The Finite Element Model

An experimental study was made for the identification procedure of time-varying modal parameters and the finite element model updating technique of a beam-like thermal structure in both steady and unsteady high temperature environments. An improved time-varying autoregressive method was proposed first to extract the instantaneous natural frequencies of the structure in the unsteady high temperature environment. Based on the identified modal parameters, then, a finite element model for the structure was updated by using Kriging meta-model and optimization-based finite-element model updating method. The temperature-dependent parameters to be updated were expressed as low-order polynomials of temperature increase, and the finite element model updating problem was solved by updating several coefficients of the polynomials. The experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of the time-varying modal parameter identification method and showed that the instantaneous natural frequencies of the updated model well tracked the trends of the measured values with high accuracy.

Environment Effect

Structural finite element model (FEM) updating in dynamics usually deemed the measured modal parameters as the goal. By modifying the theoretical FEM, the updated modal parameters obtained by the analytical FEM would finally tend to the testing results. But the own complexity of the civil structure leads the optimization problem of FEM updating to be super-size and high non-linear performance. Moreover, the uncertainty and nonuniformity of the structures, material and the environment effect cause the uncertainty of the updating parameters, even the optimization objective function of FEM updating. These features has brought greater difficulty to the model updating in civil engineering structure, especially for the application field. Therefore, in this paper several kinds of methods for FEM updating would be introduced with the comparison of their advantages, disadvantages and the range of application. At the end of this paper, the problems remained to be solved in FEM updating of civil structures are to be presented.
