摘要

An effective method for damage detection of plate structures using the extreme learning machine (ELM) is proposed in this study. With the ELM, the mode shapes and natural frequencies of a damaged plate are treated as the input and the damage states in the plate elements as the output. The proposed method was applied to two numerical examples, namely, a cantilever and a plate with four-fixed supports containing one or several damages with and without noise in the modal data. The results obtained reveal that the methodology can be used as an effective technique for the damage identification of plate structures using the modal data and ELM.
