Abstract

This paper presents a damage assessment method using the measurement data of restoring force from a sub-structural system. A normalized hysteretic energy (NHE) for bi-linear model is developed as a function structural period and system ductility, which serves as a reference-based model for damage assessment. The stiffness degradation, strength deterioration and pinching effect in the inelastic hysteretic model are then determined from a series of nonlinear time history analysis of an inelastic SDOF system. Next, modification factors on the NHE for sensitivities of the inelastic model parameters are developed. Based on the identified model parameters by measuring the inelastic hysteretic behavior of the restoring force incorporated with the reference-based NHE model and the modification factor, the percentage of structural damage in relating to strength and stiffness degradation can be evaluated. Verification of the proposed method by simulation and experimental data of the cyclic loading and shaking table tests of the RC frame are conducted.
