Stiffness-Mass Ratios Method for a baseline determination and damage assessment of a benchmark structure /

A new method based on ratios between stiffness and mass values from the eigenvalue problem is introduced and applied to the benchmark structure to obtain baseline modal parameters utilizing damaged state information of the structure. The benchmark problem on structural health monitoring developed by...
