Clean measurement data can sometimes be difficult to obtain due to disturbances on site from other construction activities. This paper presents the results from a unique opportunity to conduct full modal t

Therefore, various wireless sensor nodes have been developed to replace the conventional wired system. However, there remain lots of issues to be resolved such as power supply, da

One could argue that the interaction between structural system and human is more complicated, specially, that the human might react with the structure even though he or she is sti

Because damage-sensitive features also exhibit variation due to environmental and operational changes, these comparisons are not always straightforward and an automated, probabilistic approach is necessary, particularl
