Abstract:

In this paper, a large-span steel tied arch bridge's Bayesian FEMU is carried out based on the ambient vibration data. Firstly, the ERA method is used for modal identification. Then, the benchmark FE model of this bridge is established. Based on the sensitivity analysis, six updating parameters significantly affecting the natural frequency are selected. Subsequently, the objective function of the FEMU is established, and the DRAM algorithm is utilized to simulate the parameter samples conforming to the posterior distribution. Finally, the uncertainty analysis of the updated items is carried out. After FEMU, the results show that the model's frequency uncertainty is reduced, and the theoretical frequencies are highly consistent with the identified frequencies.
