The past decades have been marked by a significant increase in research interest in
nonlinearities in micro-cracked and cracked solids. As a result, a number of different …

Identification of defects in structures and its components is a crucial aspect in decision
making about their repair and total replacement. Failure to detect the faults has various …

Civil infrastructure plays an important role in daily life. If cracks are not found in time, they
may cause immeasurable losses to people and property. Therefore, timely and accurate …

Structures are weakened by cracks. When the crack size increases in course of time, the
structure becomes weaker than its previous condition. Finally, the structure may breakdown …

In this paper, an empirical mode decomposition (EMD) based approach for rotating machine
fault diagnosis is investigated. EMD is a new time–frequency analyzing method for nonlinear …

A Review of Damage Detection and Health Monitoring of Mechanical Systems from Changes in
the Measurement of Linear and Non-linea Page 1 A Review of Damage Detection and Health …

This paper presents an analytical study on the free and forced vibration of inhomogeneous
Euler–Bernoulli beams containing open edge cracks. The beam is subjected to an axial …

One of the most important difficulties faced by in situ structural health monitoring approaches
when establishing a relationship between a specific damage mechanism and its acoustic …

Experimental evaluation of the flexural forced vibrations of a steel cantilever beam having a
transverse surface crack extending uniformly along the width of the beam was performed …

Classical nonlinear vibration methods used for structural damage detection are often based
on higher-and sub-harmonic generation. However, nonlinearities arising from sources other …
