Sparse Damage Detection with Complex Group Lasso and Adaptive Complex Group Lasso

Journal Contribution - Journal Article

Sparsity-based methods have recently come to the foreground of damage detection applications posing a robust and efficient alternative for traditional approaches. At the same time, low-frequency inspection is known to enable global monitoring with waves propagating over large distances. In this paper, a single sensor complex Group Lasso methodology for the problem of structural defect localization by means of compressive sensing and complex low-frequency response functions is presented. The complex Group Lasso methodology is evaluated on composite plates with induced scatterers. An adaptive setting of the methodology is also proposed to further enhance resolution. Results from both approaches are compared with a full-array, super-resolution MUSIC technique of the same signal model. Both algorithms are shown to demonstrate high and competitive performance.
