Study on hybrid model combining super learner and physic-based models for SHM in bridges using low-cost BWIM
项目名称: Study on hybrid model combining super learner and physic-based models for SHM in bridges using low-cost BWIM
摘要: Many structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques have been devised over the past decades. However, there is no one-size-fits-all solution that can be applied to all bridges for structural assessments. Bridge-based weight-in-motion systems (BWIM) use the structure’s response to estimate vehicles’ load distribution. This technology is primarily used to obtain vehicle axle weights efficiently in public. BWIM can be a candidate that overcomes the shortfall of SHM. The use of BWIM systems for SHM has rarely been investigated. The objectives are (1) to study and deploy low-cost BWIM sensors for accurate SHM, (2) to evaluate the S-BWIM system, and (3) assessment of the hybrid model capacity combining physics-based mathematical models (PSM) and practical machine-learning (ML) models. A new low-cost BWIM system verified with numerical results will be installed in the local area, Dallas, and Fort Worth (DFW). This study will help Region 6 communities, where low-cost measurements are already used, and prediction models are publicly available for monitoring both traffic loads and bridge conditions. The development of a hybrid model generally adaptable for various conditions of bridges will be a major contribution to the research community. A comparative study of the proposed machine learning algorithm (super learner) with low-cost BWIM sensors will also be implemented in Region 6.
