These analyses are mainly based on numerical models. Accordingly, the generated results depend on the quality of the used models. Therefore it is very important that the models describe the considered systems such that the behaviour of the physical structure is realistically represented. As any model is based on assumptions, there is always a certain degree of uncertainty present in the results of a simulation based on the respective numerical model. To minimise these uncertainties in the prediction of the response of a structure to a certain loading, it has become common practice to update or calibrate the parameters of a numerical model based on observations of the structural behaviour of the respective existing system. The determination of the behaviour of an existing structure requires experimental investigations. If the numerical analyses concern the dynamic response of a structure it is sensible to direct the experimental investigations towards the identification of the dynamic structural behaviour which is determined by the modal parameters of the system. In consequence, several methods for the experimental identification of modal parameters have been developed since the 1980ies. Due to various technical restraints in civil engineering which limit the possibilities to excitate a structure with economically reasonable effort, several methods have been developed that allow a modal identification form tests with an ambient excitation. The approach of identifying modal parameters only from measurements of the structural response without precise knowledge of the excitation is known as output-only or operational modal analysis. Since operational modal analysis (OMA) can be considered as a link between numerical modelling and simulation on the one hand and the dynamic behaviour of an existing structure on the other hand, the respective algorithms connect both the concepts of structural dynamics and mathematical tools applied within the processing of experimental data. Accordingly, the related theoretical topics are revised after an introduction into the topic. Several OMA methods have been developed over the last decades. The most established algorithms are presented here and their application is illustrated by means of both a small numerical and an experimental example. Since experimentally obtained results always underly manifold influences, an appropriate postprocessing of the results is necessary for a respective quality assessment. This quality assessment does not only require respective indicators but should also include the quantification of uncertainties. One special feature in modal testing is that it is common to instrument the structure in different sensor setups to improve the spacial resolution of identified mode shapes. The modal information identified from tests in several setups needs to be merged a posteriori. Algorithms to cope with this problem are also presented. Due to the fact that the amount of data generated in modal tests can become very large, manual processing can become extremely expensive or even impossible, for example in the case of a long-term continuous structural monitoring. In these situations an automated analysis and postprocessing are essential. Descriptions of respective methodologies are therefore also included in this work. Every structural system in civil engineering is unique and so also every identification of modal parameters has its specific challenges. Some aspects that can be faced in practical applications of operational modal analysis are presented and discussed in a chapter that is dedicated specific problems that an analyst may have to overcome. Case studies of systems with very close modes, with limited accessibility as well as the application of different OMA methods are described and discussed. In this context the focus is put on several types of uncertainty that may occur in the multiple stages of an operational modal analysis. In literature only very specific uncertainties at certain stages of the analysis are addressed. Here, the topic of uncertainties has been considered in a broader sense and approaches for treating respective problems are suggested. Eventually, it is concluded that the methodologies of operatinal modal analysis and related technical solutions have been well-engineered already. However, as in any discipline that includes experiments, a certain degree of uncertainty always remains in the results. From these conclusions has been derived a demand for further research and development that should be directed towards the minimisation of these uncertainties and to a respective optimisation of the steps and corresponding parameters included in an operational modal analysis. 263 urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20191030-40061 10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.4006 Institut für Strukturmechanik (ISM) OPUS4-3 Dissertation Huth, Olaf Ein adaptiertes Polyreferenz-Verfahren und seine Anwendung in der Systemidentifikation Die vorliegende Arbeit gliedert sich in das Gebiet der Systemidentifikation ein. Besonderes Augenmerk wird auf die Detektion, die Lokalisierung und die Quantifizierung von Systemveränderungen gerichtet. Für diese Ziele werden -basierend auf Schwingungsmessungen- modale Parameter sowie Ein- und Ausgangsgrößen im Frequenzbereich extrahiert. Die in dieser Arbeit entwickelte Adaption des Polyreferenz-Verfahrens beruht auf einer veränderten Bestimmung der Fundamentalmatrix mit Hilfe der verallgemeinerten Singulärwertzerlegung. Eine Vorfilterung, die eine Reduktion der Frequenzanteile im Signal bewirkt, ist dabei Voraussetzung. Diese basiert auf dem Einsatz rekursiver Filtertechiken und der einfachen Singulärwertzerlegung. Als Resultat können modale Parameter auch im Falle, wenn eng benachbarte und verrauschte Signalanteile vorliegen oder nur wenige Mess- und Anregungspunkte zur Verfügung stehen, präzise bestimmt und damit auch sehr geringe Syemveränderungen detektiert werden. Die mit dem adaptierten Polyreferenz-Verfahren extrahierten modalen Parameter werden in der Lokalisierung von Systemveränderungen eingesetzt. Zur Bestimmung modaler Parameter auch an realen Bauwerken wird die Konstruktion eines Impulshammers vorgestellt. Besonderes Gewicht wird dabei auf die Gestaltung des Erregerkraftspektrums gelegt. Die Arbeit enthält eine mögliche Vorgehensweise zum Abgleich von Finite-Elemente Modellen. In vielen praxisnahen Fällen sind weit weniger modale Parameter vorhanden, als freie, zum Abgleich bestimmte Parameter gesucht werden. Das Gleichungssystem ist schlechtgestellt und benötigt eine Regularisierung. Eine andere Möglichkeit zur Korrektur von Rechenmodellen bietet das Projektive Eingangsgrößenverfahren, das auf der Basis unvollständig gemessener Ein- und Ausgangsgrößen arbeitet. In einer Versagenswahrscheinlichkeitsstudie wird die Robustheit des Verfahrens gegenüber!
