Bayesian finite element model updating
(2019)In this chapter, the implementation of the reduced-order models within Bayesian finite element model updating is explored. The Bayesian framework for model parameter estimation, model selection, and robust predictions of ... -
Bayesian optimal estimation for output-only nonlinear system and damage identification of civil structures
(2018)This paper presents a new framework for output-only nonlinear system and damage identification of civil structures. This framework is based on nonlinear finite element (FE) model updating in the time-domain, using only the ... -
A Nonlinear Model Inversion Method for Joint System Parameter, Noise, and Input Identification of Civil Structures
(2017)This paper presents a framework for nonlinear system identification of civil structures using sparsely measured dynamic output response of the structure. Using a sequential maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) approach, the ... -
Reliability sensitivity analysis of stochastic finite element models
(2015)This contribution presents a scheme for integrating a model reduction technique into a simulation-based method for reliability sensitivity analysis of a class of medium/large nonlinear finite element models under stochastic ... -
Seismic analysis and design of industrial pressure vessels
(2011)The present paper focuses on the seismic analysis and design of horizontal-cylindrical and vertical-cylindrical pressure vessels. First, a comparison of the seismic provisions in ASME B&PV code and in EN 13445-3 is conducted ... -
Seismic retrofitting of steel and concrete structures using low-yield strength shear panels
(2005)The paper addresses the problem of seismic retrofitting of existing concrete structures through an innovative methodology based on low yield strength metal shear panels. These panels are introduced in specific places of ...
