EFFICIENCY OF 1D CNNS IN FINITE ELEMENT MODEL PARAMETER ESTIMATION USING SYNTHETIC DYNAMIC RESPONSES

. A critical step of building a reliable Finite Element (FE) model is closing the gap between the actual and the simulated structural behaviour by utilizing FE model updating methods. Current updating methods typically require hand-crafted features such as natural frequencies and mode shapes. As a result, limitations in identifying these features are becoming also limitations in the updating process. With the ability to utilize raw data, Deep-Learning (DL) algorithms have the potential to avoid such limitations. This paper aims to validate the efficiency of 1D Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) in estimating FE model parameters using synthetic acceleration data. The performance of 1D CNNs was tested on a simple FE beam model. The influence of training pair numbers, and acceleration signal duration on the algorithm performance was evaluated. The results indicate that the 1D CNNs have the ability to estimate FE model parameters with high accuracy. Final results indicate that the standard damage detection and the more novel model parameter estimation, through using 1D CNNs, can be practised synchronously with equally good results.
