The implementation of a reliable process in «Structural Health Monitoring» is primarily based on fully dynamic methods. Hence the question arises: «How can a quasistatic structure be affected by excitatory sources?» and «To what extent?»
There is no single answer as there are several possible variables such as looseness, cracks, inadequate load designs, etc. Therefore, vibrational analysis becomes relevant in detecting damages or quantifying the severity of damages and aids in predicting remaining life.
A flow of analysis and steps can be generated to help in logical, intuitive organization, and measurement gathering (with accelerometers and strain gages) installed in strategic and appropriate locations. It’s important to emphasize that the knowhow, expertise, and training of the personnel involved in post-analysis must be satisfactory.
