报告简介：
Bayesian statistical system identification framework provides a robust and reliable way for developing reliable finite element models (FEMs). To realize the practical model updating of large-scale civil engineering structures, a Bayesian inference framework based on software interaction is proposed. The newly developed framework was applied to update the FEM of a long-span cable-stayed bridge, Ting Kau Bridge in Hong Kong, utilizing measured modal parameters from the literature. The model updating results are found to be highly sensitive to the selection of model classes. Furthermore, the area of the main girder of the bridge deck is a key parameter influencing the lower modes of the cable-stayed bridge. A full-scale vehicular load test was conducted on the Ting Kau Bridge to obtain the displacement influence line through the data recorded by GPS sensors on the bridge. The set of measured influence lines is employed to verify the accuracy of the updated FEM. The results demonstrate that the characteristics of the FEM updated using the proposed Bayesian model updating framework based on measured dynamic properties are consistent with the structural characteristics of the bridge. The proposed framework can facilitate the structural health monitoring of large-scale civil engineering structures.
