Abstract:
To effectively monitor the development of crack damage in precast shear walls under an earthquake, an improved probabilistic imaging analysis method based on the piezoelectric guided wave was proposed. The detected area was divided into multiple sub-regions by arranging array-sensors, and the effective signal was extracted by the coherence function between the emitted and received signals. The effective signal was utilized as the input signal, and the damage indices-based signal energy characteristic difference coefficient were calculated for each sub-region. Simultaneously, the damage indexes were filtered by the probability and statistical method to eliminate the influence of environmental factors. The damage probability imaging algorithm was applied to superpose imaging for all the cracks in the detected area and to extract the image threshold, which was used to realize the judgment, location and evolution analysis of the crack damage under seismic loads. Subsequently, the effectiveness of the proposed method and the crack damage evolution was verified by a shaking table test on a precast frame-shear wall structure in this paper. The results show that the proposed damage probability imaging method can directly and effectively detect the occurrence, location and evolution of crack damage under an earthquake. It provides a technical guarantee for the damage monitoring of precast structures. © 2022, Editorial Office of Journal of Building Structures. All right reserved.
