Locating Impact on Structural Plate Using Principal Component Analysis and Support Vector Machines
A new method which integrates principal component analysis (PCA) and support vector machines (SVM) is presented to predict the location of impact on a clamped aluminum plate structure. When the plate is knocked using an instrumented hammer, the induced time-varying strain signals are collected by fo...
