Informationen zum Autor Siu-Seong Law is is an Associate Professor with the Civil and Structural Engineering Department of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, prior to which he spent several years in the civil engineering industry with especial experience with long-span bridges. Klappentext Exceptionally useful in monitoring structural health, Damage Models and Algorithms for Assessment of Structures under Operating Conditions provides the suitable algorithms to convert collected data in order to gain knowledge of the condition of an infrastructure for maintenance scheduling purposes. It addresses developments in time response series and its derivatives including the wavelet-based impulse response function and also discusses loads on the structure (vehicular load, the ground micro tremor and ambient random excitation from the supports) in the conditions assessment. In addition, it examines the treatment of uncertainties and the study of their propagation in the inverse problem of structural condition assessment. Zusammenfassung Presents the suitable algorithms to convert collected data in order to gain knowledge of the condition of an infrastructure for maintenance scheduling purposes. This book addresses developments in time response series and its derivatives including the wavelet-based impulse response function. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Introduction 2.
