Abstract
In an era marked by increasing demands for stability and durability in construction, the importance of damage detection in concrete structures cannot be overstated. As these structures underpin the safety and longevity of vital assets, this paper embarks on a comprehensive exploration of methodologies to enhance precision and reliability in 2D concrete plate damage detection. By focusing on the interpolation of damage index values and leveraging the insights gained from energy loss analysis and the characterization of the time of arrival of signals, we address the pressing need for improved non-destructive damage detection techniques. Our study encompasses a range of simulation attempts, each involving various interpolation parameters, and systematically evaluates their performance. The culmination of this research identifies the most effective combination of techniques and parameters, leading to the best results in damage detection. This multidimensional investigation promises to provide valuable contributions to the field of structural health monitoring, benefiting both researchers and practitioners engaged in the evaluation of concrete structures.
