Vibration-based prediction of fatigue damage accumulation in metallic structures by use of virtual sensing KU Leuven
Fatigue of metallic structures occurs when a structural component is subjected to cyclic loading.This problem arises for many engineering structures, such as railway bridges, wind turbines, and offshore structures. For existing structures, on site strain measurements allow to verify assumptions made in the design, including the response under dynamic loading, the number of load cycles the structure is subjected to, etc. This may allow for ...
