Modelling and Estimation of Damage in Structures is a comprehensiveguide to solving the type of modelling and estimation problems associated with the physics of structural damage. • Provides a model-based approach to damage identification • Presents an in-depth treatment of probability theory and random processes • Covers both theory and algorithms for implementing maximum likelihood and Bayesian estimation approaches • Includes experimental examples of all detection and identification approaches • Provides a clear means by which acquired data can be used to make decisions regarding maintenance and usage of a structure
