Uncertainty and Sensitivity Analysis of Damage Identification Results Obtained Using Finite Element Model Updating

A full-scale seven-story reinforced concrete shear wall building structure was tested on the UCSD- NEES shake table in the period October 2005-January 2006. The shake table tests were designed so as to damage the building progressively through several historical seis- mic motions reproduced on the shake table. A sensitivity- based finite element (FE) model updating method was used to identify damage in the building. The estimation uncertainty in the damage identification results was ob- served to be significant, which motivated the authors to perform, through numerical simulation, an uncertainty analysis on a set of damage identification results. This study investigates systematically the performance of FE model updating for damage identification. The dam- aged structure is simulated numerically through a change in stiffness in selected regions of a FE model of the shear wall test structure. The uncertainty of the identified damage (location and extent) due to variability of five input factors is quantified through analysis-of-variance
