Simulation-based digital twins have emerged as a powerful tool for evaluating the mechanical response of bridges. As virtual representations of physical systems, digital twins can provide a wealth of information that complements traditional inspection and monitoring data. By incorporating virtual sensors and predictive maintenance strategies, they have the potential to improve our understanding of the behavior and performance of bridges over time. However, as bridges age and undergo regular loading and extreme events, their tructural characteristics change, often differing from the predictions of their initial design. Digital twins must be continuously adapted to reflect these changes. In this article, we present a Bayesian framework for updating simulation-based digital twins in the context of bridges. Our approach integrates information from measurements to account for inaccuracies in the simulation model and quantify uncertainties. Through its implementation and assessment, this work demonstrates the potential for digital twins to provide a reliable and up-to-date representation of bridge behavior, helping to inform decision-making for maintenance and management.
Die sprunghaft zunehmende Wichtigkeit von FAIR- und Open-Data für die Qualitätssicherung, aber auch für die Nachnutzbarkeit von Daten und den Erkenntnisfortschritt führt zu enormem Flandlungsbedarf in Forschung und Entwicklung. Damit verbunden laufen derzeit vielfältige, ambitionierte Aktionen, z. B. bezüglich der Erstellung von Ontologien und Wissensgraphen. Das Knowhow entwickelt sich rasant, die Ansätze zur Implementation entstehen in verschiedenen Fachwelten bzw. mit
unterschiedlichen Zielsetzungen parallel, so dass recht heterogene Herangehensweisen resultieren.
Diese Veröffentlichung fokussiert auf Arbeiten, die derzeit als möglichst ganzheitlicher Ansatz für Materialdaten im Rahmen der Digitalisierungsinitiative „Plattform MaterialDigital" vorangetrieben werden. Die Autoren bearbeiten baustoffbezogene Aspekte im Verbundprojekt „LeBeDigital - Lebenszyklus von Beton". Zielsetzung ist die digitale Beschreibung des Materialverhaltens von Beton über den kompletten Herstellungsprozess eines Fertigteils mit einer Integration von Daten und Modellen innerhalb eines Workflows zur probabilistischen Material- und Prozessoptimierung.
Es wird über die Vorgehensweise und die dabei gewonnenen Erfahrungen berichtet, nicht ohne den Blick auf die oft unterschätzte Komplexität der Thematik zu lenken.
In recent years, the use of simulation-based digital twins for monitoring and assessment of complex mechanical systems has greatly expanded. Their potential to increase the information obtained from limited data makes them an invaluable tool for a broad range of real-world applications. Nonetheless, there usually exists a discrepancy between the predicted response and the measurements of the system once built. One of the main contributors to this difference in addition to miscalibrated model parameters is the model error. Quantifying this socalled model bias (as well as proper values for the model parameters) is critical for the reliable performance of digital twins. Model bias identification is ultimately an inverse problem where information from measurements is used to update the original model. Bayesian formulations can tackle this task. Including the model bias as a parameter to be inferred enables the use of a Bayesian framework to obtain a probability distribution that represents the uncertainty between the measurements and the model. Simultaneously, this procedure can be combined with a classic parameter updating scheme to account for the trainable parameters in the original model.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of different model bias identification approaches based on Bayesian inference methods. This includes more classical approaches such as direct parameter estimation using MCMC in a Bayesian setup, as well as more recent proposals such as stat-FEM or orthogonal Gaussian Processes. Their potential use in digital twins, generalization capabilities, and computational cost is extensively analyzed.
In materials and component research, artificial intelligence methodologies will lead to massive upheavals in the coming years. The processes of material development, material processing, lifetime prediction and material characterization will change significantly. By combining AI methods and new forms of knowledge representation, the data-based management of product life cycles will take on new qualities. To address this emerging field of research Fraunhofer IWM set up the online workshop »AI Methods for Fatigue Behavior Assessment and Component Lifetime Prediction«
In this paper, the imperialist competitive optimization algorithm is improved by damage functions to detect damage in a model steel frame test structure for offshore applications. A finite element model of the test structure is developed, validated and updated using the proposed method. As there are much more design variables, which are related to the stiffness of each finite element than the measured mode shapes, the problem is underdetermined. Therefore, damage functions are used to regularize the problem and decrease the number of design variables. A new objective function is proposed for the algorithm using the mode shapes and their l1 norm. The first ten measured mode shapes are used to solve the problem. It is shown that the proposed method is capable of predicting the damage locations with acceptable accuracy.
A safe and robust performance is a key criterion when building and maintaining structures and components. Ensuring this criterion at different stages of the lifetime can be supported by applying continuous monitoring concepts. The latter usually can serve multiple purposes, including the determination of material parameters for the design phase, the evaluation of the actual loading/environmental conditions (instead of using conservative estimates that are usually larger) and evaluating or predicting the true performance of the structure (thus decreasing the model bias). In this context, a digital twin of the structure has many benefits. In addition, it allows to introduce virtual sensors to “measure” sensor information that is e.g. inaccessible or unmeasureable. In the limit, the remaining useful life of a structure can be interpreted as a property that can be “measured” indirectly via the numerical model in combination with real sensor data. In order to efficiently use monitoring techniques in the context of a digital twin, it is important to consider the complete chain of information including the choice of sensors, the data processing and structuring, the modelling assumptions, the numerical simulation and finally the stochastic nature of the model prediction. In this presentation, challenges in this context are discussed with a specific focus on Bayesian model updating of the digital twin, accounting for both parameter updates as well as model bias that results from the limitations of modelling assumption. A bottleneck in this approach is the computational effort related to sampling methods such as Markov chain Monte Carlo methods that require many evaluations of the forward model. An alternative to the expensive computation of the forward model for updating the digital twin is the combination with model reduction techniques such as the Proper General Decomposition. The results are illustrated for several examples and scales, ranging from digitals twin for material tests in the lab over lab scale structural digital twins up to damage identification in field experiments.
