A New Transmissibility Based Indicator of Local Variation in Structure and Its Application for Damage Detection

The presence of damage in engineering structures could usually cause local variation in stiffness or damping, and therefore it is meaningful to detect the variation as early as possible for protecting the engineering structure from serious damage. In the study, a novel method is developed to detect...
