Applied to the structural damage identification, Modal Flexibility is better than the Modal Frequency and Modal Displacement, the indicators of Flexibility Curvature are effective and sensitive. This paper proposes a new detection indicator which is Flexibility Curvature Difference Rate (FCDR) that by using the change rate of diagonal elements of flexibility curvature difference when before and after damage. The numerical examples of a simple beam, a continuous beam and a frame with the damage conditions of the different positions and different degrees are used to verify FCDR. The result shows that FCDR can well identify the numerical examples damages, and sensitively diagnose the damage near the supports of beam and the nodes of framework.

Damage severity identification is an important content among structural damage identification. In order to avoid the disadvantages of conventional BPNN, a modified BP neural network was proposed to identify structural damage severity in this paper. The modified BPNN was trained by using structural modal frequency qua BPNN input, and then used to forecast structural damage severity. Finally, the results of simulation experiment of composite material cantilever girder show that the improved method is very effective for damage severity identification and possess great applied foreground.
