Abstract

The method of structural diagnostics of composite structures presented in this paper is based on discrete wavelet transform of displacements of modal shapes with usage of fractional B-spline wavelets. An application of such wavelets makes possible to improve the sensitivity of the method, which allows for detection and identification of even small damages occurred in the structure. In order to select the most sensitive wavelet bases for the analysis the optimization study was carried out, where the highest ratio of peak, which indicated the damage, to other values of detail coefficients and possibly short support of a peak in the location of the damage were chosen as the optimization criteria. Obtained results allow for the evaluation of the possible best wavelet bases for the damage identification of one-dimensional composite structures.
