoring und Schadensdetektion an Tragstrukturen von Offshore-Windenergieanlagen N2 - Mit dem generellen Ziel, die Anwendbarkeit und Funktionalität des Verfahrens der stochastischen subspace-basierten Schadensdetektion für Strukturen von Offshore-Windenergieanlagen nachzuweisen, wurden experimentelle und numerische Untersuchungen an einer Laborstruktur sowie anschließend numerische Untersuchungen an einer OWEA-Gründungsstruktur durchgeführt. Das zugrundeliegende Verfahren verwendet einen Ansatz, in weder modale Kenngrößen noch andere benutzerdefinierte Eingaben erfordert, nachdem einmalig der Referenzzustand aufgenommen wurde. Dabei werden ausschließlich dem Belastungsprozess inhärente stochastische Anregungen der betrachteten Struktur genutzt. Auf der Basis experimentell erzielter Detektionsergebnisse aus einem Ermüdungsversuch an einer Laborstruktur aus Stahl wurden numerische Modelle und Berechnungsalgorithmen entwickelt und getestet. In einem zweiten Schritt wird diese Analysemethodik auf eine fiktive OWEA-Jacketstruktur realer Größe angewendet. An den simulierten Strukturantworten im Ungeschädigten und geschädigten Zustand wird der Detektionsalgorithmus angewendet, um den Einfluss von Sensorposition und Abtastrate auf die Schadensdetektion festzustellen. Unter Berücksichtigung einzelner vereinfachender Annahmen zeigten die Ergebnisse der Anwendung der vorgestellten Detektionsmethodik an den numerisch erzeugte Antwortdatensätzen eine beachtliche Empfindlichkeit des x2-Testwert basierten Schadensindikators. Obwohl nicht unter allen Umständen in einem frühen Stadium nachweisbar, typische Ermüdungsrisse in Schweißverbindungen von aufgelösten Tragwerken haben ab einer Restbiegesteifigkeit von ca. 80% einen signifikanten und detektierbaren Einfluss auf den Schadensindikator. Künftige Forschungsaktivitäten in diesem Bereich sollten neben der Erkennung von Schäden auch die Lokalisierung und ggf. auch die Quantifizierung zum Ziel haben. Erforderlich dazu ist die Berücksichtigung und Verarbeitung der strukturellen Parameter und ihrer Sensitivitäten im zugrunde liegenden mathematischen Modell.

The scientific community has put a lot of effort into the development of this knowledge, especially after the unfortunate events of 09/11 in Manhattan. The main concern is with nuclear power plants and how to design structures that can withstand such extreme situations. An experimental investigation has been carried out to collect fundamental data and to develop a deeper understanding of the effect of impact damage on the load capacity of concrete plates. The paper presents the process on the definition of procedures and the first results of an experimental investigation on the damage and residual load capacity of reinforced concrete plates after impact load. Two types of reinforced concrete plates measuring 1.5 x 1.5 x 0.3 m were subjected to the impact of a flat-nose hard projectile. The two types were casted with the same reinforcement and 80 or 40 MPa concrete. After the impact, the plates go through planar tomography, visual inspection and an ultimate load capacity test. The results showed that the planar tomography can be used for the assessment of internal damage on concrete plates, as long as the number of scans in each direction is more than four. The visual inspection gave a good. The formation of cone cracking after the impact load showed the highest influence on the remaining load capacity of the concrete plates. More plates will be tested to confirm the indications at different damage conditions.

It is, in particular, suitable for mechanical and aeronautical structures as well as on civil structures, including cultural heritage sites. The main challenge is to provide a robust damage diagnosis from the recorded vibration measurements, for which statistical signal processing methods are required. In this chapter, a damage detection method is presented that compares vibration measurements from the current system to a reference state in a hypothesis test, where data9 related uncertainties are taken into account. The computation of the test statistic on new measurements is straightforward and does not require a separate modal identification. The performance of the method is firstly shown on a steel frame structure in a laboratory experiment. Secondly, the application on real measurements on S101 Bridge is shown during a progressive damage test, where damage was successfully detected for different damage scenarios.

T1 - Load vector based damage localization with rejection of the temperature effect N2 - The Stochastic Dynamic Damage Locating Vector (SDDLV) approach is a vibration-based damage localization method based on both a finite element model of a structure and modal parameters estimated from output-only measurements in the damage and reference states. A statistical version of the Approach takes into account the inherent uncertainty due to noisy measurement data. In this paper, the effect of temperature fluctuations on the performance of the method is analyzed in a model-based approach using a finite element model with temperature dependent parameters. Robust damage localization is carried out by rejecting the temperature influence on the identified modal parameters in the damaged state. The algorithm is illustrated on a simulated structure.
