After evaluating several existing model refinement and model reduction/expansion techniques, a two-step damage detection approach was developed for large structures with limited instrumentation.
The damage accumulation and the elastic strain variation were interpreted in the framework of the multi-step damage accumulation (MSDA) model.
Based on this newly defined strain statistical moment index and the least square optimization algorithm, a two-step damage identification method is proposed.
We determined the influence of the particle size and concentration in the incubation suspension on the damage threshold and suggest a two-step damage mechanism occurs during the irradiation with multiple pulses.
In Turkey, there was widespread expectation that the House committee vote and any further steps would damage relations between the countries.
Recent Israeli governments, particularly the one led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Mr. Cordesman argued, have ignored the national security concerns of its biggest benefactor, the United States, and instead have taken steps that damage American interests abroad.
There are two steps for damage evaluation (T3 and T6).
