Validation and updating of industrial models based on the constitutive relation error

The validation and updating of models of industrial structures based on the concept of constitutive relation error is treated. The method is extended to the problem of the detection of defective sensors. The capabilities of the method are illustrated on the structure of the SYLDA5 double launching system of the European space launcher Ariane 5. The results obtained are encouraging and demonstrate the efficiency of the method for updating models of industrial structures.
