Abstract

Guided wave-based Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) tools utilize the guided wave responses to interrogate damage in structures. This research demonstrates the use of various objective functions in single (mono) objective and multi-objective genetic algorithms for damage identification in isotropic 1D structures. The time domain spectral element method and a deep-learning-based surrogate is utilized for simulating wave propagation in an isotropic cracked rod. The genetic algorithms employ results ('numerical experiment') obtained from the spectral element model and the deep-learning-based surrogate to determine the optimized crack locations and crack depths as output parameters. The obtained optimized parameters from genetic algorithms are compared in terms of errors for various objective functions.
