Innovative structural damage detection of bridges by least squares adjustment with constraints
(2016)
Long-term monitoring of bridges requires the early detection of spreading damage because very often the damage is not really visible. For many decades engineers and scientists relayed on dynamic methods especially modal ones. However, after fundamental tests by the U.S. FHWA in 1993, it became evident that more successful methods should be developed, but no innovation really happened. A substantial innovative detection method started four years ago from Lagrange Multiplier Testing which eventually resulted in experimental verification based on measurement of deflection and curvature of the bridge beam and together the methodological combination of both.
With more than 180.000 engineers and scientists VDI Association of German Engineers and VDE Association for Electrical, Electronic & Information Technologies are belonging to the major technical and scientific associations in Europe. Both organizations promote the advancement of technology and among other things by developing recognized technical regulations as national and international standards. Since 2011 Technical Committee 2.15 Optical Measuring Methods for Structure Analysis and Monitoring as a common committee of both organizations is working among other things on the development of standards for optical measuring and testing methods. The committee consists of 27 members representing industrial users, system manufacturers, research institutes and universities. Currently the committee is drafting the new standard VDI/VDE 2626 Part 1 - Optical measuring procedures – Image correlation methods – Basics and equipment, which will be introduced in this presentation.
Draft VDI/VDE 2626 Part 1 describes practical acceptance and reverification procedures for the evaluation of the accuracy of optical measuring systems based on digital image correlation (DIC) methods. The document applies to DIC measurement systems used a) for full-field determination of two- or three-dimensional displacement of surfaces, and b) for
full-field determination of the elongation or strain of surfaces. The standard describes quality parameters as well as methods and reference objects for their determination. The quality parameters serve to specify DIC systems, and to compare different systems. They are equally suitable a) for acceptance tests as well as b) for reverification of DIC systems within the framework of a quality management system.
The acceptance test is used to determine whether the DIC system complies with the quality parameter limits specified by the manufacturer, or with contractually agreed limits by the manufacturer and user, respectively. For this test the quality parameters zero-displacement error, zero-strain error, and displacement error are defined and used. Zero-displacement error and zero-strain error describe minimum measurement uncertainties of the DIC system a user has to reckon with. They are influenced by different uncertainty contributions. The quality parameter displacement error is used to check the ability of the DIC system to determine absolute displacements within the measurement volume and to confirm the traceability of this measurement to the SI system.
Reverification of DIC systems serves to ensure long-term compliance with specified limits for the quality parameters. By comparing the results of successive reverification measurements of the quality parameters used for the acceptance test, it is possible to analyze trends with respect to changes in DIC system characteristics.
Piezoresistive accelerometers use a strain-sensing element, generally made of semiconductor material, e.g., silicon to convert the mechanical motion into an electrical signal. This element is usually designed in form of a cantilever beam loaded with a mass. Acceleration causes bending of the beam, which produces a change of electrical resistance proportional to the applied acceleration.
Main advantages of piezoresistive accelerometers in comparison to other types, e.g., piezoelectric and capacitive, is their robust and highly dynamic behavior, which qualifies them for application in high impact shock applications. Mechanical damping is typically implemented with silicon oil in a way that the output signal is undistorted over a wide frequency range. These characteristics principally qualify them for the application in drop tests carried out at BAM, for which they are calibrated over the frequency range from 1 to 4 kHz. However, using silicon oil for damping, has the drawback of temperature dependent change of its viscosity, leading to temperature dependent deviation of the accelerometer’s sensitivity.
This study presents experimental results of the temperature behavior of a piezoresistive accelerometer with a dynamic range up to ±5000 g.
This type of accelerometer is applied for drop tests which are partially performed at temperatures of -40 or +100 °C.
High quality tubular products are essential to the oil and gas industry. Quality control during their production focuses on the non-destructive detection of surface defects. The structured light technique is a candidate for the challenge to detect, monitor and evaluate such defects in real-time.
In the present study the automatic processing of structured light measurements is performed and validated. The algorithm for the automatic Analysis of inspection data has an advantage over current data evaluation methods based on individual assessments of operators.
