A Coupled Neural Networks Method for Structural Damage Identification

A three-level identification model is proposed in the damage identification of structures.The BPNN and ART neural networks,which are based on error propagation algorithm and self-adaptive resonance theory respectively,are coupled in this model to improve its performance.The damage of structures could be identified step by step.First ART neural networks are employed to identify the occurrence of the damage,and then the location and grade of the damage is confirmed by using the genetic algorithm to search for the optimal BP neural networks.It can be concluded from the numerical analyses of the benchmark structures that satisfactory results could be obtained by using this coupled neural networks method.The coupled method based on BPNN and ART could identify the occurrence,location and grade of the damage and it can efficiently monitor the status of on-line structures.
