Abstract

Possible yielding of the cross-section of a structure might significantly decrease the safety margin of the investigated structure. The cross-section yielding causes a change of structure stiffness and, further, dynamic characteristics. The measurement of the changes of the dynamic parameters may provide information necessary to identify the load causing yielding of the cross-section, and further the yielding index (calculated when the load causing yielding is known) enables evaluation of structure safety margin. In the paper the semi-Bayesian neural networks are utilized to solve the identification problem.
