Abstract
This article presents an evaluation of FRF based damage indexes associated with the spectral element method (SEM). Eight indexes were used: FRAC (Frequency Domain Assurance Criterion), FAAC (Frequency Amplitude Assurance Criterion), GSC (Global Shape Criterion), GAC (Global Amplitude Criterion), Monnier’s and Banerjee’s Damage Index (DI), Average Integration GSC/GAC (AIGSC, AIGAC). These were applied to relate the frequency response functions of variably damaged and undamaged beams. The results were then compared to determine the best-suited indexes for damage detection and size evaluation.
