PARAMETER OPTIMIZATION OF COVARIANCE-DRIVEN STOCHASTIC SUBSPACE IDENTIFICATION METHOD BASED ON SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS

  • The accurate estimation of the modal properties of civil structures in operational modal analysis is critical in many applications, including structural health monitoring. Based on the sensitivity analysis, the model system order N and the number of block rows of the Toeplitz matrix i are investigated. The rules of their influence on the results of modal identification in covariance-driven stochastic subspace identification (SSI-Cov) are developed. The parameter optimization of SSI-Cov algorithm is analyzed based on a classical numerical example and the field measured data of the ancient Tibetan wall. The system order is identified through the theory of singular entropy increment. The recommended value of the number of block rows of Toeplitz matrix is proposed. The basis of the recommended value is the condition number of Toeplitz matrix or system matrix and the variation coefficient of the identification result. The research shows that: the smaller the condition number of the Toeplitz matrix or of the system matrix, the higher the accuracy of the calculation result, the smaller the coefficient of variation of the recognition frequency and damping ratio, and the better the quality of the corresponding modal stability diagram. The system order N of the structure can be accurately identified through the singular entropy increment theory. It is equal to the corresponding order when the first-order sensitivity of the singular entropy increment drops to zero. The suggested value of the number of block rows of the Toeplitz matrix i is between 2\beta and 4\beta , in which \beta is the ratio of the sampling frequency to the fundamental frequency. Based on the parameter optimization method proposed, the dynamic characteristics of the ancient Tibetan wall are effectively identified, including frequency, mode shape and damping ratio.
