Abstract
As one of the most catastrophic natural disasters worldwide, earthquakes and their effect on structures are very important to structural health monitoring (SHM), particularly for the ones living around the Pacific ring of fire. In this regard, SHM techniques with real-time or online processing can be used to identify states of structures, track modal parameters, provide a warning message about damage, and help post-earthquake reconnaissance and rehabilitation. For instance, a recursive formulation based on subspace identification (SI) has been demonstrated that it is capable to track system changes. In this study, a recursive subspace identification (RSI) algorithm with a fixed window is proposed to investigate the time-varying dynamic characteristics under seismic excitations. Subsequently, some suggestion is described and discussed for practical implementation. For verifying the proposed algorithm, different datasets from full-scale experiments are applied to examine its applicability. In other words, the practicability of implementing RSI in real-time or online has been developed and examined in this paper.
