The paper addresses damage detection in multi-story, multi-bay plane frame building structures, where conventional shear structure models can yield inaccurate results due to modeling error. The authors propose a reduced “beam-like” frame model with one translational and two rotational degrees of freedom per floor, then develop a time-domain regression method (TDRM) using the spectral density between measured horizontal floor acceleration and a reference response to estimate equivalent layer stiffness and damping. In a demonstration on a five-story, two-bay frame, the method was reported to accurately identify, locate, and quantify stiffness changes associated with structural damage, while the study is presented as a single illustrative structure/modeling setup and is a preprint under review. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

Shear structure model is the most frequently used to model for the damage detection of frame building structures. However, due to the existence of modelling error, using a shear structure model to perform damage detection of a complex frame structure often results in inaccurate detection results. In this paper, a novel reduced model for the frame is proposed, which converts a multi-story multi-bay plane frame into a beam-like model, having one translational and two rotational degrees-of-freedom for each floor. Based on the new model, a novel time-domain regression method (TDRM) was established using the spectral density function between the horizontal acceleration of the frame floor and the reference response to identify the equivalent layer stiffness and damping parameters. Finally, a five-story two-bay frame structure is used to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed time-domain regression method of estimating structural parameters and identifying structural damage.The results show that this method can identify, locate, and quantify the structural stiffness changes accurately.
