Reinforced concrete (RC) is used as structural material in most diverse civil engineering applications. For the variability of its physical properties it is still an engineering challenge to meet all necessary requirements for the prediction of dynamic effects under impact loading. In this paper, investigations are shown within the scope of quantifying and evaluating the damage caused by an impact. The experimental investigations are performed in the field of low- and medium-velocity impact. The chosen flat nose shape results in small penetrations on the top side and scabbing on the bottom side. The plate is scanned with an adapted planar tomographic examination after the impact, and the damage is analysed, afterwards. Cracks and spalling are made visible with a reconstruction. The numerical model validated on the tomographic results justifies the application for further predictions of the damage description.
We examine the behavior of reinforced concrete components subjected to impact induced loading conditions which might be caused by vessels collisions such as aircraft fuel tanks The concrete plates were impact damaged at TU Dresden and shipped to BAM At BAM laminar tomography as the imaging method is used to determine and quantify the damage state An automatic crack detection method based on template matching is applied to find the cracks and we aim to develop a new method using machine learning Algorithms In addition numerical models are developed to understand the experiment and to predict the damage structures based on failure mechanisms.
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.
Bridge retrofitting of a section of the Berlin subway which is designed as railway on steel viaduct is presented. 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.
In structural parts under vibrational loading fatigue cracks can initiate and grow, which can lead to structural failure. Conventional non-destructive testing methods for crack detection provide just a snapshot of fatigue crack evolution, whereas crack luminescence coating realizes clear visibility of the entire crack formation. Fatigue causing cyclic tensile tests and examinations on special test bodies allowing control of the crack opening width demonstrate a high sensitivity of the coating.
The aim of this work is to improve the current structural health monitoring (SHM) methods for civil structures. A field experiment was carried out on a two-span bridge with a built-in un-bonded prestressing system. The bridge is a 24-metre long concrete beam resting on three bear-ings. Cracks were formed subsequently when a prestressing force of 350 kN was changed to 200 kN, so that different structural states could be demonstrated. The structural assessment of this reference bridge was accomplished by the non-destructive testing using ultrasonic devices and vibration measurements. The ultrasonic velocity variations were investigated by using the coda wave interferometry method. The seismic interferometry technique was applied to the vi-bration recordings to reconstruct the wave propagation field in the bridge. This investigation shows that the wave velocity is sensitive to the current structural state and can be considered as the damage indicator. Overall, the implementation of coda cave interferometry and seismic interferometry technique facilitates structural health monitoring (SHM) in civil engineering.
Messtechnische Systeme zur Dauerüberwachung von Bauwerken ermöglichen Einblicke in deren reale Trag- und Verformungsverhalten. Die Planung und technische Umsetzung solcher Maßnahmen erfordern für die erfolgreiche Erfüllung der Aufgabenstellungen eine hohe Fachkompetenz, sowohl auf der planerischen Seite, als auch für die fachliche Bewertung von angebotenen Monitoringlösungen. Als Hilfestellung dafür wurde von der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung (DGZfP) das Merkblatt „Dauerüberwachung von Ingenieurbauwerken“ erarbeitet, welches nun verfügbar ist. In diesem Beitrag werden die Inhalte des neuen Merkblatts vorgestellt und dieses in die vorhandene Literatur eingeordnet.
Within the presented research project, experimental and numerical investigations were performed to develop a thin-shelled, modular, mobile element system made of a micro-reinforced ultra-high-performance ductile concrete (DUCON®). Material parameters were experimentally determined to adapt the material model within the numerical analysis applying the Drucker-Prager relationship. Afterwards, for validation of the numerical models, quasi-static and high-velocity impact tests were performed on plate-like structures. Finally, a suitable geometry of transportable barrier elements will be designed, which provides a maximum of resistance against impact by a minimum of weight and a maximum of mobility.

Classic non-destructive fatigue crack detection methods reveal the state of the fatigue damage evolution at the moment of application, generally not under operational conditions. The here introduced crack luminescence method realizes a clear visibility of the occurred and growing crack in loaded components during operation. Different established experiments show that due to the sensitive coating a crack Formation can be detected even in early stage under the premise the crack reached the surface. The coating consists of two layers with different properties and functions. The bottom layer emits light as fluorescence under UV radiation. The top layer covers the fluorescing one and prevents the emitting of light in case of no damage at the surface. In case of surface crack occurrence, the luminescent light is clearly noticeable by visual observations and also by standard camera equipment which makes automated crack detection possible as well. It is expected that crack luminescence can increase structural safety as well as reduce costs and time for inspections and preventive maintenance.
Die dauerhafte messtechnische Überwachung von Brückenbauwerken ist nach wie vor eine neuartige Verfahrensweise zur Bestimmung des Ist-Zustandes von Tragwerken. 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.
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.
Subspace-based detection of fatigue damage on jacket support structures of offshore wind turbines
(2014)
The paper describes the application of the Stochastic Subspace-based Damage Detection (SSDD) method on model structures for an utilization of this approach on offshore wind turbine structures. Aim of the study was therefore to analyze the usability and efficiency of the detection method as well as to determine an optimized set of parameter for realistic damage on support structures of wind energy turbines. Based on results of an experimental fatigue test on a Steel frame laboratory structure a strategy for a numerical verification of the experimentally evolved damage detection was developed, utilizing a time integration approach to simulate the dynamic response. In a second Step the identified modeling and computing methodology is used to numerically investigate the ability to detect damage in real size structural components of offshore wind turbines.
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 contribution discusses the processing and analysis of data generated on two different ways of investigations for impact damage in reinforced concrete structures. Damage investigations are essential to determine type and characteristics of damage and thus the residual capacity. Damage describing data is generated using two different types of investigation, a non-destructive tomographic as well as numerical examination. Subsequently, data of both sources was merged and analysed. Within the research project “Behaviour of structural components during impact load conditions caused by aircraft fuel tank collision” reinforces concrete plates were damaged by impact loading, see Hering (2020). Afterwards the damaged specimens were investigated tomographically as well as numerically using several methods and models. Aim of the presented research work was to specify an objective comparability of numerical data with experimentally determined damage patterns and based on this, to establish a quantitative damage evaluation.
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.
