Damage Identification in a Multi-DOF System under Uncertainties Using Optimization Algorithms

In this study, four optimization algorithms are applied to identify the damage in a multi-DOF dynamical system composed of masses, springs, and dampers. The damage is introduced artificially by choosing a lower value for the stiffness. The applied algorithms include Nelder-Mead Simplex, BFGS Quasi-N...
