Finite element based structural damage detection using artificial boundary conditions

Finite element models can be used to discern the location and severity of damage in structures. This is frequently pursued by using the differences in measured and computed natural frequencies, in conjunction with the sensitivities calculated using the FE model. Given that a modal test produced a...
