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.
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.
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.
In Operational Modal Analysis, the modal parameters (natural frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes) obtained from Stochastic Subspace Identification (SSI) of a structure, are afflicted with statistical uncertainty. 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. Results of the covariance- and data-driven SSI are compared.
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.
