    A Mode Shape Assembly Algorithm by Using Two Stage Bayesian Fast Fourier Transform Approach
    (Academic Press Inc., 2019) Hızal, Çağlayan; Turan, Gürsoy; Aktaş, Engin; Ceylan, Hasan
    Operational modal analysis may require identifying global modal shapes by using multiple setup measurements. For this purpose, various algorithms have been developed which make use of the Bayesian approach to estimate the global mode shapes. The main motivation of the available Bayesian approaches is based on the estimation of the optimal global mode shape vector directly from Fast Fourier Transform data or assembling the local mode shapes that are identified in the individual setups by using Gaussian approximation. In this study, the two-stage Bayesian Fast Fourier Transform Approach which is originally applied to single setups is implemented to multiple setup problems for well separated modes. Analytically it is shown that the resulting formulation is the same for the mode shape assembly by using the Gaussian approximation. In addition, the weights of individual setups in the global mode shape vector is analytically calculated which depend on the Hessian matrix for local mode shapes. To validate the proposed methodology, a numerical example that considers setup-to-setup variability of modal signal-noise ratios is presented. For comparison purposes a ten-story shear frame model is experimentally investigated, and the measurements of a benchmark bridge structure are considered in the verification of the current procedure.

    A Two-Stage Bayesian Algorithm for Finite Element Model Updating by Using Ambient Response Data From Multiple Measurement Setups
    (Academic Press, 2020) Hızal, Çağlayan; Turan, Gürsoy
    This study presents a two-stage Bayesian finite element model updating procedure by using acceleration response measurements obtained from multiple setups. In the presented methodology, parametric uncertainties for the modal parameters are estimated by using the Bayesian Fast Fourier Transform Approach (BFFTA). Different from the previous Bayesian methods, a block diagonal covariance matrix is modeled for prior estimation of measured modal parameters. In addition, the modelling error in the eigenvalue equations is considered as soft constraints to be updated. Numerical and experimental studies are presented to validate the proposed method. The effect of soft constraints on the identification results as well as their posterior uncertainties are investigated. According to the results, it is shown that the proposed methodology can identify the most probable finite element model parameters with high level of accuracy. In addition, the posterior uncertainties obtained by the proposed procedure are significantly small when compared to the methods that consider rigid constraints for prediction and/or modelling error.
