The Yellow Frame: Experimental Studies and Remote Monitoring of the Structural Health Monitoring Benchmark Structure

摘要

This paper provides a summary of the various vibration tests that have been recently conducted on the test frame that has been used for various studies, starting from the IASC-ASCE benchmark for vibration damage identification technologies created in the early 2000s. The tests conducted include ambient-vibrations of various configurations of the test frame, which simulate different levels of structural damage. A detailed description of the conducted tests, as well as modal analyses of selected damage scenarios are included in the paper. This system will be online by mid-2018, and will allow interested parties to acquire real-time data from ambient vibration tests. Long term damage detection studies are also possible to be conducted.
