A Finite Element (FE) model which can precisely predict the actual dynamic responses of a bridge is necessary for accurate condition assessment and health monitoring purposes.   However, most of the bridge FE models initially developed ...

This article presents the implementation of a calibration procedure for a finite element (FE) model of a state highway bridge using sensory data measured on the bridge. The objective is to modify the high-fidelity FE model of the bridge so that its dynamic behaviour...

In this paper we focus on the optimal placement of sensors for state estimation-based continuous health monitoring of structures using three approaches. The first aims to minimize the static estimation error of the structure deflections, using the linear stiffness...
